Quick Answer: The Special Savory Sauce costs $0.30 (116 kcal).
Creamy, lightly spicy, and tangy, this one blends BBQ, ketchup, and black pepper notes into something that doesn’t fit neatly into any one flavor category. It reads closer to a house special sauce than a straightforward dip, the kind of thing built specifically for BK rather than a generic condiment.
Compared to the BBQ Sauce, this one adds a peppery, tangier edge that keeps it from tasting like a plain sweet BBQ dip.

My Honest Take
The ingredient list here is longer and more layered than any other sauce covered on this site, tamarind puree, mustard bran, molasses, celery seed, which explains why the flavor comes across as more complex than a straightforward BBQ or ranch. Fat (10.9g) sits closer to the Hidden Valley Ranch’s 14g than the leaner tomato-based sauces like BBQ or Sweet & Sour.
It’s also the only sauce on the menu with egg and mustard listed as allergens, worth checking if you’re avoiding either. Order it through Burger King’s official website or the app.
