I love ketchup as much as the next American does, but when I was designing the menu for Bobby’s Burger Palace, I knew that I wanted to have a little something extra to offer in the squeeze bottles. The simple addition of pureed chipotle in adobo gives prepared ketchup an exciting smoky edge, while still keeping its sweet yet tangy identity intact.

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
