  2. For the Chick-Fil-A Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk the yellow mustard, barbecue sauce, mayonnaise, honey, and garlic powder until uniformly combined.
  3. For the Chicken Finger Sauce: In a third bowl, aggressively whisk the mayonnaise, ketchup, garlic salt, black pepper, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce together.
  4. For the Honey Mustard: In a fourth bowl, whisk mayonnaise, yellow mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, and salt until smooth.

  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours (preferably overnight) before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dried spices to bloom.
