Text that says Copycat Texas Roadhouse Ranch above is a photo of the ingredients and below is a photo of a salad with ranch on it.

This copycat Texas Roadhouse ranch is so easy to make at home. It goes wonderfully over a fresh green salad.

Besides their famous rolls and honey butter another favorite of mine at Texas Roadhouse is their ranch dressing. It is just so darn good and I knew that I had to recreate the recipe at home.

A mason jar filled with ranch in it.

This copycat ranch recipe uses fresh ingredients and it does not use a packet of ranch. I have nothing against those packets but I don’t think they have the right flavor for a good steakhouse style ranch.

ingredients needed to make copycat Texas Roadhouse ranch dressing

For this recipe, you will need:

  • Sour cream: I recommend using the full fat kind for the best taste.
  • Buttermilk: If you don’t have any buttermilk, you can make a substitute by combining ½ cup of milk with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
  • Mayonnaise: I used Kraft but you can use whatever your favorite brand is. I’ve heard of people having good, restaurant quality results with Duke’s as well.
  • Onion powder, garlic powder, garlic salt, dried dill, cayenne pepper, and dried parsley: To give the salad dressing its flavor.
  • Lemon juice: If you can, use fresh for best results but the bottled kind will work too.
  • Salt and pepper: I recommend doing salt and pepper to taste.

You will also need a whisk.

How long will the dressing be good for?

You can keep this ranch dressing in your fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. I prefer to store mine in a mason jar.

How to make this copycat ranch

This recipe is very easy to make. In a small bowl, combine the spices and set aside.

Next, measure out your buttermilk, mayonnaise, lemon juice and sour cream and add them to a bowl.

Whisk everything together well and then let chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

      I’m so sorry this recipe didn’t work out for you. It’s had a lot of positive feedback so I’m surprised. Did you let it sit for a while before using (about 30 mins)? Sometimes it takes time for the flavors to come together.

      I have been looking for a copycat for this TRH ranch. I absolutely hate buttermilk ranch, and the texas roadhouse here in hot springs is definitely not buttermilk ranch. (It’s what my daughter and I call “the good ranch” lol) I’ve heard several people call it House dressing, but I’m not sure if that’s right.
