    Me and my Wife have a dilemma; we both love ranch dressing and whenever we go to restaurants the ranch tastes awesome, yet whenever we go to the grocery store the best ranch we can find (so far) tastes meh....

    As far as the different places I've gone so far the best ranch we can remember is at Floyd's Cajun Seafood and Texas Steakhouse here is Pearland. But I'm wondering is there anyway to get restaurant quality ranch dressing anywhere or do all the restaurants hold the secret to good ranch and they just aren't willing to ever let it go. I guess my question is who makes/has the best ranch in your opinion? Ideas on where I can buy good tasting ranch?

    Thanks in advance :)

    Can't help you, but I love it when people say I'm trying to eat healthy, so I'm eating a salad but it ends up looking like they're eating ranch with a side of lettuce.

    The secret is they make their own.

    All you need is ranch seasoning packet or make your own, buttermilk, and quality mayo, preferably homemade. The reason the ranch at restaurants is usually better than store bought is the type of mayo used as the base.

    FWIW, I'm not even going to pretend this is for a salad. This is for all those wonderful foods that come with nice crispy breading, perfect spices, that make you rub yo' belly and slap yo' mama!!!

    Have you tried hidden valley ranch mix? That's by far the best stuff I've gotten at a store. It's not quite up their with the best at restaurants but way better than any store bought bottle. I don't know why the mix is better than their bottled hiden valley ranch, but it is.

    PS: wingstop ranch is the

    I find Wingstop's ranch too watery. My favorite has to be from Buffalo Wild Wings; it has creamier, tastier ranch. (Swoly-D: TWSS)
