Open the jars of gyro satay sauce, chunky peanut butter, and Jimmy's satay sauce.

Add 1 jar of gyro satay sauce, 2 jars of chunky peanut butter, and 1/2 jar of Jimmy's satay sauce into a pan.

Fill one of the jars with hot water to smooth out the remaining peanut butter and add it to the pan.

Place the pan on medium heat and stir constantly to prevent sticking.

Continue stirring until the ingredients bind together and form a sauce.

Use a whisk to mix the sauce for better consistency.

Adjust the thickness of the sauce by adding more water for a thinner consistency or less for a thicker one.

Taste the sauce and add sugar to balance bitterness, starting with 2 tablespoons.

If desired, add salt to taste, though it may not be necessary due to the salt content in the sauces.

Once the sauce reaches a simmering point and is well mixed, it is done.
