Add mayonnaise, ketchup, and yellow mustard to a mixing bowl and stir until smooth and well combined.
Mix in pickle relish, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika, stirring thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.

Chilling enhances the flavor and thickens the sauce.
