How does steak sauce density compare to ketchup?

Steak sauce (1.150 g/ml) is less dense than ketchup (approximately 1.20–1.28 g/ml depending on formulation) because ketchup has a higher concentration of reduced tomato solids and sugar. Steak sauce is thinner and more pourable, which is why it falls between Worcestershire (1.162 g/ml) and regular vinegar in behavior.

How many grams is a cup of steak sauce?

At 1.150 g/ml, one cup (236.6 ml) of tomato-based steak sauce weighs approximately 272 g — about 35 g more than a cup of water. For large-batch recipes like pot roasts or meatloaf that call for ¼ cup or more of steak sauce, using weight ensures consistency across batches.

Tomato-based steak sauce (such as A.1. Original) is a condiment built on a tomato-vinegar base with Worcestershire sauce, raisins, orange peel, and spice blends. At 1.150 g/ml, its density is elevated by the tomato solids, vinegar acids, and dissolved sugars from raisins and natural sweeteners. A tablespoon weighs approximately 17.0 g; a cup weighs approximately 272 g. Pours moderately — slightly thicker than Worcestershire, slightly thinner than ketchup.
