Description
Big Mac Sauce is the creamy, tangy, and slightly sweet burger sauce that makes any sandwich taste like a fast food favorite. With pantry staples like mayo, relish, and mustard, this easy homemade version is even better than the original—and perfect for burgers, fries, wraps, or dipping.
Ingredients
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp sweet pickle relish
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- ½ tsp paprika
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: ½ tsp sugar (for added sweetness)
Instructions
-
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, relish, mustard, vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
-
Whisk until smooth and fully blended.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning—add sugar if desired for a sweeter finish.
-
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
Notes
- Use dill relish in place of sweet relish for a tangier version—just add a pinch of sugar to balance it out.
- Add a splash of hot sauce or smoked paprika for extra heat or smokiness.
- Swap in low-fat mayo or Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
- Works great as a burger topping, sandwich spread, or dip for fries, chips, or veggies.
