Ingredients

Servings

For the Big Mac Sauce -

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons pickle relish dill or sweet + 2 tsp extra juices
  • 1 tablespoon onion minced
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar not needed if using sweet relish
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

For 4 Big Macs –

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 4 Hamburger Bun +4 bottom buns if you want to add the quintessential McDonald's center bun. I left it out, with sesame seed
  • Big Mac sauce
  • 8 lices American cheese
  • 1 cup iceberg lettuce shredded
  • 4 tablespoons onion white, minced
  • 12+ dill pickles slices
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • salt pepper, and onion powder

Instructions

To make Big Mac Sauce -

  1. Set out a medium mixing bowl or measuring picture. Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, minced onion, yellow mustard, sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Make sure to add in a couple extra teaspoons of pickle relish juice for extra tang. Stir until smooth. Then cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

To make Big Macs -

  1. Form the ground meat in to 8 very thin patties that are wider than the buns. Sprinkle both sides of each patty with salt, pepper, and onion powder.
  2. Set a large skillet (or two large skillets, if you want to finish the burgers all at once) over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, place one tablespoon of butter in the skillet and place four patties in the pan. Press the patties extra flat with a wide spatula. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, per side. During the last minute in the skillet add a slice of American cheese over the top of each patty so it has time to melt.
  3. Meanwhile, open the buns. Slather Big Mac sauce on both sides of the bun. Layer shredded lettuce on the bottom bun, and minced onion on the top bun.
  4. Stack two all-beef patties and pickles over the lettuce. If adding the center bun, place it in between the two hamburger patties.
  5. If using one skillet repeat with the remaining butter and burger patties. Serve immediately.
