Description
A quick, no-cook homemade sauce that replicates the tangy, creamy, and slightly sweet flavor of the classic fast-food Big Mac sauce using simple pantry staples.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Mayonnaise (full-fat preferred)
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Sweet Pickle Relish
- 1 teaspoon White Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Granulated Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and measure them out.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and ketchup until smooth.
- Stir in the sweet pickle relish, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
- Add the white vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, sugar, salt, and black pepper.
- Whisk vigorously until all ingredients are fully combined and smooth.
- Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning (more vinegar for tang, more sugar for sweetness) as needed.
- Transfer the sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve cold with burgers, fries, or as a dipping sauce.
Notes
For best results, let the sauce chill for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Use full-fat mayo for authentic texture. If the sauce thickens in the fridge, stir in a teaspoon of water or milk to thin it out. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Do not freeze as the mayo may separate.
