Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cup quality mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons natural ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder

Method
 

  1. Combine the base: In a medium bowl, add mayonnaise, ketchup, and yellow mustard. Stir until smooth.
  2. Add flavor builders: Mix in dill pickle relish and finely minced onion. Stir well so everything spreads evenly.
  3. Season the sauce: Add white vinegar, sugar, paprika, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  4. Mix thoroughly: Whisk until the sauce is creamy and fully combined. I like to taste and adjust salt or relish at this stage.
  5. Chill before using: Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The flavor gets better after resting.
Personal tip: I always let it sit overnight when making big mac copycat sauce. The next day it tastes even closer to the original.

    Notes

    1. Let the sauce rest at least 30 minutes before serving.
    2. Chop onion very fine for smooth texture.
    3. Use real mayonnaise for best results.
    4. Taste and adjust seasoning before chilling.
    5. Store in glass container for better freshness.
