McDonald’s Big Mac Special Sauce recipe

If you like Big Macs, it’s probably because of that tasty “secret” spread that is plopped onto both decks of the world’s most popular double-decker hamburger. So what’s so special about this sauce? After all, it’s basically just thousand island dressing, right? Pretty much. But this sauce has a bit more sweet pickle relish in it than a typical thousand island salad slather.

Also, I found that this clone comes close to the original with the inclusion of French dressing. It’s an important ingredient – ketchup just won’t do it. That, along with a sweet & sour flavor that comes from vinegar and sugar, makes this sauce go well on any of your home burger creations, whether they’re Big Mac clones or not.

Big Mac Special Sauce

This is the closest “special sauce” clone you’ll find anywhere.

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons French dressing
  • 4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced white onion
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

1. Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Stir well.

2. Place sauce in a covered container and refrigerate for several hours, or overnight, so that the flavors blend. Stir the sauce a couple of times as it chills.

Makes about 3/4 cup.

I love mcdonalds its the best for hangovers and I WILL USE THIS AND LOVE IT THANK-YOU. Go find something better to eat like KFC you fools. Bet you care about that secret Kernal reciepe dont yous DONT YOUS huh answer MEEEE!

  • So Micky uses tartar sauce as their secret sauce? What a cheat! So let me ask you what they use for meat? Oh - sorry - cardboard -- I withdraw the question.

  • look I don't care about the sauce.....I just want to know why the flipping burger looks more like a small mac compare to when it first was introduced to the world!

  • It is still shhit and still will kill you with its calories... but I like McDonalds because sometimes when u pick up women at a club instead of feeding them on the way home u take them to drive thru for a quick bite and drive to hotel

  • sounds pretty accurate - i personaly have never been a big fan of the big mac or its secret sauce. It just always tasted like bad thousand island dressing to me. I do like good thousand island dressing though. Thanks for the recipe - keep up the good work :)

  • you are a life saver i really made it the way you tought me how and it workd and taste the same 100 percent thanks
