Notes

  • Usually Big Mac is served with only one slice of cheese. But we love it extra cheesy.
  • This sauce is enough for 3 Big Mac sandwiches.
  • I've tried it without sugar but it did not taste as good. Also tested it without French dressing but felt it was better with it. So test for yourself if you wish to and compare.
  • We've consumed this sauce right after it was done and on another happy occasion after it was refrigerated for almost 24 hours. The difference is big. So I highly recommend making it the day before you fire up your grill, you'll be amazed.This happens to be a very nice sauce that was a game changer for my homemade burgers.
  • To Store: Place in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Give it a quick stir before using.
  • Nutritional facts and time calculated only for the sauce.
  • Also serve this sauce with: Reuben sandwich,  kofta wraps or over delicious air fried burgers.
