Description

A very delicious, authentic, and most importantly great clone of a Big Mac® from McDonald's®.

Ingredients
  • ⅔ pound ground beef (85% lean)
  • 2 cups mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 ½ teaspoons white wine vinegar, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground paprika
  • 4 hamburger bun bottoms
  • 2 hamburger bun tops
  • 2 tablespoons minced onion, or to taste
  • ½ cup shredded lettuce, or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle slices, or to taste
  • 2 slices American cheese
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
  1. 1. Shape ground beef into 4 flat patties that will fit the hamburger buns. Place them on a tray lined with waxed paper; transfer to the freezer.
  2. 2. Mix mayonnaise, mustard, pickle relish, white wine vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika in a bowl to make sauce. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  3. 3. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Toast buns in batches until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
  4. 4. Layer some of the sauce, 1 tablespoon minced onion, 2 tablespoons lettuce, and pickles on 2 bottom buns. Layer some of the sauce and remaining 1 tablespoon minced onion, 2 tablespoons lettuce, and American cheese on the other bottom buns.
  5. 5. Season patties with salt and pepper. Cook in the hot skillet 2 at a time until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place 1 patty over each bottom bun; stack and cover with top buns.
