Homemade Big Mac Sauce Recipe
Let me save you the drive-thru trip. If you want that iconic Big Mac flavor without leaving the house, this homemade sauce hits! I’ve been sharing tried-and-true recipes on my website for 10 years, and when I say this tastes just like the real deal, I mean it. I’ve tested and tweaked it to taste just like the original—but better, because you know exactly what’s going in it.

Ingredients
- 1 cup mayo See notes for substitutes.
- ¼ cup sweet pickle relish
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 ¼ teaspoons paprika I like smoked paprika, but regular works.
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅛ teaspoon white pepper
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients and stir well to combine.
- Serve immediately or store the sauce covered in the fridge for a couple of hours. This will allow the flavors to sit and meld together.Add a little water if your sauce is too thick. This is especially necessary if you swap out mayo for something else. The consistency will be a lot thicker, but water will do the trick for thinning it out and making the sauce creamy.
- Taste repeatedly and make adjustments to the sauce to suit your taste.
Notes
I often swap out most the mayo for plain Greek yogurt (sour cream works, too) with ¾ cup of plain yogurt and 2 tablespoons of mayo.
Stored in an airtight container, it’ll last about 1 week in the fridge.
