Ingredients needed to make McDonalds Big Mac:

• 8 thin hamburger patties, 1/10 lb each
• 8 hamburger buns with sesame seeds

For the sauce:

• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp mustard
• 2 tbsp catsup
• 1 tbsp sweet pickle relish

Cooking instructions for McDonalds Big Mac:

• To make the secret sauce, add the catsup, mustard as well as sweet pickle relish into the mayonnaise and whisk them all together until they blend to form a light orange-coloured sauce; you can add one or two spoonfuls of mayonnaise for a creamier and tastier sauce.
• Remove the top of each bun and set them aside.
• Toast the bottoms of the buns on a hot griddle until they are slightly browned.
• Grill the hamburger patties on foreman grill or outdoor BBQ until they are properly cooked.
• Place the toasted buns, side by side, on a baking sheet and spread the prepared sauce across the toasted side of the bun.
• Sprinkle the finely chopped onions over each of them, followed by generous amount of shredded lettuce.
•  Top 4 of the toasted bottoms of each bun with the sliced pickles and the rest of the buns with cheese slices.
• Top each of the bun with a grilled hamburger patty and place the pickled buns on top of those with cheese.
• Place one of the bun lid on top of the stacked up burger and serve.
• Tuck in and enjoy!
