Big Macs tonight

Step 1: Make the Special Sauce

  1. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, French dressing, pickle relish, white vinegar, sugar, and onion powder.
  2. Season with a pinch of salt, and stir until well combined.
  3. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the rest of the burger.

Step 2: Prepare the Beef Patties

  1. Divide the ground beef into 8 small portions (about 2 ounces each) to create thin patties.
  2. Shape each portion into a ball, then press or smash them thin using a heavy-duty spatula or burger press.
  3. Season each patty with a little salt and pepper.

Step 3: Toast the Buns

  1. Cut each sesame seed bun into three layers (top bun, bottom bun, and a middle layer).
  2. Lightly toast each layer in a hot skillet until golden brown, then set aside.

Step 4: Cook the Patties

  1. Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
  2. Place a few patties on the hot skillet, cooking them for about 2 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and crispy around the edges.
  3. Place a slice of American cheese on half of the patties right after flipping, so it melts as they finish cooking.

Step 5: Assemble the Big Macs

  1. Start with the bottom bun layer. Spread a spoonful of special sauce, add shredded lettuce, a few finely chopped onions, and two pickles.
  2. Place a cheesy patty on top, then add the middle bun layer.
  3. Repeat with more sauce, lettuce, onions, pickles, and the second cheesy patty.
  4. Top with the final top bun layer.
