When it comes to my feelings about Big Mac sauce, "I'm lovin' it" doesn't even come close to covering it. It only requires 8 ingredients (plus salt and pepper) to make it, and some of those ingredients just may surprise you! While this copycat sauce obviously completes the classic Big Mac, its uses go way beyond it. This special sauce goes on just about everything (yes, even Big Mac hot dogs). Make it once, and you may have trouble enjoying any burger without it. Keep reading on for everything you need to know to to make this sauce your way (😉):
