Big Mac Wrap Ingredients

With just a handful of inexpensive ingredients, you can have all of the classic Big Mac flavors. Easy enough for any weeknight.

Homemade Big Mac Sauce Ingredients

A Big Mac is just a burger without the delicious Big Mac Sauce. So let's start there.

Big Mac Sauces is not Thousand Island Dressing. It has some similarities, but trust me. Make this sauce.

Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside and let them marry each other while you make the wrap portion.

• Mayonaise - The base of the sauce. Use a good quality one. I actually made mine homemade because I have a million eggs right now. NOT Miracle Whip this time.
• Sweet Pickle Relish - Brings sweetness and texture to the sauce.
• Yellow Onion, grated - This provides flavor to the sauce but lets the onion just melt in your mouth.
• Mustard - Brings some needed acidity to the sauce.
• Spices - Contributes to the flavors of the sauce.
• Ketchup - It's the secret ingredient to bring it all together. Sweetness, color, richness.

I'm not usually a big sauce person, but let me tell you... I put on extra Big Mac Sauce. It's so good.

Big Mac Wrap

• Ground Beef - 80/20 lean ground beef is a nice blend of fat to beef for a fried burger.
• Flour Soft Tortillas - I used the Fajita size for a snack wrap size. Soft taco sized would work nicely.
• Salt and Pepper - To season the beef.
• American Cheese Slices - Melts well and it's what the original has.
• Minced Onion - Brings home the flavor. You could use dried minced onions if you prefer.
• Dill Pickles, slices - Just like the original.
• Shredded Lettuce - McD uses iceberg, but I broke from tradition here and used romaine.

How to Make Big Mac Wraps

There is a little technique to getting the burger thin so it cooks through. Follow along.

1. Mix together the secret sauce ingredients and set aside.
2. Preheat the electric griddle or Blackstone to 375 degrees F. If using a medium skillet, preheat over medium-high heat.
3. Divide the pound of ground beef into 6 equal amounts for beef patties.
4. Using your hand, smash 1 ball of ground beef directly onto one side of a flour tortilla. Make sure the beef goes to the edge and has no thick spots—season liberally with salt and pepper. Garlic powder, if you wish.
5. Place the Big Mac Wrap on the hot electric griddle beef side down. Allow the beef to brown fully and get slightly crisp before flipping.
6. Flip the burger to brown and crisp the tortilla.
7. Top with cheese and allow to melt while cooking the second side. The burger should be cooked through and the cheese melt.
8. Spread a layer of Big Mac Sauce, and top with onions, dill pickle slices, and lettuce. Fold in half and serve while hot.

Top Tips for the Best Big Mac Wraps

• Pack the ground beef enough to keep it together in a patty, but avoid overhandling or handling it roughly. Burgers that are handled too much get tough because all the little fat pockets get destroyed.
• Make sure you get the grill very hot before adding your burgers. If your heat isn't high enough, the fat just leaks out, leaving a dry burger.
• Don't mess with the burger once it's on the hot griddle. Leave it alone until it's browned up. That's where the crust forms and makes the best burgers.
