Want to make the perfect Big Mac Sauce to top your burgers with? Look no further! I can show you how to make the perfect copycat McDonald’s Special Sauce at home.
Big Mac Sauce : McDonald’s Big Mac Sauce is creamy, full of flavor, a little tangy, and lightly sweet (not to mention downright delicious).
Even better, it’s so easy to make with standard pantry ingredients.
This DIY McDonald’s Special Sauce comes together in just a few minutes, so it’s easy to fit in while you’re grilling to make the perfect burgers at home.
This homemade sauce is the closest thing you’ll taste to a substitute for McDonald’s signature sauce (and honestly, I actually like the homemade version better!).
Some people think that Coles Special Burger Sauce tastes a lot like Big Mac Sauce. I prefer the McDonald’s version, so that’s what this recipe is based off of.
What Is Big Mac Sauce Made Of?
Mayonnaise: The base of this sauce is mayonnaise. It’s the perfect creamy base, but I recommend using a good quality one. The quality of the mayonnaise will definitely affect the overall flavor of the sauce. I use the Kirkland brand from Costco. I wouldn’t recommend using Miracle Whip (unless you prefer a sweeter flavor profile).
This is such a simple recipe to throw together in a hurry. Just measure out the different ingredients into a bowl, and stir to combine. You can eat it right away, but I think the sauce tastes better after it’s had some time to let the flavors mingle in the fridge.

The classic way to use this sauce is on a burger to make your own Big Mac. Just smear it across the bottom bun before you add the burger patty and the rest of your toppings.
Even though I normally use it for burgers, it really tastes great on pretty much any sandwich. I love adding it to fried chicken sandwiches. It’s not quite the same as a McChicken, but it’s still delicious!
You could also use it as a dipping sauce for dipping fries, chicken nuggets, or onion rings.
It even makes a delicious salad dressing. This is especially true if you’re making a Big Mac salad. Just use it the way you would use Thousand Island Dressing.
