Mc Donald's Big Mac.....almost!!!!! image

Once upon a time I worked at McDonald's, and I used to make a TON of these things...this is how it works...we used reconstituted onions (ewww!) and canned sauce, but this is pretty darn close....

Time 20m

Yield 4 Burgers

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 hamburger buns with sesame seeds
1 lb hamburger, in 8 thin patties, 1/10 lb each (approximately)
8 slices pickles
finely chopped onion (at McD's these are reconstituted)
shredded iceberg lettuce
salt and pepper
4 slices yellow American cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons catsup
1 tablespoon mustard
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Mix the sauce ingredients together until you get kind of a light orange colored sauce.
  • Add more or less mayo according to taste.
  • Adjust the recipe for more sauce if desired.
  • Take four of the buns and remove the tops.
  • Save the tops for another recipe.
  • Toast the buns and start to cook the meat.
  • A FOREMAN GRILL is most like the grill used at McDonald's, but you can do it any other way you want.
  • (You can cook the meat and put aside until your buns are ready, or work quickly and finish simultaneously) Spread out the bun bottoms (you will have 8) on a baking sheet.
  • Put sauce on all of these (the closer 4 will be the middle layer).
  • Sprinkle buns with minced onions (we used a good pinch).
  • Follow the onions with the shredded lettuce.
  • For the four closest buns, top each with 2 pickles and for the four farthest top each with a slice of cheese.
  • IF you are a TRULY skilled Big Mac Maker your buns will be ready as soon as your meat is ready, but it takes practice.
  • Put the 8 pieces of meat onto all of the 8 buns.
  • Take the four pickle side buns and move on top of the cheese side buns.
  • Top with the bun"lids" and enjoy your Big Mac's!
