Deerburger Sliders (with Big Mac Special Sauce)


So a little bit ago, I made some Big Deerburgers with my test of a Burger King Whopper Sauce Clone.
It tasted Great, but was a little on the Mild (Weak) side.

Shortly after that I went searching for the Special Sauce that McDonalds uses on their “Big Macs”.
I found one & it shows up in a number of places on the Internet, so I mixed it up.

McDonald’s Big Mac Special Sauce:
Mayo———1/2 Cup. (I used Miracle Whip)
French Dressing———2 TBS
Sweet Pickle Relish———4 tsp
Minced Onion———1 TBS (I skipped this)
White Vinegar———1 tsp
Sugar———1tsp
Salt———1/8 tsp
Stir or Whisk, and Refrigerate overnight.
That’s it—Slap it on your Burger Roll.

I’m calling these “Sliders” because we got 8 Patties out of one of our many Frozen packs of Deerburger Mix, instead of our usual 5 or 6 Patties.

So the first pair I added this sauce to, I found the sauce to be a bit Mild, much like the Whopper Sauce clone I made.
So I put a lot more sauce on the next two, but it was still a little Mild, but closer than the Whopper Sauce Clone was.
I guess I’ll stick with this one, while I proceed to try to figure out what it’s missing, unless it’s that my Taste Buds still aren’t back 100% since my Open Heart Fiasco killed them on Nov 8, 2012.
If any of you guys tries this recipe for the “Big Mac Special Sauce”, please let me know what you think, so I’ll get a better idea if it’s Me or The Sauce.

Check out the Pics below, and the Info on the Captions!

Thanks Guys!

First ones were too mild, so as you can see, I doubled up on the Sauce:

Melted Cheese & Lots of Big Mac Special Sauce:

Big slice of Mater on each:

One more, but without any Mater Slices. Still needs something. (IMO)

Those deerburgers look great bear. As for the sauce it's close, but still no cigar. From what I've gathered trying to replicate the sauce over the years - Micks doesn't contain any tomato products(french dressing). I've been playing with different types of mustard to replace the dressing. I'm getting close, but still not there.

Point for sure

looks great bear, all this testing must be tough on you, keep trying though and you'll perfect it. I am going to try the one you posted here though,

Thank You Chris!!
Actually I think the flavor is right on, but just not strong enough.
However I don't know what to add to make it stronger.
Unless like I said, it could be my ruined taste buds!
And Thanks for the Like.
