This is it, the killer burger sauce recipe. If you don’t want dry, flavorless burgers, look no further for the best classic hamburger sauce.

I’ll make this short and sweet since we’ve already talked about our two secrets for the perfect burger. We live by those secrets and sure enough our burger turns out every time. Dust off the grill and let’s make perfect burgers and then top with the best burger sauce you’ve ever had!

Burger Sauce Ingredients

So you’re probably wondering what goes into the best burger sauce. Well, let me tell you! Think Big Mac Sauce, In-N-Out’s special sauce or thousand island dressing, but made in the comfort of your own home. It’s easy and comes together in no time!

Mayonnaise
BBQ Sauce
Ketchup
Mustard or Dijon Mustard
Sweet Pickle Relish
Worcestershire Sauce
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper

To make the sauce, whisk all the ingredients together and set aside until the hamburgers are ready to assemble. The measurements of each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.

How to Assemble the Perfect Burger

Forget the ketchup and mayo and go for a really good burger sauce. I am a huge fan of sauces and condiments but in the case of the burger, keep it simple, burger, sauce, cheese, lettuce and tomato. Besides the burger sauce, these are the other items you will want to make a drool-worthy burger…

Brioche Buns: Always toast your buns. Always. Whether or not you use butter brushed on the inside and outside is up to you, but always toast those babies.
Special Meat Blend: Burgers don’t want to be slow cooked so crank up the heat and quickly cook on each side. We do medium high heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
Lettuce: We prefer butter or green leaf lettuce for the best texture, color and flavor.
Vine Ripe Tomato: We slice the tomatoes thin using our favorite tomato knife.
American Cheese: A processed cheese made from cheddar, Colby, or similar cheeses and gets extra melty and delicious.
Butter: A little butter on the burger is always a good thing. Culvers butter burger converted us and we hardly ever make it without butter.
Salt and Pepper: I cringe a little every time I see a burger get plopped on a grill without seasoning. Do you like your French fries without salt? Well meat needs seasoning as well.

Why Do Hamburger Patties Fall Apart?

It’s not about the fat content, honestly.

Just make sure you don’t have too many liquid-y things in there, like too much Worcestershire sauce or onions, but what’s also important is to make sure they are cold when you put them on the grill, AND do not keep flipping them. Hamburgers should only need to be flipped once.

That will make the burger fall apart for sure.

Can Hamburgers Be Pink in the Middle?

Yes, a hamburger that is pink in the middle can be safe to eat if it has reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. If my friend is doing it and I don’t know where the meat is from or it’s a basic store-bought prepared burger someone is cooking always go with well-done. Again, reading our post about the best burger is helpful.

I know we’ve all been taught to send back a pink burger but at a good restaurant or at home you actually should have a slightly pink center. Why? Well eating out you can’t control that’s it’s fresh, good meat being ground and that it’s been carefully prepared and cooked so it’s too risky. But when you use our special meat blend from our 2 secrets post you’ll have a perfect burger if you don’t cook it to well done. I know, it’s a little scary the first time but trust us. An over cooked burger is the same as an overcooked steak.

What is the Difference Between Yellow Mustard and Dijon?

Dijon mustard has a sharper, tangier flavor than yellow mustard.

What if I Don’t Like Pickles?

If you don’t like the flavor of pickles, then you can replace the pickle relish with a tablespoon of white vinegar. If it’s the texture of pickles that you aren’t a fan of, I would use the pickle juice just to get that pickle flavor in there, but like I mentioned above, I’m actually not a pickle fan, but I don’t even notice them in this sauce.

The Perfect Sides for the Killer Burger

I know you want the burger to be the star of the show, but a good side or two is always a good thing! Try our grilled corn or baked beans! If you want some extra flavor, go for our Elote grilled street corn or Elote corn salad!

And you can’t ever forget fries when you have a burger! Go for our perfect French fries with special sauce! And let me just add here that this classic burger sauce recipe is a great dipping sauce for french fries too!

Storage Tips

Extra burger sauce should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep for up to a week.
