Big Mac Sauce Gluten Free

The sauce that really makes this whole big mac salad come together is the Thousand Island. This is a new sugar-free addition to Primal Kitchen’s long line of Whole30 Approved, Paleo and Keto sauces, condiments and dressings. I’ve been a huge fan of PK since they released their first product- their mayo (also Whole30 Approved and keto!).

Big Mac Sauce is purely irresistible. It is so creamy and tangy, I had to have it at home! Whip up a batch today using simple ingredients and spices.
  1. A McDonald’s hamburger, cheeseburger, Quarter Pounder ®, and Big Mac ® are all gluten free IF eaten without the bun. All McDonald’s burgers are made with 100% beef; so they’re not ‘beefed up’ with any cereal, rusk or flour. And according to McDonald’s they’re happy to serve you just the burger minus the bun if you ask your.

This Big Mac sauce recipe has just the right amount of tang and zip to dress up grilled burgers and a variety of vegetables. You can even use it as a dip for your fries.

In fact, we couldn’t even taste the difference when doing a side-by-side comparison of ours and the real thing.

And unlike the fast food version, it’s completely gluten-free! Making it yourself gives you control over the ingredients, so a few substitutions will let you create an egg-free or dairy-free version as well.

How To Make Big Mac Sauce From Scratch

Just mix everything together and you’re done - it’s that simple!

I do recommend letting it sit covered in the refrigerator for a few hours before using it. This gives all of the ingredients time to meld together, resulting in a bolder overall flavor.

This homemade version is so much healthier than the original recipe which contains a variety of additives and preservatives. You can find a complete list of ingredients for the McDonald’s recipe here if you would like to compare.

Want a different consistency?
Make a few simple adjustments depending on how you like it or if you want to use this as a dip or salad dressing instead.

  • Thicker: Decrease the mayo and add some additional sour cream.
  • Thinner: Leave out the sour cream entirely.

  • Mixing Bowl - I like to have a variety of sizes on hand, and this set has them all.
  • Whisk - These have held up for over 10 years and are still as good as the day I bought them.
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons - Seasoned cooks may try to eyeball the amounts, but I recommend using the proper tools or it won’t taste quite right.

FAQ - Common Recipe Questions

Is Big Mac sauce the same as Thousand Island dressing?

Mcdonald
Although it is similar, it is not the same. I find that this has a tangier flavor than Thousand Island dressing does.

How long does homemade Big Mac sauce last in the refrigerator?

When kept in a sealed jar or container, it should be good for up to 1 week. Be sure to give it a good stir before each use.

Yes! The longer it sits, the darker the color will become because it contains turmeric. It’s still safe to eat and the difference in color won’t affect the overall flavor.

Does Big Mac Sauce Contain Gluten

Prepare your buns for toasting. Separate the buns. You should have one bun for each sandwich, with two buns ‘extra’ – slice the rounded top off the top portion of the two extra buns, which will allow you to use two buns to make four “middle buns” for the sandwich.

Heat a very heavy cast iron or other pan over medium high heat. Toast the buns on the cut side only until the edges are beginning to brown. Toast the four ‘center’ buns on both sides in the same way. Set aside.

Divide your hamburger into eight 1/8 pound (2 ounce) portions. Shape into patties about 4 inches by 1/8 inch. for a really uniform look you may use a biscuit cutter as a mold.

Place in the same heated pan you used to toast the buns and salt and pepper liberally. Allow to cook, without touching for about a minute, then flip to the other side. Salt and pepper again and allow to cook for another minute or until brown.

Assemble your sandwiches. Place four bottom buns on four plates. top with about 2 tsp of Special Sauce Clone, then place about 1/2 teaspoon of onion on the sauce. Place 1/4 c of chopped lettuce on this mixture, then top with a slice of cheese or daiya. Place one hot patty on the cheese, then place the middle bun on this. Repeat the order: sauce, onion, lettuce, but instead of cheese on the top layer, place two dill pickle slices, then the second hot patty. Top with the top bun and serve.

You may allow the sandwiches to sit for at least 10 minutes and then microwave for 10-15 seconds for even more replicated taste and texture if you wish.
