Top your juicy hamburgers with homemade burger sauce! Just like the famous In-n-Out sauce, this simple sauce is perfect for cheeseburgers or for dipping fries, onion rings, chicken nuggets, and more.

Why You’ll Love It

• Adds classic take-out flavor. Burgers from In-n-Out have a certain flavor that’s hard to replicate at home – until you have this sauce. Once you drizzle this onto your burgers it’ll transform your food into better-than-take-out perfection.
• Easy to make. Just mix everything together and chill for an hour. That’s it!
• Delicious. Creamy, sweet, and tangy, this burger sauce is so good I use it on many different kinds of food. In addition to burgers, my family loves it with fries, onion rings and more. I’ve shared a list of our favorite pairings below.

Ingredient Notes

Here’s what you’ll need to make Burger Sauce Recipe (the exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the easy to print recipe card):

• Mayonnaise – Use your favorite real mayonnaise.
• Ketchup – Ketchup adds great flavor and color to the sauce.
• Sweet pickle relish – You can use dill pickle relish if you prefer.
• Granulated sugar – The sugar is optional, but it does add a nice light sweetness.
• White vinegar – Vinegar gives the sauce a mild tang. I like white vinegar the best, but apple cider vinegar is a good alternative.

How to Make Burger Sauce Recipe

There are only two steps required to make burger sauce at home:

• Mix. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all ingredients. It should be well combined, but will be a bit chunky from the relish.
• Chill. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.

In addition to using this sauce on your hamburgers, it also goes well with:

• Salmon burgers
• Chicken sandwiches
