Equipment

  • Large Skillet or Griddle Use non‑stick or cast‑iron. If unavailable, a flat-top grill alternative works well.
  • Mixing bowls One for the sauce, one for the beef. If you don’t have bowls, a clean plate works for mixing.
  • Spatula & spoon For flipping patties and spreading sauce. A butter knife can double as a spreader in a pinch.
  • Cheese grater (optional) For shredding cheese if using blocks; skip if using pre-sliced cheese.
  • Cutting board & chef’s knife For chopping pickles, onions, and lettuce. A mandoline or vegetable peeler can help shred lettuce too.

Ingredients
  

  • 1  lb 450 g ground beef (80/20 blend)—seasoned with salt & pepper
  • 4 large flour tortillas 10″ or 12″ – the foundation of the hamburger tortilla wrap
  • 8 slices American cheese
  • Extra pickles: about 12–16 thin dill pickle slices
  • 1  cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • ½  cup finely diced onions yellow or white
  • ½  cup finely diced tomato optional, for added freshness

For the DIY Big Mac Sauce

  • ½  cup mayonnaise
  • 2  Tbsp ketchup
  • 2  Tbsp finely diced dill pickles
  • 1  Tbsp white vinegar
  • 1  Tbsp finely diced onion
  • 1  tsp mustard
  • 1  tsp granulated sugar
  • ¼  tsp paprika

Instructions
 

Make the Big Mac sauce

  1. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, finely diced dill pickles, diced onion, white vinegar, mustard, sugar, and paprika. Mix until smooth.
  2. Taste and adjust tanginess or sweetness to preference. Set aside for flavors to meld.

Prepare the ground beef

  1. Divide the beef into eight 2‑oz balls. Flatten them into thin patties (about 4″ diameter).
  2. Lightly season with salt and pepper.

Cook the patties

  1. Preheat skillet over medium-high heat. Oil lightly if necessary.
  2. Cook patties 2–3 minutes per side, until browned and fully cooked. Immediately place a slice of cheese on each patty to melt.
  3. Transfer cooked patties to a plate. Keep skillet hot for toasting tortillas.

Toast the tortillas

  1. In the same skillet, warm each tortilla about 15–20 seconds per side. This prevents sogginess and adds pliability.

Assemble the wraps

  1. Lay one tortilla flat. Spread ~2 Tbsp of Big Mac sauce in the center.
  2. Add a handful of shredded lettuce and a sprinkle of diced onions.
  3. Place two cheese-topped patties on top.
  4. Add 3–4 extra pickle slices, then diced tomato if using.
  5. Drizzle another tablespoon of sauce.

Fold the wrap

  1. Fold in opposite sides, then roll from the bottom up, tucking in sides as you go. The heated tortilla and warm patties help seal it.

Finish & serve

  1. Optionally, grill the wrap in the skillet seam-side down for 30 seconds–1 minute to crisp the outside.
  2. Slice diagonally and serve hot, with extra Big Mac sauce for dipping.
