Ingredients You’ll Need for Big Mac Wraps
To recreate this mouthwatering Big Mac-inspired wrap, here’s everything you’ll need to get started:
For the Wraps:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend works best) – This ratio gives the beef the perfect balance of juiciness and flavor.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder – Adds depth to the savory beef mixture.
- 1 teaspoon onion powder – A classic seasoning that complements the garlic and beef perfectly.
- 1/2 teaspoon salt – Just the right amount to enhance the beef and other ingredients.
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper – For a touch of heat and sharpness.
- 4 large flour tortillas (burrito-sized) – These will hold all the goodness inside and make the wrap filling easy to eat.
- 1 cup shredded lettuce – Fresh, crisp, and the perfect balance to the rich beef and sauce.
- 1/2 cup diced white onion – Adds a slight crunch and tangy flavor.
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese – For a creamy, melty element.
- 1/2 cup dill pickle slices – A must for that classic Big Mac taste.
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds (optional, for garnish) – If you want to add that authentic touch, sesame seeds on the outside of the wrap bring a little extra flavor and crunch.
For the Special Sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise – The base for that creamy, tangy sauce that’s a Big Mac staple.
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish – Adds a sweet contrast to the savory flavors.
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard – For that slight tang and depth.
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar – A bit of acidity to balance the richness of the mayo.
- 1 teaspoon paprika – For a hint of smokiness and a subtle kick.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder – Enhances the flavor profile of the sauce.
- 1 teaspoon onion powder – Complements the garlic for a smooth, savory finish.
How to Make Big Mac Wraps in 5 Easy Steps
Now that you have all the ingredients, let’s walk through the simple steps to bring your Big Mac Wraps to life. Whether you’re cooking for one or feeding a crowd, this recipe is quick, fun, and full of flavor.
Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef
Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until it’s browned and fully cooked through. As it cooks, break the meat into small crumbles to ensure even cooking. Once browned, drain any excess fat from the skillet, then season the beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together and let the beef rest while you prepare the special sauce.
Step 2: Prepare the Special Sauce
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until the sauce is smooth and creamy. This tangy, slightly sweet sauce is what really ties the whole wrap together and brings out those classic Big Mac flavors. Once it’s ready, set it aside.
