Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80% lean recommended for juiciness)
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size, flour tortillas crisp up best)
  • 4 slices American cheese (or cheddar if preferred)
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce (adds a fresh crunch)
  • 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped (sweet onion works great)
  • 8 dill pickle slices (classic Big Mac touch)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for frying tortillas crisp)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (recommend Hellmann’s for creamiest texture)
  • 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the Big Mac Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish, 1 tablespoon yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon white vinegar, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside in the fridge while you prepare the rest.
  2. Cook the Ground Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb ground beef, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring and breaking up the meat until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat using paper towels.
  3. Prepare the Tortillas: Wipe your skillet clean or use another pan. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium heat. Place a tortilla in the pan, cooking each side for about 1-2 minutes until golden and crispy but still pliable. Repeat for all tortillas.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a crispy tortilla flat. Spread 2 tablespoons of the Big Mac sauce evenly over the surface. Top with about 1/4 of the cooked beef, a slice of American cheese, shredded lettuce, chopped onion, and 2 pickle slices. Roll up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Repeat for all tortillas.
  5. Final Toast (Optional): For an extra crispy finish and melty cheese, place each wrap back into the skillet seam side down. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side over medium heat until golden and the cheese melts. Serve immediately.

Notes

Warm tortillas slightly before filling to prevent cracking. Drain excess fat from beef to avoid soggy wraps. For gluten-free option, use gluten-free wraps or large lettuce leaves. For dairy-free, use vegan cheese and mayo alternatives. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in a skillet to maintain crispiness. Avoid microwaving to keep crunch.
