Change up the Flavor
Burger sauce can be made just the way you like it! Here are some ideas to adjusting the flavors.
- Mayonnaise Substitution: It is best to enjoy the thick, rich texture of real mayonnaise but substitute it for Miracle Whip or a veganaise mayo for a preferred taste.
- Adjust the Sweetness: If you like your burger sauce a little sweeter, add a pinch of granulated sugar. It will help balance out the salty, tangy flavor.
- Heat: Make this burger sauce spicy if you want! Try adding a dash or two of hot sauce like Tabasco sauce. You can also sprinkle in some cayenne pepper to bring on some extra heat.
Storing Leftovers
Be sure to save any leftover sauce! This burger sauce is so versatile and can be used for more than just burgers. My kids love this sauce with a quick and easy batch of air fryer French fries!
- In the Refrigerator: Store burger sauce in an airtight jar or container for 4-5 days. Give it a quick stir before using it!

Marinating my chicken thighs in your delicious Yakitori Sauce. Will bake the thighs vertically on a spit, additionally marinated with a honey/soy sauce.
Thanks for all your sauce recipes.
I make a similar sauce but with dill pickle relish instead of sweet relish. Not a fan of sweet pickles
