For the Wraps:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Special Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1 – Preparation

  1. Make the Special Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, pickle relish, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes for the flavors to blend.
  2. Chop the Veggies: Finely dice the onions, shred the lettuce, and slice the pickles.
  3. Prepare the Cheese: Grate fresh cheddar cheese for a richer, meltier texture.

Step 2 – Cooking Process

  1. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
  2. Warm the Tortillas: Heat each tortilla in a dry skillet or microwave for 15 seconds to make them pliable.
  3. Assemble the Wraps:
    • Spread a generous layer of the special sauce on each tortilla.
    • Add a layer of shredded lettuce and cheddar cheese.
    • Spoon cooked beef evenly onto each wrap.
    • Top with diced onions and sliced pickles.
  4. Wrap and Toast:
    • Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it tightly.
    • Toast the wrap in a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.

Step 3 – Final Touch & Serving

  1. Garnish with Sesame Seeds (optional) to mimic the classic Big Mac bun.
  2. Slice in Half for easy eating and a great presentation.
  3. Serve with Extra Special Sauce on the side for dipping.

Expert Tips for the Perfect Homemade Big Mac Wraps With Special Sauce

  • Use Lean Ground Beef: For a balanced texture without too much grease.
  • Let the Special Sauce Sit: The longer it rests, the better the flavors meld.
  • Don’t Overfill the Wraps: This prevents them from bursting open.
  • Toast the Wraps: This step adds a slight crunch and enhances flavor.

Recipe Variations & Substitutions

  • Low-Carb Version: Swap the tortilla for a large lettuce leaf for a keto-friendly option.
  • Turkey or Chicken Alternative: Use ground turkey or shredded chicken for a leaner wrap.
  • Cheese Swap: Try American cheese for a more traditional Big Mac taste.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free tortillas for a diet-friendly alternative.
