Step-by-Step Instructions

Make the Big Mac Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayo, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and optional white pepper. Mix until well combined and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Tortillas: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook each tortilla for 1-2 minutes per side until lightly charred.
Cook the Smash Burgers: Divide the ground beef into four equal balls, smash each down to 1/4 inch thick, season with salt and pepper, cook for 2-3 minutes until crispy, flip, top with American cheese and cook 1-2 more minutes until melted.
Assemble the Tacos: Spread Big Mac sauce over each tortilla, layer with lettuce, onion, dill pickle slices, and a cheesy smash burger patty. Fold each tortilla to secure ingredients.
Serve: Enjoy your Big Mac Style Smash Burger Tacos warm, with extra sauce on the side.
