Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 2 Large Russet Potatoes

Beef Mixture

  • ½ lb Hamburger
  • 1 tablespoon Burger Seasoning

Toppings

  • 1 cup Shredded Lettuce
  • ½ cup Shredded Cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Minced Onions
  • 8 Pickle Slices
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds

Big Mac Sauce

  • 1 cup Mayo
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Ketchup
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Mustard
  • ¼ cup Sweet Pickle Relish
  • 1 teaspoon Vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • Salt to Taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Potatoes: Cook the russet potatoes using your preferred method—bake, microwave, or boil—until tender and fully cooked through.
  2. Make Big Mac Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, sweet pickle relish, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
  3. Cook Hamburger: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the hamburger and burger seasoning, cooking and breaking up the meat until browned throughout. Drain any excess grease from the pan.
  4. Assemble Potatoes: Slice the cooked potatoes down the center and gently open them. Layer the shredded lettuce first, followed by the cooked hamburger meat.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle shredded cheese, minced onions, pickle slices, and sesame seeds evenly over the meat and lettuce.
  6. Finish with Sauce: Drizzle the prepared Big Mac sauce generously over all the toppings.
  7. Serve: Serve the loaded baked potatoes warm and enjoy the Big Mac flavors in every bite.

Notes

  • Potatoes can be cooked in the oven at 400°F for about 45-60 minutes, microwave for 8-12 minutes, or boiled until tender.
  • For a crispier potato skin, bake potatoes directly on the oven rack without foil.
  • Adjust seasoning in the Big Mac sauce to taste, adding more or less vinegar or relish as preferred.
  • If desired, substitute ground turkey or plant-based meat for a different protein option.
  • To melt the cheese, you can briefly place assembled potatoes under a broiler for 1-2 minutes.
