How to Make Smash Burger Sauce

Expert Tips
- Increase Tang Flavor – For a tangier sauce, add more mustard or pickle relish; for a sweeter sauce, increase the amount of ketchup.
- Mayo – I would recommend using full fat mayonnaise.
- Chill Sauce – For the best flavor, make sure to chill the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This really helps to marinate the ingredients together.
