Why We Love this Burger Sauce

Anytime we make Air Fryer Hamburgers this burger sauce is just as important as the pickles and lettuce when serving. We keep it stocked in our fridge as my kids use it as a dipping sauce to many fried foods.

You can easily adjust the ingredients to make it with a hint of spice. I like to add in a teaspoon or two of hot sauce for extra flavor.

Recipe Tips

  • Tangy Sauce – For a tangier sauce, add more mustard or pickle relish; for a sweeter sauce, increase the amount of ketchup.
  • Type of Mayo – I would recommend using full fat mayonnaise.
  • Make Ahead – This sauce is perfect to make ahead of time because the sauce needs to chill so it allows the ingredients to marinate together.
