Steps:
- In a bowl combine ground chuck and salt and pepper. Shape meat into 10 meat patties. Shape patties somewhat thin. Set a griddle to 350 degrees. Place meat on the griddle and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Flip burgers and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until juices from the meat run clear.
- Spread softened butter on cut sides of bun and place on griddle until the bread begins to brown. Flip the middle bun and allow to toast on both sides.
- Build the burger by starting at the bottom. The bottom bun, Big Mac sauce, onions, lettuce, cheese, hamburger patty, and the middle bun. Spread the Big Mac sauce, onion, lettuce, hamburger patty, two or three pickle slices, and finally the top bun.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: Mix the sauce ingredients together until you get kind of a light orange colored sauce.
- Add more or less mayo according to taste.
- Adjust the recipe for more sauce if desired.
- Take four of the buns and remove the tops.
- Save the tops for another recipe.
- Toast the buns and start to cook the meat.
- A FOREMAN GRILL is most like the grill used at McDonald's, but you can do it any other way you want.
- (You can cook the meat and put aside until your buns are ready, or work quickly and finish simultaneously) Spread out the bun bottoms (you will have 8) on a baking sheet.
- Put sauce on all of these (the closer 4 will be the middle layer).
- Sprinkle buns with minced onions (we used a good pinch).
- Follow the onions with the shredded lettuce.
- For the four closest buns, top each with 2 pickles and for the four farthest top each with a slice of cheese.
- IF you are a TRULY skilled Big Mac Maker your buns will be ready as soon as your meat is ready, but it takes practice.
- Put the 8 pieces of meat onto all of the 8 buns.
- Take the four pickle side buns and move on top of the cheese side buns.
- Top with the bun"lids" and enjoy your Big Mac's!

Steps:
- With a serrated knife, cut the top off the extra bun half, leaving about a 3/4-inch-thick slice.
- That will be the middle bun of your sandwich.
- Place the three bun halves on a hot pan or griddle, face down, and toast them to a light brown.
- Set aside, but keep the pan hot.
- Divide the ground beef in half and press into two thin patties slightly larger than the bun.
- Cook the patties in the hot pan over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
- Salt lightly.
- build the burger in the following stacking order from the bottom up: bottom bun, half of dressing, half of onion, half of lettuce, American cheese, beef patty, middle bun, remainder of dressing, remainder of onion, remainder of lettuce, pickle slices, beef patty, top bun.
Tips:
- Select high-quality ground beef with at least 80% lean meat content.
- Use fresh, never frozen, beef patties for the best flavor and texture.
- Season the beef patties generously with salt and pepper before cooking.
- Cook the beef patties over medium-high heat to achieve a nice sear and prevent them from drying out.
- Flip the beef patties only once during cooking to ensure even cooking.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the beef patties reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for medium-rare, 165°F (74°C) for medium, or 170°F (77°C) for well-done.
- Toast the buns lightly to add a touch of crispness.
- Spread a thin layer of your favorite sauce on the buns before assembling the burgers.
- Top the beef patties with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
