Although this recipe currently lives on my Juicy Grilled Chicken Burger recipe post, I decided to give this Ultimate Homemade Burger Sauce recipe its own post. Not only because it’s delicious and deserves some real estate on my blog, but I’m also working on a big sauce roundup to share with y’all soon!

I know everyone has their favorite burger toppings, but this is one that will really have you saying “omg YUM!” It’s a pretty simple recipe, but well worth having a mason jar of it on standby in your fridge throughout the summer for those perfect grilling days and backyard gatherings.

This ultimate Juicy Grilled Chicken Burger recipe will make you forget any pre-conceived notions you might have about chicken burgers being dry and boring!

Ingredients and Substitutions

Here’s what you’ll need to recreate this Ultimate Homemade Burger Sauce at home:

  • Light mayonnaise – I used Duke’s Light Mayonnaise because I like the flavor, but you can go with an even lower fat option like Miracle Whip to cut down on calories and add more “zing”!
  • Ketchup – Use whatever brand is your favorite!
  • Sweet relish – I guess it doesn’t really matter if you use sweet relish or dill relish, but I prefer something closer to my favorite bread and butter pickle flavor. If you don’t have relish on hand, just use pickles instead! Toss them in a food processor along with all the other ingredients and buzz it up until the pickles are chopped up finely.
  • Lemon juice – The acidity in the lemon juice helps brighten things up and balances the flavors nicely.
  • Worcestershire sauce – I love the smokey flavor that Worcestershire sauce brings to the party – it complements the smoked paprika in both the burger and the sauce too! If you don’t have any on hand, you might want to use some of your favorite hot sauce (like Frank’s Red Hot) instead.
  • Smoked paprika – I’m a huge fan of smoked paprika, especially in this burger and sauce!
  • Salt and pepper – A little extra seasoning to round out the flavors.
