It looks really good. One thing about the Big Ma sauce, a guy who use to be a corporate chef for McDonald's showed how to make Big Mac sauce and said that the sauce doesn't have any ketchup. He said that the color comes from paprika.
I love that you rehydrated dehydrated onions, since that was absolutely what Mickey D’s did waaaay back in the day. They may still, now that I think about it.

There are two types of french dressing. One is darker red in color and sweeter (also known as "Catalina French". The other is orange, and has less sugar.

So, if you are adding sugar, then probably use the regular french dressing, not Catalina.

Totally agree with you Emmy, the onion flavour is key with McD's flavours! My lazy Big Mac sauce dupe is some onion powder rehydrated with a bit of white vinegar (for speed), then mixed with mostly mayo, some mustard, relish, and a bit of ketchup (all to taste). And, another recipe I tried for their sweet and sour sauce was mostly apricot jam with onion powder.

It’s basically just 1,000 island dressing. I find it nasty though 😂
If you're in Australia, Coles "Special Burger Sauce" is very, very, very close to the Big Mac sauce. They also have "Special Burger Pickles" which are the same. ❤

Thank you Emmy! Looks great. The redder French dressing that you're thinking of might be the Catalina dressing, but I rarely see it.
Hi Emmy. I love this idea of smashing but I am going to share my Big Mac dressing recipe with you. Yours is probably good but to get the actual signature taste of a big mac is the smoked paprika in the dressing. Try it and see if you like it as well or better. Big Mac Dressing Ingredients: 2 Tlbs. of the diced dill pickle 1/2 cup of mayonnaise 2 tsp of mustard 1 tsp white vinegar 1/2 tsp smoked paprika Sweetener of choice to equal 1 1/2 tbls of sugar or just use sugar Add all dressing ingredients into a bowl and whisk till fully blended. Set dressing in fridge until needed.

how long does it keep
My cousin said she was making these with her kids, when we bumped into them in the supermarket 😂 i had never heard of them, but they sound & look good!
French Dressing also comes in a much redder version(you were correct) some areas also have a Russian dressing is the redder one. If you mix your McDressing the night before you can put your dehydrated onions into the mixture and they will soak up the moisture from there which also allows your onion flavor to thoroughly mix into the dressing. Half my family is allergic to raw onions, so we either have to cook til translucent or use dehydrated
One thing in particular about French dressing that is technically French is that to make it, one always starts out with one generous dollop of Dijon mustard. Just something random I read someplace about it.
I don't care about duplicating the Big Mac taste, but I love smash burgers. This just looks like fun and an easy, neat way to make and eat them!
Catalina dressing is usually very red orange..french is more orange red typically
Just a couple of nights ago my daughter made these for supper, using flour tor tortillas. They were so good! The burger is crispy, and with the other ingredients added in, is was perfect. I love love a Big Mac, but I always end up with a hot mess. We don’t have any fast food restaurants where I live, the middle of nowhere, but these smash burgers are delicious.
I've only recently (like in the past year) tried the Big Mac and I am obsessed!! I get it every time now!!
More MRE taste tests? Love your videos!
Made these and my husband and I enjoyed them!
Emmy, i just made these 3 nights ago for supper. My husband is diabetic so we used the low carb tortillas. Whole family loved it.
I love love LOVE these videos. They are so much fun to watch.
We had them for dinner tonight! Love these!
My kiddos bday is tomorrow. These sound great.
I agree, big macs are delicious, I use thousand island dressing though. Wow, I am gonna try this for my fam. Thanks Emmy!
Thank you for the link to the McMenu pdf! I've already written down the "Special Sauce" recipe and shared it. 😊
I love the sweet flavor of their bread. When I was a kid I used to take the caramel from my apples. And rip the top of my cheeseburger bun, and then dip the bread in the caramel 😂 my mom thought it was so weird but it was great

Ahhhhh Que lindo! Those are the best tortillas. Even better than the little corn ones. Anyway their cute and delicious. Their like the jumbo flour ones piped out a baby

I just thought of doing this the other day! I had the burger cooked and looking for Buns when I thought about cutting the patty in half and using a Tortilla shell. It fits perfectly!!
I was thinking as to why you didn't cook the meat first and heat the tortillas but I see this is a unique incarnation of a Bic Mac but in taco form .. gotta try this!💗
Your whale shirt has always been my favorite 🖤 I love your videos, can't believe it's been over 10 years since I started watching you for your candy kits!
These quickly became a staple in my meal planning! 😋
Often when it comes down to how something tastes it's the sauce or gravy, it makes all the difference, bet if you made a batch of the sauce and kept it in a bottle in the fridge your kids would love it. Love your vlogs especially the MRE ones, take care T.T.F.N. xx
Catalina dressing is more red. It is similar to French, just a bit tangier/ more acidic. 😊
Happy Summer Emmy Your Beautiful as Always ❤💕
Emmy you’re the greatest!!!! Xoxo
made these twice. absolutely fire and super easy.
That's the right color for creamy French dressing. Regular French dressing is a touch redder but the red ones are Russian or Catalina dressing.
Yes, it’s all about those rehydrated dried minced onions. (Well, and the the pickles.)
I've always subbed Thousand Island dressing for Big Mac Sauce, but that homemade sauce looks interesting, so I will have to try it next time.
No matter how hard my "foodie" friends rail against it, I sincerely love an occasional Big Mac just for the big bang of flavor (if I want a serious *burger* burger, I'll go to Red Robin). The "taco" version looks so good, and so easy! It'll cost a lot less too. I'm definitely trying it soon :D
Big Mac sauce is more Thousand Island-ish dressing related than French’s.

I believe you are right, I remember that being closer to the secret sauce taste since even the leaked recipe wasn’t true.
I totally agree with the rehydrated minced onions!
I miss the Mac wraps
The red French dressing is Catalina French
I have been making Big Mac, Whopper and Rodeo Burger grilled wraps for years. I have also done a tribute to my hometown of Rochester, NY and made a Garbage Wrap which consists of a Cheeseburger, home fries, Mac salad, onions, hot sauce (meat sauce), mustard and ketchup.
YUMMMMM, LOOKS SOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOO DELICIOUS EMMY. 😊😊😊😊😊
I don't know how much these tacos taste like Big Mac, but this idea of cooking the ground beef in the tortilla sounds really practical!
The dressing you are thinking of, that’s more red, is Catalina!
In Northern California and Nevada we have a fast food place called Jimboys. The serve a Taco Burger that is very like this but includes Queso Fresco.
The McDonald's Big Mac snack wrap (RIP) got a glow up!
No headboard FTW! 😆✨✨✨
A Big Maco? Sounds amazing
I've seen Sweet Hawaiian street taco flour tortillas, maybe that would add a bread-like sweetness?
Love the video. I've made other trendy Big Macs..pizza , dip and soup. Over the hype.
Looks like a great idea. If you're doing low carb, there are low carb tortillas available which makes this a great variation of using lettuce wrapped burgers. Growing up, I loved French dressing. I always had to make it from scratch and it was usually a red-ish color from the ketchup. making the dressing from scratch also makes it so you can control the carb content.
French dressing is a bright red orange you got creamy french which is not but imo creamy french is better lol
I can't wait to try this idea
I love that you love Big Macs
Big mac sauce is mayo 1 cup, mustard 1tsp, vinegar 1/2 tsp, sweet pickle relish 1tsp, onion powder 1/2 tsp, garlic powder 1/2 tsp, and paprika 1/2 tsp.
The reddish French dressing usually has the word Catalina in the title (Catalina French Dressing). It's sweeter & a maybe a bit more vinegary.
Never heard of them. Let's listen to see if I want one. Why do i trust Emmy so much? ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Gonna have to try this!
Yum what a great idea thankyou❤😂
Anything with the words “Big Mac”, I’m DOWNNNNNN!!!!! 😋
I have used tortillas instead of loaf bread for years and now they can replace buns! Great idea, Emmy!
This looks delicious. I can't wait to try this at home. Love the video, except for the 2 minute ad at the beginning.
You may be thinking of Catalina dressing which is bright red.
I haven't seen orangy French dressing in years. It sux because I use it in a specific recipe and the creamy isn't the same
Emmy, you are my favorite content content creator!
I think you might be thinking of Russian dressing. It is a dark red with black pepper flecks and is sweet and vinegary as well. I have seen it labeled as French at salad bars, tho. I think the taco version was also missing rehydrated onions, Emmy.
4:41 min.: ...........TURN TURN ! FLIP! FLIP AND TURN!!!
Isn’t this the Big Mac Snack Wrap that was discontinued? So to speak? Love you Emmy!!!!
This looks so delicious 😋
"Hmm...vinegary, sweet, is there anything French about it??"😂😂😂😂😂😂
Big mac sauce is just thousand island dressing just so you know. Definitely gonna try and make it the way you did though.
Thank you for the mac sauce recipe
My only issue is when you introduce raw meat to the tortilla you’ve already possibly contaminated the tortillas because even if the meat gets cooked, the bacteria soaked into the tortilla doesn’t. Cook the meat smash style then add it to the tortilla, if you then wish to cook onions , cheese etc then add it and put it under the broiler for several minutes or so.
I would make this more of a taco with big mac vibes. Taco seasoning in the burger, make a pickle de gallo, add a lil chipotle pepper into the mac sauce. Best of both worlds!
Oh I’m going to try this. 😋
Thank you for the pdf Emmy! You are great
This is a super cool idea! I'm adding it to my "to-do" list for sure 👀
Yummm! I will make these! But I think I will add a sprinkling of sesame seeds.
Awesome idea

As soon as you said MSG, i got an ad (wasn't looking) and it started with children cheering. I thought you had added a sound affect LOL
I made these last week and it was amazing!!❤
I don't usually do salt and MSG together; in fact, I'm more apt to use MSG alone, because it's less likely to raise my husband's blood pressure, but I also think it makes food taste savory enough without needing salt as well. However, for this I might use furikake instead, to get the saltiness but also a little added sweetness and some sesame to compensate for the missing bun.
Hey Emmy! Did you know that the commercial for you videos is Stearns & Foster! Lol
I wish Mc Donald's would bring back the Big Mac snack wrap.
Need to try that. I love big Macs. Looks yummy.
Wish-Bone French dressing is reddish. I do remember French dressings as being reddish, but it wasn't til you mentioned it that I realized French dressings no longer seem to be reddish anymore. More orange-yellow. Hmm. 😏
