After I made our Homemade Copycat Big Macs, I thought I would try to make a fun Big Mac sliders version of one of our favorite burgers.
My kids loved that they were eating “mini burgers” for dinner. We served these Big Mac Sliders with some Baked Sweet Potato Fries for an easy, delicious meal that our whole family loved.
Ingredient Notes
- 12 ounces king Hawaiian rolls 1 package, or buns
Special Sauce
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tablespoons French dressing
- 4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 Tablespoon minced onion
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Big Mac Sliders
- 2 pounds ground beef
- ½ onion diced
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
- pepper, to taste
- 6 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 cup sliced dill pickles
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
How To Make Homemade Big Mac Sliders:
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Slice rolls horizontally (keeping them connected) and place in the bottom of prepared baking dish; set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, French dressing, pickle relish, onion, vinegar, sugar and salt to make the special sauce; set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add ground beef, onion, seasoned salt and pepper.
- Cook until onions are translucent and beef is browned. Drain excess grease and set aside.
- Spread half of the special sauce on bottom rolls.
- Spread half the beef and onion mixture on top.
- Top with sliced cheese.
- Spread remaining beef and onion mixture on top then spread pickles and lettuce in an even layer on top.
- Spread remaining half of special sauce on the inside of the top half of the rolls and place on top of sliders in the pan.
- Brush melted butter on top of sliders and sprinkle on sesame seeds.
- Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Cut into individual sliders and serve.
Storing and Other Tips
Store leftover Big Mac Sliders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. They rehead best in an air fryer.
Actual Big Macs have shredded lettuce on them, so you can add that right before serving if you want.

Did You Make This Recipe?We’d love to hear your thoughts! Leave a review or a question in the comment section below the post.
When do you use the shredded lettuce on the sliders? Before or after cooking?
After, right before serving. So if you have leftovers also, you can wrap the slider, warm it up again and put lettuce on it after you have warmed it up.
You add the lettuce after cooking the sliders. Right before serving.
These look great. Please forgive my small criticism, but while certainly delicious, real Mac sauce does not use or taste like French dressing or thousand island as many use. The actual recipe is readily available online. I only say this as the recipe title implies you are going for authenticity.
These were so good. They taste pretty much identical to Big Macs but better. These were so fun to make and everyone LOVED them. I got kinda confused about the lettuce but obviously just added right before serving.
I don’t see anything on the ingredient list about butter and sesame seeds.
These are amazing! Tastes just like a Big Mac but better! My kids love them and we’ve had them twice this week. My kids want these instead of heading to McDonald’s. So it’s a win-win!
Tara, Thanks for sharing and we are so glad your family loves the Big Mac Sliders!!
Does the ground beef stay on the bun? It looks like it would fall out and be hard to eat. They look delish!!
Can you freeze them. If so what is the oven time and temp?
I don’t recommend freezing these Big Mac Sliders after being prepared. It would be like freezing a hamburger. With the sauce, bun, lettuce, and other ingredients it would be a little soggy when thawed.
These tasted amazing! But two lbs of ground beef was soooo much. It fell out the sides and made a huge mess. Next time we’ll just stick with one lb of ground beef. Great flavor and everyone loved them!
This recipe has become a staple at our house over that past few years. Always a hit even with the picky eaters. I’ve given this recipe to so many after they try it. Great crowd pleaser!
I couldn’t find French Dressing. Would Catalina work?
Yes, Catalina is a good substitute for French dressing.
Love love love this recipe! The only change I made was that I used less hamburger. The Big Mac taste but healthier!
Do you use white wine vinegar or white distilled vinegar??
Loved this recipe!!! It’s on my rotation of meals!!! So easy and delicious!!!! I agree with other people, it’s the Big Mac but only better!!! Thanks!!!
This was so good! My family loved it and I am a big of Big Macs it seriously tasted just like McDonald’s it is in the rotation now.
Looks like a great recipe. I will be trying this one.
