Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned. Season with salt and pepper. Break it into crumbles and drain any excess fat. Set aside.

Step 2: Mix the Secret Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, French dressing, sweet relish, white vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate while prepping the rest to let the flavors meld.

Step 3: Warm the Tortillas

Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Warm each tortilla for about 15 seconds on each side or until soft and pliable. If using sesame seeds, sprinkle a few on the skillet while toasting for that iconic Big Mac bun flair.

Step 4: Assemble the Wraps

Lay out the tortillas and spread a spoonful of secret sauce across the center of each. Layer with shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, diced pickles, diced onions, and cooked beef. Drizzle with mustard.

Step 5: Wrap It Up

Fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito. Slice in half if desired.

Step 6: Toast (Optional)

For extra crunch, return the wraps to the skillet and toast on each side until golden brown.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these wraps ahead of time?

Yes! Prepare all the components ahead and assemble just before serving. Keep the ingredients separate to avoid soggy tortillas.

What kind of tortillas should I use?

Large flour tortillas work best because they’re soft and pliable. Low-carb or whole wheat tortillas are also great options.

Is there a substitute for the secret sauce?

If you’re short on time, Thousand Island dressing makes a decent substitute. But the homemade version really nails that signature flavor.

Can I use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef?

Absolutely. Ground turkey or chicken can be swapped in for a lighter option without losing much flavor.

How do I keep the wraps from falling apart?

Make sure not to overfill and roll them tightly. You can also wrap them in foil or parchment paper to hold their shape.

Are these wraps good for kids?

Yes! You can even skip the onions or pickles if your kids prefer a milder taste.
