Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Special Sauce

In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, pickle relish, white vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and sugar.
Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Step 2: Cook the Beef Mixture

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5: Add Toppings and Serve

Remove from the oven and carefully lift the top of the buns.
Spread the prepared special sauce over the cheese layer.
Add shredded lettuce, diced onions, and sliced dill pickles.
Place the top buns back and press gently.
