Foodies are raving about a bargain burger sauce on social media after one McDonald’s lover said it tastes “exactly the same” as the sauce on a Big Mac.

The Fire Pit Burger Sauce – which is part of UK supermarket chain Tesco’s wider Fire Pit range – is a sauce made with a delicate combination of gherkin, dill and mustard, according to the product description online.

It’s the perfect accompaniment to any burger or BBQ treat this summer.

And not only does it apparently taste “exactly the same” as the sauce used on fast food chain McDonald’s iconic Big Mac burger, but it’s a fraction of the price.

The Fire Pit Burger Sauce will set you back just £1.

A rave review of the must-have summer condiment was shared by an eagle-eyed shopper to the ever-popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook, who spotted tubes of the discounted sauce at their local Tesco branch this week.

They said: “If you love the sauce on Big Macs, [then] get this, it tastes exactly the same [and is only] £1 from Tesco.”

It seems to have gone down a real treat with fellow foodies in the 1.7 million-member group, too, as the post went on to amass well over a thousand interactions and comments in less than 24 hours.

One commenter added her own rave review saying: “This is the one I always have – this is exactly the same as a Big Mac sauce [and] I use it in the Big Mac in a bowl recipe.”

“I need to try this.” another added.

If you are looking to head to your nearest Tesco branch to stock up on the Fire Pit Burger Sauce and try it out for yourself next time you fire up the barbecue this summer, then you can check the opening times via the Tesco Store Locator here.
