Big Mac Pizza

Yes you heard correctly. Finally found something to do with the left over big mac sauce when we have burgers. It was actually excellent.

Also I seasoned all of the beef, added some breadcrumbs and egg to the leftovers and formed into burgers to freeze.

Also, also yes we finally have a HexClad pan!
