Step-by-Step Method
Get everything ready
Keep the salt and pepper close by. This sauce comes together fast, so it helps to have all ingredients measured.
Warm the pan and melt the butter
Place a wide skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt and foam lightly—don’t let it brown.
Build the sauce
Stir in the prepared mustard, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix for about 20–30 seconds until smooth.
Adjust texture and seasoning
If it looks too thick, add 1/2 tbsp water and stir briefly. Season with salt and black pepper to balance the flavor.
Serve right away
Warm your burger patties in the skillet (or spoon over already-cooked patties), then drizzle the sauce on top. If it tightens up in the pan, loosen with a splash of water.
