Classic Burger Relish

We’ve been making this classic for the last thirty years, after a chef shared it with us and blew our minds with its secret ingredient. We’re pretty sure you’ll love it too.

Obviously great with burgers, you’ll find yourself reaching for it with any BBQ meats, as well as cold meat platters and salads.
