Instructions

In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with salt and onion (if using) until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess grease.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and relish to make the burger sauce.
Lay out tortillas. Spread sauce over half of each. Top with cheddar cheese, cooked beef, pickles, and a little more cheese. Fold tortillas in half.
Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla 2–3 minutes per side until golden and the cheese is melted.
Let rest for 1 minute, then slice into wedges and serve warm with extra burger sauce.

Notes

Do not overfill the quesadillas to make flipping easier.
Use low heat for even cheese melting and crispy tortillas.
Make burger sauce ahead of time—it stores well for a week in the fridge.
Use a spatula to gently press quesadillas for better crisp and seal.
