Ketchup
Ketchup is in 33 recipes and is doing more than adding tomato. It is simultaneously sweet, sour and salty, which is why it works as a base for burger sauces rather than just a topping — most of the copycat sauces on this site are mayonnaise plus ketchup plus one acidic element. Straight out of the bottle onto a hot patty it thins out and runs, so several recipes here mix it into the sauce instead. Brands differ in sugar and vinegar levels enough to change a sauce noticeably.
