Frisch's Big Boy Tartar Sauce

The sauce for Big Boy Hamburgers is a Tartar Sauce that is also used on
fish
sandwiches at Frisch's Big Boy in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Years before McDonald's hit the scene, there was Frisch's. Dave Frisch,
who took over a well-established but conventional restaurant business from
his dad in Cincinnati, Ohio met a fellow entrepreneur from Glendale,
California, who had innovated a new way of cooking hamburgers - two small
patties instead of one cooked faster, and made a double-decker called "Big
Boy®." This was in 1946. The "secret sauce" in the California Big Boy was
Thousand Island salad dressing. Dave wasn't too fond of it, so he used his
own sauce, which was basically a blend of mayo, catsup, and pickle relish,
known as tartar sauce and served in other Frisch's restaurants with fried
fish.

2 cups mayonnaise
Juice of 1/2 lemon
