Servings: 8 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion chopped
- 1 small green pepper chopped
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon distilled vinegar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup ketchup
- 8 hamburger buns toasted if desired
Instructions
- Brown and crumble the ground beef in a medium skillet. Drain.
- Add the remaining ingredients except for the hamburger buns and simmer for 20-30 minutes. The sauce will thicken more the longer it cooks.
- Serve on hamburger buns.
Notes
- The longer you allow the sauce to simmer, the thicker it will be. If you like a messier sauce, use the shorter time. If a less messy sauce is your thing, allow the sauce to cook a bit longer.
- For even more flavor, add a shake or two of Worcestershire sauce.
- Watching your sugar or carb intake? Use low-sugar ketchup and substitute golden monk fruit sweetener (or similar product) for the brown sugar.
