  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1 Tablespoon garlic powder
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 cups tomato puree
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Hamburger buns, to serve

Instructions

  1. In large skillet, saute onion and pepper until soft and translucent. Remove from pan.
  2. Add ground beef to same skillet and cook until browned. I always add a thin layer of water and mash up the meat with a fork so the ground beef is nice and crumbly.
  3. Once meat is browned, drain any excess grease and add remaining ingredients (except hamburger buns) and sauteed onion and pepper. Mix thoroughly and bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. Serve on hamburger buns.
