Description

A nostalgic and hearty American sandwich filled with savory ground beef and tangy sauce, perfect for weeknight meals and gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Burger buns

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, over medium heat, brown the ground beef until cooked through, draining any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let simmer for about 10 minutes.
  4. Serve the mixture generously on toasted burger buns and enjoy while warm.

Notes

Consider using lean ground beef or swapping for ground turkey/chicken for a lighter option. Toast the buns to add crunch.
