In a large skillet, heat over medium heat and add the ground beef. Break it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula as it cooks.
When the beef is just starting to brown, add the finely chopped onion to the skillet. Cook and stir until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Carefully drain off any excess grease from the skillet if necessary, then return it to the stove.
Pour in the beef broth and add Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is mostly absorbed, but the meat is still moist and well-coated in seasoning.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
To assemble the sandwiches, place a generous scoop of the loose meat mixture onto the bottom half of each hamburger bun. Top with dill pickle chips and a drizzle of extra mustard if desired, then cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious loose meat sandwiches!
