Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Yellow mustard
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons White vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Burger buns
- 4 servings Pickle slices (optional)
- 4 Cheese slices (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up into fine crumbles with a wooden spoon or spatula.
Once the beef is about halfway cooked, add the finely chopped onion and continue cooking until the beef is fully browned and the onions are softened, about 5 minutes.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet and return the beef and onion mixture to the pan.
Stir in the beef broth, brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The liquid should reduce and the flavors will meld together.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a little more salt, vinegar, or sugar to balance the flavors if necessary.
To assemble, spoon a generous portion of the loose meat mixture onto the bottom half of a burger bun.
Top with pickle slices and a cheese slice, if desired, then place the top half of the bun on top.
Repeat for the remaining sandwiches, and serve immediately while warm.
