INGREDIENTS:
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 lb ground beef
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Sauce
- 1 1/2 cups ketchup
- 3 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
- 2 Tbsp firmly packed brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/2-1 cup water
- 4-6 hamburger buns toasted
DIRECTIONS:
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add oil. When oil shimmers, add onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add ground beef, season with salt and pepper and cook until no longer pink, 7-9 minutes. Drain off fat.
In a bowl, combine ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and ½ cup water. Add mixture to browned beef, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 30-45 minutes. Serve with hamburger buns.
