Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup beef broth (or water)
- 2 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp white vinegar
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked.
- Stir in the tomato sauce, beef broth, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, chili powder, paprika, cumin, and sugar. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the flavors meld together.

- Serve the sauce hot over cooked hot dogs and enjoy!
