- 2 pounds regular ground beef;
drained and rinsed
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 8 ounce can tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
First fry up your hamburger and onion in
a large skillet. Break it up into small
pieces with a fork as you fry it. Cook it
until all of the pink is gone, and only gray
meat remains. Drain off all the fat. Place
the meat and onion in a strainer and rinse
in hot tap water. Drain well.
Skillet Method: Rinse the skillet. Transfer
the meat and onion back into the skillet.
Add the tomato sauce, ketchup, salt, pepper
and chili powder. Simmer for about 20
minutes. If the mixture becomes too thick
then add a little water to thin it down.
Probably 1/4-cup will be enough. Spoon onto
buns and serve.
Crock Pot Method: Transfer your cooked,
rinsed and drained meat to a Crock Pot or
Slow Cooker. Add the tomato sauce, ketchup,
salt, pepper and chili powder. Cover the pot
and cook on High for 3 hours or on Low for 5
or 6 hours. Spoon the mixture onto buns, or
Fred's Favorite Rolls, and enjoy. Great
Summer Time meal, because it doesn't heat up
the kitchen.
