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)

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up into fine crumbles with a wooden spoon or spatula.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

Drain any excess grease from the skillet and return the beef and onion mixture to the pan.

Step 4

Stir in the beef broth, brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Taste the mixture and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a little more salt, vinegar, or sugar to balance the flavors if necessary.

Step 7

To assemble, spoon a generous portion of the loose meat mixture onto the bottom half of a burger bun.

Step 8

Top with pickle slices and a cheese slice, if desired, then place the top half of the bun on top.

Step 9

Repeat for the remaining sandwiches, and serve immediately while warm.
