Step-by-Step Instructions
 

  • Warm up a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the lean ground beef, stirring until it begins to render some of its fat—about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, continuing to cook until the veggies soften and the beef is thoroughly cooked, another 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Blend in the ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and garlic powder. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, reduce the heat to a lower setting, and let simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Scoop the savory meat concoction over the split hamburger buns, ensuring an even distribution, and serve warm.

Notes
