1/2 tablespoon of canola oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 of a medium green bell pepper, chopped
1 stalk of celery, chopped
1 large clove of garlic, chopped
1 pound of ground beef
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon of Tiger Sauce
1 (15 ounce) can of tomato sauce
1/4 cup of ketchup
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
6 hamburger buns
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add the trinity (onion, bell pepper & celery) and cook until softened but not brown. Add the ground beef and garlic and cook until ground beef is browned, breaking the meat up with a potato masher. Drain off oil if necessary.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, Tiger sauce, tomato sauce, and ketchup. Simmer for about 15 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken. Add a large pinch of salt and some freshly ground pepper; taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
Brush the bun bottoms with the melted butter and in a separate skillet or on a stove top grill, toast the buns. Serve with baby carrots, or a side of beans, or waffle fries, or potato chips and a side salad or a pickle.
