Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons of butter
- Minced garlic, about 6 cloves
- One large sweet onion, like Vidalia®, finely chopped
- Chopped fresh cilantro, around ¼ cup
- Ground beef, approximately 2 pounds
- Brown sugar, 1/4 cup
- Yellow mustard, 2 tablespoons (like Colman's®)
- Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon
- Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon
- Onion powder, 1 teaspoon
- Greek seasoning, to taste (like Cavender's®)
- Hamburger seasoning, to taste (like McCormick® Grill Mates®)
- Garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon
- Ground black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon
- Smokehouse maple seasoning, to taste (like McCormick® Grill Mates®)
- Hickory smoked salt, to taste (like McCormick®)
- Ground nutmeg, to taste
- Barbeque sauce, 2 cups (like Sweet Baby Ray's®)
- Ketchup, 1 cup
- Apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons
- Hamburger buns, 12 pieces
Step 1
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat until it sizzles and smells nutty. Add garlic and stir until it becomes aromatic, enhancing the butter with its pungent flavor, for about 1 to 2 minutes. Introduce a colorful medley of onion, green pepper, and fresh cilantro to the garlicky butter, cooking and stirring until the onion turns tender and translucent, a process that may take anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in another large skillet, sauté ground beef over medium heat until it browns beautifully, taking care to remove any excess fat. Crank up the heat to medium-high and dive into a whirlwind of flavors by incorporating brown sugar, zesty mustard, Worcestershire sauce, a blend of Italian herbs, aromatic onion powder, a hint of Greek seasoning, a sprinkle of hamburger seasoning, piquant garlic powder, earthy black pepper, a touch of smoky maple seasoning, a pinch of smoked salt, and a whisper of nutmeg into the sizzling beef. Let the mixture bubble and meld together for about 4 to 6 minutes until it reaches a hearty boil.
Step 3
Merge the sautéed onion mixture with the seasoned beef, reducing the heat to a gentle simmer. Pour in a luscious combination of barbecue sauce, tangy ketchup, and a splash of apple cider vinegar into the beefy concoction, stirring well to marry the flavors. Cover the skillet and let the mixture simmer and thicken into a rich, tantalizing sauce for around 30 minutes.
Step 4
Finally, scoop generous portions of the savory beef onto soft hamburger buns, creating a mouthwatering sandwich that is sure to delight your taste buds. Serve and enjoy this delectable creation bursting with layers of flavors and textures.

- 2. Keep all your canned goods and sauces in a designated basket or bin in your pantry to prevent clutter and ensure you have everything you need on hand for a spontaneous sloppy joe night.
