Zubereitung

1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and sauté for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
2
Add the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for 6 to 8 minutes, breaking the meat into small crumbles, until no pink remains and the beef reaches 74°C/165°F.
3
Stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Scrape the bottom of the skillet to loosen the browned bits and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

4
Simmer uncovered for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until the sauce is thick enough to coat the beef but still moist. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
5
Toast the cut sides of the buns in a dry skillet or toaster for 1 to 2 minutes, until lightly browned and crisp at the edges.
6
Spoon the hot beef filling onto the toasted bun bottoms, cap with the bun tops, and serve immediately with pickles or salad.

Warum dieses Rezept gelingt

Browning the beef develops savory depth, while tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar create a balanced glaze of acidity, sweetness, and umami. A brief simmer melds the flavors without making the filling watery.

Aufbewahren und Aufwärmen

So bewahrst du es auf

Refrigerate the cooled beef filling in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Store buns separately to prevent them from becoming soggy. Freeze the filling for up to 3 months.

So wärmst du es auf

Reheat the filling in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until steaming hot throughout, or microwave covered in short intervals. Add a splash of water if needed.
