Categories: Sandwiches/Wraps

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup finely chopped sweet onion
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green pepper
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 to 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 6 hamburger buns, split
  • 2 tbsp butter, softened

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler. In a skillet, cook beef, onion, green pepper and jalapeno over medium heat 5-7 minutes or until beef is no longer pink, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain.

  2. Stir in chili sauce, water, chipotles, brown sugar and mustard; bring to a boil. Simmer, uncovered, 8-10 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.

  3. Lightly spread cut sides of buns with butter; arrange on a baking sheet, buttered side up. Broil 3-4 inches from heat until lightly toasted, about 30 seconds. Fill with beef mixture.
