Summer-time Sloppy Hamburgers on a Bun

Karen Clifford

1 ½ cups finely chopped sweet onions
6 lbs ground beef

Cook beef and onions together over medium heat stirring often. Drain off excess fat. Add rest of ingredients and simmer covered about ½ hour. Serves 12.

2 cups catsup
1 ½ cups water
1 cup finely diced celery
6 tbsp lemon juice
3 tbsp brown sugar
4 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
4 ½ tsp salt
1 ½ tsp dry mustard

NOTE: For another meal with left over ingredients mix 1 1/3 cups of mixture above to 1 can kidney beans including liquid, and ½ to 1 cup tomato juice. Add chili powder to taste, but little children like their chili without the chili powder. Makes a great chili. Print Recipe
