Ingredients 

Marinade:

  • 2 lbs ground beef, chuck roast or beef tenderloin
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ Tbsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp garlic, chopped

Ingredients:

  • ¼ cup avocado oil, or any neutral cooking oil
  • 1 whole onion, minced
  • 2 celery stalks, minced
  • 1 whole red bell pepper, minced
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp red chili flakes
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp yellow mustard
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 Tbsp mushroom powder
  • 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup beef broth
  • 8 hamburger buns, preferably brioche buns, lightly toasted

Thickener:

  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • ¼ cup water

Instructions

  • Mix marinade ingredients together and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, on medium high heat, add oil and onions, celery, bell peppers, a pinch of salt and sauté for 3 minutes.
  • Add ground beef and the aromatics.
  • Mix the aromatics into the beef, then add the rest of the ingredients. Mix everything together and “stab” beef with spatula to break up meat into pieces.
  • Add beef broth and bring it to a boil.
  • Then add thickener and reduce heat to a medium low. Let it simmer for 15 minutes, stirring often so the beef doesn’t stick to the pan.
  • Stuff buns with sloppy joe mix and serve!
