Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 lb ground meat (I used 93% lean ground turkey)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 small diced green pepper
- 1 small diced sweet onion
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 2-4 tbsp Smokey Onion Bacon BBQ Sauce (or use any other BBQ sauce)
For the Sauce:
- 1/4 cup ketchup (I use True Made Foods Brand)
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 2 tsp yellow mustard
- 1 /2 tsp anchovy paste (optional and can be replaced with Worcestershire sauce)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients and stir to combine. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat oil. Add diced peppers and onions and cook until softened. Add in minced garlic and stir for one minute. Remove vegetables from skillet and place in a bowl.
- Next, add ground meat to the skillet and cook, breaking up any large pieces. Once meat is no longer pink, add back in the vegetables and stir the sauce into the mixture. Let the mixture simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring every so often to allow the flavours to blend.
Notes
- Start with 2 tbsp of BBQ sauce and add more depending on your family's preference on sweeteness.
