Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 pound ground beef, We use ButcherBox grass-fed ground beef
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper
- ¼ cup ketchup
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup bacon crumbles, plus extra for serving
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 cups uncooked pasta, I used elbow macaroni pasta
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- pickles, for serving, optional
Instructions
- Add olive oil to a dutch oven/pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, about 1-2 minutes, just until onions are translucent.
- Add the ground beef, garlic powder, salt and pepper to the pot. Cook, breaking up the ground beef with your spoon until browned, 6-8 minutes.
- Stir in the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, bacon crumbles, and beef broth. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
- Add in the pasta and reduce the heat to medium. Let it cook uncovered until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes.
- Turn off the heat and stir in shredded cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Optional: serve with pickles, additional bacon crumbles and cheddar cheese.
