Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef

• 1 large onion, finely chopped

• 1 large green bell pepper, finely chopped

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 1 cup beef broth

• ½ cup tomato sauce

• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

• 2 tablespoons ketchup

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

• 4 slices provolone cheese

• 4 hamburger buns, toasted

Instructions

1. Sauté the vegetables:
   Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper and cook until soft, lightly caramelized, and fragrant.

2. Brown the beef:
   Push the vegetables to one side of the pan, add the ground beef, and cook until browned. Break it apart as it cooks to achieve a crumbly texture.

3. Create the sauce:
   Mix the cooked vegetables and beef together. Add beef broth, tomato sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well until the mixture is fully combined.

4. Simmer:
   Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 8–10 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce and thicken.

5. Add the cheese:
   Place a slice of provolone on top of each portion of the meat mixture. Cover the pan and let the cheese melt completely.

6. Toast the buns & assemble:
   Lightly toast your buns, spoon the cheesy beef mixture onto each one, and serve immediately.

Tips for Best Results

• Choose beef with 80/20 fat for juicier results.

• Add mushrooms, jalapeños, or spicy sauce to personalize the flavor.

• For extra cheesy sandwiches, mix shredded provolone directly into the meat.

• Serve with fries, coleslaw, or a simple green salad.

Six-Minute Homemade Caramel 

Quick 6-Minute Caramel – Rich, Silky & Foolproof

Homemade caramel may seem intimidating, but this simple recipe proves that you can create a rich, golden, silky caramel sauce in just six minutes. Whether you want to drizzle it over pancakes, ice cream, pies, or use it in baking, this recipe delivers perfect results every time.

Ingredients

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• ¼ cup water

• ½ cup heavy cream

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the sugar mixture:
   In a heavy saucepan, add the sugar and water. Stir gently just to moisten all the sugar.

2. Heat without stirring:
   Set the pot over medium-high heat. Do not stir as the sugar melts. Instead, swirl the pot gently if needed.

3. Watch carefully:
   The mixture will bubble as the water evaporates. After 4–5 minutes, it will turn a deep amber color. This is your caramel base.

4. Add the cream:
   Remove from heat and slowly pour in the heavy cream while whisking. The mixture will bubble aggressively—this is normal.

5. Add salt & vanilla:
   Stir in salt and vanilla. Mix until smooth.

6. Cool & use:
   Let the caramel cool slightly before using. It thickens as it cools.

Tips

• For a darker caramel, let it cook a few seconds longer.

• Do not stir the sugar as it melts—it prevents crystallization.

• Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
