This is an easy and very tasty sauce - and it's spicy!
NOTE: This is a very easy recipe but it isn't fast. It takes almost 2 hours of slow simmering to reduce the liquid and make the sauce thick enough for the hot dog.
Ingredients:
1 lb. very lean ground beef or ground turkey
1 15.5 ounce can of beef broth
1 18 ounce can of tomato sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
½ tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon grated raw onion OR ½ teaspoon onion power
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground red peppers (or omit if you don't want it spicy)
½ teaspoon sugar
Directions:
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until brown and very crumbly. To get a finer crumbling, use a hand-held potato masher or wooden spoon and work the cooking ground beef to break it up.
When the ground beef is brown, most of the liquid should be cooked away. If there is any grease in the pan, you can drain it. If there is only a little bit of grease, you can leave it in for the flavor.
2. Add beef broth and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to medium and simmer until the liquid is almost gone (about 30 minutes).
3. To the ground beef mixture, add tomato sauce and all of the seasonings. Simmer, stirring frequently, for about 1 ½ hours until the mixture is very thick.
