{This recipe is a work in progress. It is good as is, but I am always tweaking things for more oomph. let me know if you make it, I love suggestions}

1/3 cup ketchup
2 Tbsp brown sugar

1/2 tsp season salt

optional:
1/2 cup water
3 Tbs quick cook oatmeal
(I am going to try a new filler next time I make this recipe, using 1-3 cups finely shredded cabbage. Inspired by this recipe, which received RAVE reviews. )

Brown beef. Add onions and garlic to pan and saute until translucent
Mix in remaining ingredients and simmer for 30 minutes. Serve on buns and enjoy.
