- 1 tbsp Sweet & Spicy Mustard

- 1 tsp Hot Sauce
- 1 tsp Red Pepper Flake

Directions
1.) Heat oil in a large skillet and add onions and garlic to the pan when hot. Cook the onions and garlic, stirring frequently, until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes.’
2.) Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it up and mixing it in with the garlic and onions. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the meat is just about cooked, and broken into smaller pieces.
3.) Next add the remaining ingredients: tomato sauce, mustard, Worcestershire, hot sauce, red pepper, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together until well combined and then cover with a lid and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes to prevent burning.
