1/2 pound ground chuck (some sources recommend 1/2 pound ground-up hot dogs instead)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups tomato sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
1 tablespoon dried minced onion (optional)
1 teaspoons chili powder
Dash of worcestershire sauce

1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Add remaining ingredients; stir well to combine. Simmer over low heat 10 minutes

Simmer a bit more with some added cornstarch/water
to thicken if needed (you probably won’t need to).
