Drunken Sloppy Joes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
    1 cup onion, very finely chopped (I used my mini chopper)
    2 lbs extra lean ground beef
    1 1/2 cups ketchup (I recommend using Heinz)
    1 cup Southern Comfort
    1 cup light brown sugar
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Preparation
    Heat the olive oil in a large and deep pan.
    Add the onions and fry gently until they have started to go tender. This takes about 5 minutes, stirring often.
    Crumble in the ground beef and cook, stirring when needed, until all of the meat is browned. This took me about 8 minutes.
    Add the ketchup, Southern Comfort and brown sugar and stir until everything is combined with the meat.
    Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer and continue to simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring now and then.
    Stir in the dijon mustard and then let simmer for another 15 minutes or until the sauce is the thickness you like with a sloppy joe.
    Serve on buns.
