Better Than Maid-Rite Sandwiches - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb 85% lean ground beef
1/2 cup white onion, minced
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
1 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup Coca-Cola
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
1/4 cup dill pickle, thinly sliced
4 cheese slices (optional)
4 hamburger buns

Preparation

Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the ground beef and the minced onions, sprinkle with garlic powder and saute for a couple of minutes. Flip the meat mixture in the skillet and sprinkle again with more garlic powder. Break up the meat as much as you can with a spatula. Soon as the meat has lost most of its pinkness - remove from the burner.
In a 4 cup measuring cup, mix together the broth, Coca-Cola, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and the brown mustard. Stir this mixture into the skillet and return the skillet to the burner. Bring to a boil, stirring often to break up the meat. Soon as the meat mixture reaches a boil, lower the heat to a simmer and continue cooking over low heat till the liquid has been absorbed, about 45 - 60 minutes. It is very important to slowly simmer the meat till all of the liquid is absorbed thus imparting all of the flavors into the meat.
Split the hamburger buns or sandwich rolls, smear some yellow mustard on the inside of the upper buns. Spread a couple of thin pickle slices on the lower half of the buns. Spoon equal amount of the meat mixture over the lower bun halves, top with an optional slice of cheese then place the bun top on top.
