Directions:
- Mix ground beef and cold water in a cold dutch oven. The beef will absorb the water like a sponge. As it cooks, the water will keep the ground beef from forming large clumps.
- Place over high heat.
- Add onion and spices. Stir occasionally.
- Allow meat to cook until all water evaporates.
- Cook a few minutes longer until the beef gets browned like the outside of a hamburger. The browning makes the sauce richer.
- Turn down the heat to simmer and add the jar of spaghetti sauce. Stir to combine.
- If you want a thinner sauce, add a 16 ounce can of diced tomatoes.
- Heat through.
- Hints: * If you can't get 96% lean ground beef, proceed with recipe, except don't allow the water to evaporate. Drain off the water and fat and return the meat mixture to the pot to brown.
