INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Brown the ground beef in an oven safe skillet, breaking up with a wooden spoon, for 3 minutes. Add the onion, red bell pepper and garlic, and continue cooking until beef is no longer pink and veggies are tender. Drain any excess fat and return skillet to stove top.
- Add the ketchup, water, brown sugar, chili powder, mustard, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper to the beef mixture and stir to combine over medium low heat, until slightly thickened.
