Boston Baked Beef

10 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 12 slices bacon, cut into bits
  • 1 large sweet onion
  • 1 pound 80/20 ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 ounces tomato paste
  • 1/3 cup grainy mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/3 cup molasses
  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. 1
    In a heavy-bottomed pot over medium high, brown the bacon. Set aside, leaving all drippings in the pan.
  2. 2
    Add the onions and sautee until translucent.
  3. 3
    Add the ground beef and brown.
  4. 4
    Reduce heat to medium-low, then add the molasses, tomato paste, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to medium. Stir vigorously to break up chunks and prevent sticking, using a whisk if you need to. Add the bacon.
  5. 5
    Allow mixture to come to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1 hour or more (the longer, the better!).
