Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds ground beef (80% lean)
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup Italian-style bread crumbs
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon granulated onion
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • Mix steak sauce, ketchup, and sugar together in a small bowl.
  • Remove from the oven and spoon sauce over top. Bake until no longer pink in the center, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
