An easy, very flavorful dinner without too many ingredients.
- 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
- 3/4 cup BBQ sauce, divided – use one with a brown sugar flavor
- 1 package of bacon, cooked, drained, and chopped into small bits
- 1/2-3/4 cup cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup crushed potato chips
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Combine the beef, 1/4 cup of the BBQ sauce, and bacon in a medium bowl and stir until well mixed.
Spread half the beef mixture evenly over the bottom of an 8X8″ pan, then top with the cheese. Spread the remaining half of the beef mixture evenly over the cheese.
Bake 35 minutes and pour off the excess grease.
Top with the remaining BBQ sauce, then the crushed chips. Bake a further 5 minutes, and serve.
Between the bacon and the beef, it might be a good time now to remind everyone that you should not be pouring animal fats down the sink! Once they cool down, they’ll solidify and clog your pipes, and what a giant hassle that’ll be to deal with.
