Meat Sauce
for Filling Tacos

This is the meat sauce recipe I made
to go into homemade tortilla tacos.
It's also a great meat sauce on hot dogs.

Ingredients:
2 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1 cup water
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/3 cup ketchup
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 tablespoon pepper
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
crushed red pepper flakes to taste

Directions:
Crumble ground beef into a Dutch oven over medium heat.
Stir in water, and break up ground beef.
Stir in tomato sauce, ketchup, salt,
pepper, sugar, and chili powder; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low; simmer, 60 to 90 minutes,
until the sauce reaches a medium consistency.
Remove and blend in a food processor to get the
consistency you desire, I like it real fine.
