Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large 10-12" cast iron skillet over high heat.
    2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
  • Once the oil is hot, reduce the heat to medium high, then add the potatoes and a sprinkle of salt evenly over all potatoes. Stir once and let sit to brown the bottom. Cook, stirring often, until the potatoes are turning golden and becoming tender, but not soft, about 6 minutes.
    1 Pound Yukon Gold Potatoes, 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • Remove the potatoes to a dish. Add the meat. Cook, breaking apart the meat.
    1 Pound Ground Beef
  • Push the meat to the sides, and add the onion, stirring until softened, and add the bell pepper until soft. Drain excess grease if needed.
    1 Yellow Onion, 1 Red Bell Pepper
  • Add the Worcestershire, ketchup, liquid smoke, mustard, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper. Continue cooking and breaking up the beef, until the potatoes and onions are tender and the meat is fully cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes more.
    1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce, 1 Tablespoon Ketchup, 1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke, 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard, 2 teaspoons Smoked Paprika, 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder, 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano, 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt, ¼ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
