Ingredients: 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil; 1 medium onion, chopped; 1 lb. ground beef; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1/2 c. ketchup; 1/3 c. packed brown sugar; 2 tbsp. yellow mustard; 1 tbsp. chili powder; Kosher salt; Freshly ground black pepper; 4 tbsp. Butter, for bread; 8 slices sandwich bread; 2 c. shredded cheddar

Step 1In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook, stirring and breaking up meat, until no longer pink, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain fat.
