I scaled this recipe down to 2 pounds of ground beef. It didn't turn out to our liking. Nothing wrong with the recipe or instructions. I let it sit overnight in the refrigerator as suggested. I thought it tasted salty and did not have enough tomato flavor. We had to add ketchup or barbeque sauce in order to eat it. Will not make this again. Just noticed that chef Jellyqueen uses it as a mix for chili or soup. I thought it was supposed to be eaten straight out as is.

This is a great mix to fix up and freeze for those days when you need something in a hurry. Just perfect for pulling out for that fast pot of chili, or even for a good soup on these cool fall days!!!! Great recipe for those who like to do the OAMC.
