Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Homemade Cowboy Spaghetti
1. Prepare the Ingredients
- Begin by dicing the bacon, chopping the onion, and mincing the garlic. Set aside.
- Gather all spices and other ingredients for easy access during cooking.
2. Cook the Bacon
- Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add diced bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set it aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
3. Brown the Ground Beef
- In the same skillet, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up into crumbles with a wooden spoon. This should take about 6-8 minutes.
- Drain any excess fat if necessary.
4. Sauté the Aromatics
- Push the beef to one side of the skillet.
- Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
5. Build the Cowboy Sauce
- Stir the onion and garlic into the browned beef.
- Add the tomato paste and mix until combined.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes (with juice), beef broth, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
- Simmer the mixture on low heat for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
