Remarks
This could be served on crispy tater tots or toasted buns. Additional ingredients that could be added are mustard, pickle relish, green pepper, onions, and tomatoes.
If the sauce is too thick for your liking, you can dilute it with beef broth, a little at a time.
If desired, leave out the macaroni and serve it over the crispy potatoes I mentioned earlier.
