Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 lb spaghetti pasta
  • 1 3/4 cups beef broth
  • 2 tbsp ranch dressing seasoning
  • 1 1 oz pkt au jus gravy mix
  • 1/4 cup pepperoncini pepper juice
  • 8-10 pepperoncini peppers thinly sliced
  • 4 tbsp butter

Instructions

  • Cook the pasta per the package directions for 'al dente'.
    1 lb ground beef
  • While the pasta cooks, add the ground beef to a large skillet (or Dutch oven) then cook and crumble until the meat's completely browned. Strain off all grease, then return the meat to the skillet.
    1 lb spaghetti pasta
  • Add the broth, seasonings, juice, sliced peppers, and butter to the meat. Stir everything together until evenly combined.
    1 3/4 cups beef broth, 2 tbsp ranch dressing seasoning, 1 1 oz pkt au jus gravy mix, 1/4 cup pepperoncini pepper juice, 8-10 pepperoncini peppers, 4 tbsp butter
  • Bring the mixture to a simmer and gently cook just until the pasta's done.
  • Drain the cooked pasta well, then transfer it to the meat mixture. Gently toss together until evenly combined.
  • Remove the skillet from heat and let the pasta rest for 3-5 minutes.
  • Stir well, serve warm, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Just cook the pasta until it is al dente. Don't over cook it.
  • Do not use thinner pasta than spaghetti. If you use a different pasta, I recommend linguine or a tubular pasta like elbows or penne.
  • Top it with Parmesan cheese if desired.
