- 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
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!
- 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.
