2 pounds ground beef
In a Dutch oven over medium heat, cook beef, onion, celery, and green pepper until the meat is no longer pink and the vegetables are tender; drain.
Add the next nine ingredients; mix well. Simmer, uncovered, for 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Spoon 1/2 cup meat mixture onto each bun and serve (with lots of napkins!).

I make this with my Girl Scout troupe. We sometimes add about a teaspoon of chili powder to the seasoning mix for a slightly different flavor and a bit more zest.
