Critical Success Points

  • Do not use more than 1g baking soda in the beef.
  • Brown and crumble beef into small pieces for best texture.
  • Reduce sauce until very thick; under-reducing will make sandwiches fall apart.
  • Emulsify fat into sauce by stirring well at the end.

Safety Warnings

  • Use caution when handling hot pans and melted butter.
  • Wash hands after handling raw beef and peppers.
  • Ensure beef is fully cooked (no pink remains).
