HOW TO MAKE BBQ BEEF PASTA SKILLET

• Ground Beef
• Red Bell Pepper
• Salt
• Beef Broth
• BBQ Sauce
• Frozen Corn
• Rotini Pasta
• Shredded Cheddar Cheese

MY TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS

• Use a good bbq sauce!

  • I prefer using Sweet Baby Ray's bbq sauce for this recipe. The flavor really shines through in this recipe so make sure you use a good quality, good tasting bbq sauce.
  • I would suggest not using a sweet bbq sauce like honey bbq sauce or brown sugar bbq sauce. It will give an oddly sweet taste to this savory dinner recipe.

• Should I use reduced-sodium beef broth?

  • I would suggest using the regular, full-salt beef broth as that is what the recipe has been tested with.
  • Feel free to use the reduced sodium beef broth but you may want to increase the salt to 1 teaspoon while cooking the ground beef or add some salt at the end depending on preference.

• Be sure and drain the ground beef after cooking

  • You want to drain the excess liquid/grease after cooking the ground beef otherwise it will make the final dish really oily.
  • Either use a paper towel to soak up all the excess liquid after cooking OR put a colander over a bowl/grease container and drain the cooked ground beef that way. Add the ground beef back into the pan after it has drained.

• Can I make this dish spicy?

  • The recipe as written is not spicy or hot at all.
  • If you want to make it spicy try using shredded Pepper Jack cheese, add some cayenne pepper or chili powder in with the beef broth and pasta. You can also garnish and serve this dish with sliced jalapeños as well.

• Sprinkle the remainng 1 cup of cheese on top and cover the pan with the lid until the cheese is melted.

• I love to serve this with sour cream and sliced green onion. You can also serve it as is with no toppings.

BBQ SAUCE : Use a good tasting bbq sauce. The flavor really shines through so use one that you love. I always use Sweet Baby Rays regular bbq sauce. I would stay away from the sweet sauces like the honey bbq sauce or the brown sugar bbq sauce because that will bring a really sweet, odd flavor to this savory dinner recipe.

BEEF BROTH : I use full salt beef broth in this recipe. If you use reduced-sodium beef broth you may want to add some additional salt depending on preference and taste.

CAN I MAKE IT SPICY? The recipe as written is not spicy or hot at all. If you want to make it spicy try using shredded Pepper Jack cheese, add some cayenne pepper or chili powder in with the beef broth and pasta. You can also garnish and serve this dish with sliced jalapeños as well.

Recipe has been updated with better & more helpful text, better pictures, and slightly improved recipe in March 2021. I increased the pasta to 2 cups (as lots were complaining of too much water still in the their skillet after the cook time).
