Ingredients

1 ½ lb ground beef
3 garlic cloves minced
½ cup ketchup
½ cup hoisin sauce
½ cup water
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
½ teaspoon sriracha
Garnishes: sliced green onions and sesame seeds optional
4 brioche rolls or buns

Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, hoisin, water, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and sriracha, set aside.
In a large skillet on medium heat, break apart ground beef and cook until no longer pink, drain excess grease, and return to pan. Add minced garlic to beef and cook for 1 minute.
Stir in sauce and allow to simmer 5 minutes so sauce can thicken.
Butter and toast buns on both sides. Top buns with meat, then add green onion and sesame seeds if desired.
