  1. Step 1: Heat oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Cook onions for 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and cook for 30 seconds. Cook ground beef until it is no longer pink. Drain excess fat.
  2. Step 2: Incorporate ketchup and brown sugar. Season generously with chili powder. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a plate.
