  1. Heat your Dutch oven over medium heat and add the ground beef and diced white onion. Cook for about 3-5 minutes, until the meat is just starting to brown. If desired, drain the fat, or you can leave it undrained.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then cover the Dutch oven and cook for 30 minutes.
  3. Stir the meat mixture and continue to simmer, partially covered, for 30 minutes, or until most of the moisture has been absorbed or evaporated.
  4. Spread both hamburger buns with mustard, and top the bottom bun with a couple pickles. Top with the warm loose meat hamburger and then top with cheese. Eat while warm.
