It was edible and not bad, but I had two problems with this recipe... the onion and the sugar. I ended up only using about 1/3 of the onion called for in this recipe, since a whole onion would have been far too much. It would have been more precise to offer a chopped measurement. Depending on your onion-to-hamburger ratio preference, I'd say about 3/4 to 1 cup of onion, chopped. I recommend that you chop it very fine, sauté it first, or grate it like the carrot. At the end of an hour at 350F and despite being chopped fairly small, the onion was only about half-cooked. I also found using equal parts ketchup and brown sugar made the sauce too sweet. In future preps, two tablespoons brown sugar for me, max.
Will make again, but with many modifications.
