Kathy s Meat Hot Sauce

2 pounds ground beef

2 ½ cups tomato juice

1 ½ tablespoons yellow mustard

1 tablespoon ground black pepper

20 dashes hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)

5 teaspoons chili powder

2 teaspoons red pepper flakes

½ teaspoon salt

Cook ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until meat is crumbly and no longer pink, about 10 minutes; drain excess grease and transfer ground beef to a large saucepan. Mix tomato juice, yellow mustard, black pepper, hot pepper sauce, chili powder, red pepper flakes, and salt into the beef.

Bring the sauce to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring frequently.
