This is my modification of the Sweet and Sour Meatballs from the ‘old’ Betty Crocker cookbook, circa, 1974… … (Don’t do the math - PLEASE!)
1 lb ground beef
1/2 c brown sugar
1 T cornstarch
1 can pineapple chunks
1/3 c vinegar
1 T soy sauce
1 bell pepper chopped (or chunked)
Cook the hamburger in a big skillet. Toss in the brown sugar and cornstarch. Stir to combine with the browned meat. Pour in the soy sauce and the vinegar and the can of vinegar. Toss in the cut up bell pepper and simmer. Put a lid on it and check it - should take about 10 minutes.
Serve over rice..

In the event that you have to ‘hold’ dinner for someone that’s late… … …. Just use a little chicken broth as needed. You can pour enough it to keep the sauce from getting too thick and put the burner on low.
If they’re ‘really’ late, you can end up using an entire can… … …
