1
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped celery and onion to the hot oil and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
2
Add finely chopped garlic to the skillet and allow it to cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
3
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart into smaller pieces with a wooden spatula. Cook the meat until it is no longer pink.
4
Drain the excess fat from the pan if necessary.
5
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and cider vinegar. Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to your liking.
6
Cover the skillet and allow the sauce to simmer on low heat. Stir the sauce intermittently to ensure it doesn’t burn.
7
Cook for about 15-20 minutes until the sauce thickens to your preferred consistency. For a looser sauce, you may add 1/4 cup of water and continue cooking until you achieve the desired thickness.
