Steps:

• BEEF FILLING: Combine in a mixing bowl raw ground beef, flour, chili powder, salt, minced onion flakes, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder.
• Mix thoroughly like you would mix a meatloaf.
• In a skillet on the stove top, add 1/2 cup of cold water and the seasoned ground meat mixture. Mix well.
• Cook over medium heat, mash and stir ground meat as it cooks, breaking it up.
• Cook until meat is no longer pink and slightly browned.
• The meat mixture should be loose, without any large pieces. Drain off any grease or liquid. Steam the burger buns slightly to warm and soften them.
• FOR THE BORDER SAUCE: Add cold water to a saucepan. Stir in the cornstarch until it is dissolved.
• Stir in the tomato paste, vinegar, chili powder, salt and cayenne pepper. Stir until well mixed and smooth.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5-minutes to thicken.
• Allow sauce to cool then store in a covered container in the refrigerator. Makes about 1 1/2 cups of Mild Border Sauce.
• TO BUILD THE BELL BURGER: Spread a tablespoon of Mild Border Sauce on the bottom bun.
• Place several tablespoons of the meat mixture on the bottom bun like making a sloppy joe.
• Add 2 tablespoons of Taco Bell Mild Border Sauce evenly over the meat on bun.
• Sprinkle 1 or 2 Tbsp of shredded mild cheddar cheese over meat mixture on bun. Add the top bun.
• Repeat 5 more times. Serve warm.
