Method

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef, salt, pepper, chili powder and paprika. Cook until very little pink remains on beef. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic then cook until vegetables are soft and translucent, 5 minutes. Drain. Add remaining ingredients (except buns) and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and simmer 15 minutes. Taste for seasoning and adjust, if necessary. Divide filling among hamburger buns and serve.
