Place a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and finely chopped onion. Cook for 6-8 minutes, using a potato masher or sturdy spoon to break the meat into very fine crumbles. Continue cooking until the beef is fully browned and the onion is translucent.
Carefully tilt the skillet and spoon out any excess grease. Drain thoroughly to ensure the final mixture isn't greasy.
Return the skillet to medium heat. Pour in the beef broth, then add the yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together until well combined.
Bring the mixture to a steady simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it cook for 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally until most of the liquid has been absorbed by the meat. The mixture should be moist and juicy, not swimming in liquid or completely dry.
While the meat simmers, prepare the buns. For an authentic touch, lightly steam the buns for 30-60 seconds until soft and warm. You can do this in a steamer basket or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds.
To assemble, use a large spoon to pile a generous amount of the loose meat mixture onto the bottom half of each warm bun. Top with dill pickle slices and an extra squirt of mustard if desired. Place the top bun on and serve immediately with a spoon to catch the delicious fallout.
