Cook Pasta: Cook the pasta according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Brown Beef: In a separate large skillet, cook the grass-fed ground beef over medium heat until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain excess fat if needed.
Saute Onion and Garlic: Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Saute until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add Sauce Ingredients: Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices), beef broth, ketchup, yellow mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the beef and sauce. Stir well to combine, ensuring that the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the pasta mixture. Stir gently to incorporate the cheese into the pasta until melted and creamy.
Serve: Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious grass-fed cheeseburger pasta!
