Does anyone have a recipe for hamburg gravy that calls for vinegar?

My husband & I both loved the hamburg gravy served over rice that we had while in middle school (25 years ago), but can't find the recipe we're looking for. The cook has since died, but she did tell a friend of mine that the recipe had vinegar in it. I would love to have the recipe.

1. 1 lb ground beef (lean or fat, it's all yummy) 1 medium onion, finely chopped 2 tablespoons cornstarch (just eyeball the amount) 2 cups milk 1 tablespoon liquid smoke 1 tablespoon light soy sauce 1 tablespoon beef bouillon powder 1 tablespoon white vinegar salt and pepper toasted bread Brown beef in a big honkin' skillet. When beef is almost done, throw in the chopped onions and brown as well. Drain off fat if it makes you feel better about this unhealthy meal. Combine corn starch and about 1/2 cup of the milk (don't bother measuring the amount) in blender and set aside. Add remaining ingedients to skillet, in order. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. While stirring, add in the milk/cornstarch mixture slowly, a small amount at a time. Continue simmering and adding milk/starch mixture until desired thickness is reached.
