Sloppy Joes. Whoa... Did you just have a flashback to your school days and remember dreading sloppy joe day? :) Well, this recipe will change the way you feel about sloppy joes. I have always loved these classic sandwiches and I always ate them with the manwich sauce, that is until I got married. Jeremy had never liked them with manwich but with just BBQ sauce right out of the bottle poured over the hamburger meat. And really, what fun is that? So after searching thru a ton of recipes for sloppy joes, I created this one which is really a combination of several different recipes. It's one of Jeremy's favorite meals and in the evening when he walks thru the door, if I am cooking it, the first thing he says is "SLOPPY JOES!" just because of the smell. This is SUCH a yummy recipe and not only are your kids going to love it but so are you!
What you need:
1/2 onion diced
1 small clove garlic minced
1 lb hamburger meat
3 tablespoons Masterpiece BBQ sauce
1 cup ketchup
1 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons Tony Chacheres seasoning
2 teaspoons mustard
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Salt & Pepper to taste
What you do:
Brown the meat with onion and garlic. Cook until almost all the pink is out of the meat but make sure to not brown completely. Add in BBQ sauce, ketchip, mustard, salt and pepper, cayenne, T.C. seasoning, brown sugar and garlic powder. Stir to combine. Cover with lid and let simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for about 5-10 minutes.
I served on toasted buns along side homemade french fries and potato chips! Enjoy!
QUICK TIP: Instead of toasting buns on a griddle, I preheat the oven to 350, butter the buns, place on baking sheet and bake for 6 minutes. Then I turn the broiler on HIGH until the edges of buns start to brown. Make sure to keep a close eye on them while under the broiler because they will burn quickly if you don't.
