Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 8 bacon slices cooked
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2/3 cup beef broth
- 2/3 cup tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 6 hamburger buns
Garnish:
- Pickles
- mustard
- cooked bacon
- Yellow cheese slices
Instructions
- Place a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, and once hot, add the bacon slices to the pan. Coon until crispy. Remove and set aside.
- Drain grease, leaving in only about two tablespoons.
- Add the ground beef and brown until a deep brown crust appears on the bottom. Break it with a wooden spoon and continue cooking until it is no longer pink. Drain the fat.
- Add the onion to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Chop half of the bacon and add it back to the pan.
- Add salt, black pepper, paprika, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and stir to combine.
- In a small bowl, combine beef broth and cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add the mixture to the pan.
- Cook until the mixture is just slightly liquidy, for about 5-6 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, and stir in the cheddar cheese until melted.
- Serve on hamburger buns topped with cheese, bacon, pickles, ketchup, and mustard.
Notes
- Although it is optional, toasting is a good idea because it will keep the buns from getting soggy. The crispiness of the buns also gives a nice contrast to the sandwich and makes them easier to handle. It only takes five minutes to toast them in the oven at 350 degrees F or simply pop them in the toaster. A skillet set on medium with a bit of butter will also work. The air fryer is also a good option.
- Get lean ground beef of at least 85/15 so there is not too much grease.
- Drain as much fat from the bacon and beef as possible.
- Do not skip the cornstarch slurry. It is essential to keep the meat sauce together.
- Make sure the ground beef and onions are cooked thoroughly.
- Use low-sodium beef broth to prevent the sloppy joes from being too salty.
