Homemade Sloppy Joes

Homemade sloppy joes are nearly as easy as the canned sauce but they taste oh so much better! Kids and adults both love this tangy sauce! You can switch it up with chicken or turkey too. The sweet, savory, tangy sauce works well in lots of recipes!

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks.
  2. When beef is partially cooked through, add the onion, pepper, and garlic to the pan and continue cooking and stirring until meat is fully cooked and vegetables have softened. Drain grease and return to the pan.
  3. Add the ketchup, mustard, vinegar, brown sugar, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, salt, and pepper to a small bowl and whisk well to combine.
  4. Pour the sauce over the ground beef and stir to coat.
  5. Simmer the meat mixture for 5-10 minutes to thicken up as much as you'd like before spooning onto sandwich rolls.

Notes

  • Use any color bell pepper you prefer or leave it out entirely if you have picky eaters.
