Mississippi Roast Sloppy Joe Recipe

The Mississippi Roast Sloppy Joe is a hearty sandwich featuring ground beef cooked with onions, garlic, and a flavorful sauce made from mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, dill, paprika, pepperoncini juice, and sliced pepperoncini peppers. The mixture is thickened with beef broth and cornstarch, then served on toasted buns with provolone cheese and optional extra peppers. The combination delivers a balance of savory, tangy, and mildly spicy flavors in a sandwich format.

Description

Ground beef is browned and drained before cooking with sautéed onions that develop slight charred edges and minced garlic. The signature “ranch” sauce blends mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, milk, dried dill, paprika, and pepperoncini juice, creating a tangy and herbaceous base for the sloppy joe filling. Sliced pepperoncini peppers, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup are added for flavor complexity. Butter is stirred in to enrich the mixture, which is thickened with a mixture of beef broth and cornstarch to achieve a cohesive, saucy consistency.

The beef mixture is spooned onto toasted buns—preferably brioche or other favorites—layered with slices of provolone cheese for a mild, creamy contrast. Additional pepperoncini slices can be added atop for extra tang and heat. The result is a messy, satisfying sandwich combining robust beef, subtle heat, and melt-in-your-mouth cheese.
