Very Best Sloppy Joe Recipe
Description
The Very Best Sloppy Joe Recipe starts by preparing a sauce blending ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and yellow mustard. Ground beef cooks in oil until browned and broken into small pieces. Chopped onions sauté with the beef until translucent, then minced garlic is added briefly before lowering the heat. The sauce is mixed in and the filling simmers for 10 minutes, thickening and melding flavors.
While cooking, hamburger buns are toasted to provide a slightly crisp exterior to hold the moist beef mixture. The saucy beef is spooned generously into buns for a handheld savory sandwich with a slightly sweet, tangy sauce. This combination offers an appealing textural contrast between soft beef and toasted bread.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef 85% or leaner
- 1 onion chopped, small
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 1/2 cup ketchup

- 1 tbsp neutral cooking oil avocado or olive, generic cooking oil
- 1/2 tsp salt adjust to taste

- To a large heavy bottom skillet preheated over medium-low, add the oil. Add in the ground Beef and brown it, breaking apart the larger chunks as you go.
- Once beef is cooked thoroughly, add in the onion, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until the onion is translucent.
- Add in minced garlic and cook it for about a minute. Reduce the heat to low and add in the sauce.
- Simmer the Beefy mixture for about 10 minutes. While the Ground Beef is cooking, toast the buns.
- Fill each bun with a generous amount of the slopping joe filling. Enjoy!
