Chad’s Favorite Sloppy Joe Recipe

You know when you have a recipe that your husband loves… the recipe where other recipes pale in comparison to their taste buds? Well, this Sloppy Joe recipe is my husband’s favorite. I tried making another recipe – and got “the look” coupled with “the comments” about how it wasn’t as good as his favorite Sloppy Joe recipe.

Ingredients:
Servings 4 Units

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon French’s yellow mustard
  • 12 cup ketchup
  • 14 cup barbeque sauce
  • 3 teaspoons brown sugar
  • Salt and black  pepperto taste
  • Dash of cayenne pepper (Jen’s Note: Add more if you want a lot of spice)
  • 12 cup shredded cheese (Jen’s Note: I use the Mexican blend from Costco)

Directions

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion and garlic; drain off liquids.
  2. Stir in the mustard, ketchup, BBQ sauce, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly.
  3. Season with salt, pepper & cayenne pepper to taste.
  4. Reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. Serve on buns and top with shredded cheese.

Serve with:

  1. Potato chips (we love Salt and Vinegar because the tart flavor goes well with the bold flavor of the Sloppy Joe’s)
  2. Fresh carrot sticks for a little bite of sweet
  3. Fresh fruit – like pineapple or watermelon

I’ll see you at the table!
