I have been looking for a sloppy joes recipe for
a while. I found the beginning recipe for this one on-line. These
are very good, as is, but add some hot sauce if you like them
spicer.
My favorite new way to server these is to stuff the sloppy joe
mix inside a uncut sandwich bun. Take a bolillo bun, or some other
unsliced sandwich roll, cut the end off and hollow out the loaf
without cutting through to the outside. Spoon the meat mixture
into this roll, and enjoy the sloppy joe without making a mess. |
1 lb ground beef
(85/15)
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1/3 cup celery, finely chopped
1/4 - 1/3 cup bell pepper, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
3 tbls ketchup
2 tbls barbecue sauce |
1/4 cup water
1 - 2 tbls red wine (optional)
1 tbls light brown sugar
1 tbls Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 tbls cider vinegar
1 tsp dry mustard
1/2 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
3/4 tsp black pepper, or to taste
|
Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium high
heat (do not drain the grease). Add the onion, garlic,
celery, and bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables
are done.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl, mix
well. Add this mixture to the skillet, cover and
simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally (add
about 1/2 cup water if needed).
Uncover the skillet, and continue to cook the mixture
until it's the consistency you like for serving.
Cliff Note 1: We use Sweet Baby Ray's
barbeque sauce.
Cliff Note 2: For the kids, serve this
sloppy joes mix over a hotdog kind of like a chilidog.
