Sloppy joe sandwich
A sloppy joe sandwich is a classic comfort food made with ground beef (or sometimes another meat substitute), onions, bell peppers, tomato sauce, and seasonings. It's typically served on a soft hamburger bun and is known for being deliciously messy to eat - hence the name "sloppy" joe!
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (or meat substitute)
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 1 small green bell pepper finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Hamburger buns toasted
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until cooked through. Drain excess fat if needed.
- Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Simmer the mixture for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld together and the mixture thickens.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto toasted hamburger buns and serve hot.
- Enjoy!
