Name: Classic Beef Sloppy Joes
Prep time: 10
Cook time: 25
Total time: 35 min
Yield: 4
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: Ground Beef; sweet onions; green bell pepper; tomato sauce; barbecue sauce; ketchup; Worcestershire sauce; brown sugar; dry mustard; whole wheat hamburger buns; dill pickle slices

Preparation

Step 1

Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add onion, cook 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown. Add Ground Beef and bell pepper; cook 8 to 10 minutes, breaking beef into 1/2-inch crumbles and stirring occasionally.

Cooking Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
Step 2

Stir in tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar and mustard; increase heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil; cook 5 to 10 minutes or until sauce is thickened, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, as desired.

Cooking Tip: You may add an additional 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce for sweeter, richer flavor.
Step 3

Divide beef mixture evenly among buns. Top with pickles, coleslaw and cheese, if desired. Close sandwiches.

Cooking Tip: You may serve the beef mixture over hot cooked whole wheat pasta instead of buns.

Excellent homemade beef sloppy joe. I followed the exact recipe then added American cheese on top. Recipes were made to be modified and I will chop up jalapenos and add a little Mrs. dash southwest chipotle seasoning. Perfecto!! Thanks.
