Best Sloppy Joe Recipe
from kristineskitchenblog.com
These sloppy joes are hearty, saucy and flavorful! Serve the ground beef filling on top of toasted burger buns. On the side, I like to serve baked French fries or sweet potato fries.
Prep Time15 minutes mins
Cook Time10 minutes mins
Total Time25 minutes mins
Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 320kcal
- 1 pound ground beef or ground turkey
- ¾ cup chopped onion
- ½ green bell pepper chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 8 ounces tomato sauce
- ½ cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 hamburger buns toasted, for serving
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef to the pan and cook, crumbling. Drain off any excess grease (this may not be necessary if using lean ground beef).
When the beef has started to brown but hasn't cooked fully, add the onion and bell pepper to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until beef is no longer pink and vegetables have started to soften.
Add the garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
Add the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt and pepper to the pan. Stir. Cook at a low simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until the mixture reached your desired thickness.
Serve Sloppy Joes on toasted hamburger buns.
- Try adding more vegetables to the sloppy joe meat. Carrots, mushrooms or zucchini all work well. Chop the veggies up small and add them to the pan along with the onion and green bell pepper.
