My ground beef hadn’t thawed completely, so hamburgers were out of the question. I had buns to use, but no other meats ready.
I found this recipe on allrecipes.com, my go-to source of inspiration: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/24264/sloppy-joes-ii/
I tripled the onions and (yellow, not green) bell pepper. I added cayenne pepper and paprika to bump the heat. After 30 minute of simmering, the color wasn’t as red as those packaged versions, so I set the catsup on the table for mom.
Mom didn’t even grab the catsup. That’s a sure sign that these Joes were juicy and slightly sweet. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did.
