MY FAMILY'S FAVORITE SLOPPY JOES (PIZZA JOES)



My Family's Favorite Sloppy Joes (Pizza Joes) image

I've tried many recipes, this is the best. I once 'dec-tupled' (10x) this recipe to sell sandwiches at a craft fair at my church. People were waiting in line to buy leftovers. Freezes well, goes up to the lake or camping well and is a hit on Halloween...it's no-fail. Easy to double, triple, etc. I've been making Joes this way for over 20 years. ***03-08-09, I just reinvented this recipe tonight when I went to make it for dinner and found I didn't have an 8-oz. can of tomato sauce (shame on me). The family was upset with me when I subbed an 8-oz. can of pizza sauce and told them to suck it up and call them 'Pizza Joes' and then served them up with shredded mozzarella cheese on the toasted buns, top and bottom. They loved it. I left out the BBQ sauce in this preparation and just used a 1/2 cup ketchup. Pizza Joes are good to go!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lbs hamburger
2 cans chicken gumbo soup
1 onion, chopped
4 teaspoons catsup
1 teaspoon dry mustard
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Brown meat and onion.
  • Add rest of ingredients.
  • Simmer for 1/2 an hour or more.
  • Serve on hamburger buns.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: Use a lean ground beef, such as 80/20 or 90/10, to avoid greasy sloppy joes.
  • Brown the beef thoroughly: Cook the beef over medium-high heat until it is no longer pink. This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Don't just use ketchup and mustard. Experiment with different spices and herbs, such as chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce, to create a unique flavor.
  • Simmer the sauce: Let the sauce simmer for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Use high-quality buns: The buns are an important part of sloppy joes. Use soft, fresh buns that will hold up to the sauce.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Sloppy joes are a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Try topping them with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, onions, pickles, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Sloppy joes are a classic American comfort food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make the best sloppy joes that your family and friends will love.
