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!

MINI SLOPPY JOES WITH PULLED PORK



Mini Sloppy Joes with Pulled Pork image

If you have leftover pulled pork, with no sauce on it, turn it into sloppy Joe-type sandwiches for a twist on hamburger. Mini Kaiser rolls provide a sturdy, flavorful base for the sandwiches, which can be served alone as an appetizer, or as a main dish when accompanied by your favorite sides. We like fresh corn on the cob and coleslaw.

PORK SLOPPY JOES



Pork Sloppy Joes image

Huey's version of Sloppy Joes, from the Snack Attack section of his website. As always, he has his own take on a recipe and as always he adds lots of heat! Before posting this recipe, I read several hundreds of Zaar recipes for Sloppy Joes and concluded that in 99.9% of cases they are made from ground beef. But that was just my impression so I'll happily be corrected if I've misunderstood the concept. :) Huey's recipe was sufficiently different from all those I read, so I decided to post it. Increase or decrease the heat to meet your taste preferences. Some conversions: 410g = 13oz; 440g = 14oz. And another conversion I had to make because Huey - in typical fashion - was vague in his specification of ingredients: I have converted his "1 good splash soy sauce" into "1-2 tablespoons of soy sauce". From watching his TV cooking shows, I know that by a "splash" he means a fairly liberal splash! Please use your discretion and taste preferences to guide you here! 26 January 2009 UPDATE: Thank you to the two reviewers whose reviews have enabled me to make this update. First, you may like to incorporate some of justcallmetoni's additions. I know if I were making this - minus the heat - I'd be adding onion and garlic. Secondly, appleydapply's finding that there was too much liquid suggests that you need to be cautious of how much liquid you include. As you undoubtedly know, canned tomatoes vary enormously in how much liquid they contain. Aldi's Italian tomatoes contain very little liquid compared with other brands. So I'd suggest pouring off all the liquid or most of it and, as she suggested, reducing or eliminated the amount of stock used. I've retained the original amount but stated that its addition is optional.

Time 13m

Yield 4 Pork Sloppy Joes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (410 g) can diced tomatoes, drained a little (or a lot, depending on the amount of liquid, see UPDATE notes above)
1/2 cup tomato ketchup
1/4 cup chicken stock (perhaps use only if mixture seems too dry, see UPDATE notes above) (optional)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 -2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder or 1 teaspoon chili paste
440 g bought Chinese barbecue pork, shredded (or any other cooked meat, if you prefer)
4 large bread rolls
inner iceberg lettuce leaf
1/2 cup sour cream or 1/2 cup sour cream, to taste

Steps:

  • Put the tomatoes, ketchup, stock, mustard, soy, parsley, sugar, cumin and chilli powder in a heavy-bottomed pan. Stir and gently cook until the mixture is thick and fragrant.
  • Add the pork, stir well and briefly cook to heat through.
  • When the sauce is almost ready, heat the bread rolls in a preheated oven. Then slice them in half and top each half with lettuce, and the bottom half of each roll with a quarter of the pork mixture and a good dollop or two of the sour cream. Press down the top and serve with plenty of serviettes on the side.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of peppers. This will give your sloppy joes a more complex flavor. Some good options include bell peppers, jalapeños, and poblanos.
  • Don't overcook the pork belly. Overcooked pork belly will be tough and chewy. Cook it until it is just tender, about 1 hour per pound.
  • Shred the pork belly before adding it to the sauce. This will help it to distribute evenly throughout the sloppy joes.
  • Use a good quality BBQ sauce. The BBQ sauce is the key to the flavor of sloppy joes, so make sure to use one that you like. You can also make your own BBQ sauce using your favorite recipe.
  • Serve the sloppy joes on toasted buns. Toasted buns will help to absorb the sauce and make the sloppy joes easier to eat.
  • Top the sloppy joes with your favorite toppings. Some good options include cheese, coleslaw, and pickles.

Conclusion:

Pork belly sloppy joes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a casual get-together. They are also a great way to use up leftover pork belly. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a meal that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give pork belly sloppy joes a try. You won't be disappointed!
