Best 8 Sloppy Joes For A Crowd Recipes

CHURCH SUPPER SLOPPY JOES FOR 60

Steps:

• In a very large fry pan, brown hamburger meat in three batches. Once the first batch is about half way browned, add 1/3 of the onion, 1/3 of the celery and 1/3 of the flour. Once the meat is browned, move the mixture to a big soup pot and repeat with two more batches.
• Use an 8 quart soup pot. I have used a 6 quart, it works but a little tight on space.
• Once all of the ingredients are in the big soup pot, add remainder of the ingredients and simmer for at least 30 minutes. If the mixture seems dry, or needs a little punch of flavor, I add a little bit of your favorite bottled bbq sauce.
• Adjust seasonings to taste and serve on hamburger buns.
