These sandwiches have been the go-to meal for my son's basketball team. Turkey is a wonderful change from ground beef and really absorbs all the flavors. I have also used this for a Friday the 13th celebration at work, calling it 13-ingredient sloppy joes. -Karen Hildebrand, LaBelle, Florida

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your sloppy joes will be. Use ripe tomatoes, crisp celery, and fresh ground beef.
  • Don't overcook the beef: Overcooked beef will be tough and dry. Cook it just until it is browned and no longer pink in the center.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce: The barbecue sauce is the key to the flavor of sloppy joes. Choose a sauce that you like the taste of.
  • Add some extras: Feel free to add other ingredients to your sloppy joes, such as diced onions, bell peppers, or even shredded cheese.
  • Serve sloppy joes on a toasted bun: Toasted buns will help to hold up the sloppy joes and prevent them from getting soggy.
