I love sloppy Joes and po' boys so I had an idea to bring them together in one sandwich. The key to a po' boy is the New Orleans French baguette-I love the airy, chewy texture of that bread with the savory sloppy Joe filling. Crispy fried onions add a great crunch similar to what you'd get in a classic fried seafood po' boy.

Steps:
- Heat a 9- to 11-inch skillet over high heat until hot, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour in the olive oil, wait until you see white smoke then add the beef. Press the beef into a flat disc with a spatula and cook undisturbed until brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is brown all over. Start to break up the beef into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Stir and fold and continue to cook until the onion is translucent and the beef is browned on the outside but rare in the middle, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add the ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire, mustard and soy sauce; cook and fold into the beef until mixed well and warmed through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. If you feel the sauce is too thick, stir in a little chicken stock to thin it out. Remove from heat and prepare to build the po' boys.
- Pop the baguettes in a toaster oven until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Alternatively, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and bake the baguettes on a baking sheet until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove and carefully cut each baguette in half crosswise then split them open lengthwise. Spread the mayo evenly across all the halves.
- Divide the sloppy Joe filling evenly among the bun bottoms. Top with cheese, tomato, lettuce and crispy onions. Add a few shots of hot sauce, if you like. Close the po' boys and enjoy!
