Description

Sloppy joes with ground beef and tomato sauce. From Olivia at Flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 1/2 pounds (680g) ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup (240ml) tomato sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 6 soft hamburger buns

Instructions

  1. Cook onion and pepper in oil until soft. Add garlic 30 seconds.
  2. Add beef, salt, and pepper. Brown and drain extra fat.
  3. Stir in tomato sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire, mustard, and vinegar. Simmer 10 minutes until thick enough to sit on a bun.

Notes

The sauce should mound, not run. If it is loose, simmer uncovered a few minutes more.
