THE BEST SLOPPY JOES
This is weeknight comfort food at its finest. We created a homemade sauce that is tangy and flavorful but also quick and easy. We used both ketchup and canned tomato sauce for lots of tomato-y zip and just a touch of brown sugar for a bit of sweetness and slight caramel finish. Green bell pepper is a key addition; it really enhances the other ingredients, elevating the flavor profile into the realm of a true sloppy joe.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and starting to caramelize in some spots, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the beef and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon or spatula, until it is browned, no longer pink in the middle and cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, red wine vinegar, paprika, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened and heated through, 5 to 6 minutes. Spoon the meat onto the toasted buns.

Tips:

- Brown the beef well. This will help to develop the flavor of the meat.
- Drain the excess grease. This will help to keep your sloppy joes from being too greasy.
- Use a good quality barbecue sauce. The barbecue sauce is the key ingredient in sloppy joes, so make sure to use a sauce that you like.
- Add some extras. Feel free to add other ingredients to your sloppy joes, such as onions, peppers, or cheese.
- Serve sloppy joes on a bun. Sloppy joes are traditionally served on a bun, but you can also serve them on a sandwich roll or even a tortilla.
Conclusion:
Sloppy joes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a casual get-together. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a sloppy joe that is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give sloppy joes a try.
