I'm not a big fan of ground beef, but these sloppy joes were really good. The sauce was flavorful and the meat was tender.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sloppy joes turned out really runny. I think I might have added too much water.

I made these sloppy joes in the slow cooker and they turned out great! The meat was fall-apart tender and the sauce was delicious.

These sloppy joes were just okay. The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sloppy joes turned out great. The only thing I would change next time is to use a different type of bread. I used hamburger buns, but I think hoagie rolls would be better.
