To make sloppy joes, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 small green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Hamburger buns
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make sloppy joes:
1. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Break it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
2. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper.
4. Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet with the beef and vegetables. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
5. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.
6. While the sloppy joe mixture is simmering, lightly toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or oven if desired.
7. Once the mixture has thickened and the flavors have melded, it is ready to be served. Spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto the toasted hamburger buns.
8. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade sloppy joes! You can add pickles, cheese, or any other desired toppings to enhance the taste.
