Sometimes, sloppy Joes is the only thing the sounds good. Let me rephrase, sometimes super sloppy Joes are the only thing that sound good because my cafeteria lady's sloppy joes left me dissatisfied. This is a great one because the average person who eats food will have all the ingredients on hand. So I will let you in on the secret. Partly because I was too late for it to get published in a cookbook and partly because I like to share a good thing when I find it.
To start you need to gather your ingredients:
Ketchup, BBQ sauce, Salsa (two nearly empty jars both = salsa) mustard and 1 lb. Hamburger--already browned with green peppers and onions.
I usually multitask when cooking. This time I was working on my dance moves, so I decided to mix the sauces first. 1 Cup ketchup, 1/2 C. Salsa
Smaller portions now: 1 Tb. mustard, maybe it calls for 2?
1Tb. BBQ sauce
Yep that bottle was nearly empty and exploded after shaken.
Clean as you go! BBQ sauce is sticky!!
Now add the meatiness and go stir crazy.
And stir while on low. Only let it simmer for a short time. It just needs to be warmed but the longer it sits being warmed the better I think it tastes.
Especially on toasted buns. Better than the cafeteria ladies for sure...
