AWESOME OPEN-FACE SLOPPY JOES



Awesome Open-Face Sloppy Joes image

I love Sloppy Joes because there are so many different ways you can make them. You can be boring, or you can be adventurous. After a few hours playing around with this in the test kitchen, I would define this version as being mildly adventurous. It has most of the usual suspects for a good Sloppy Joe, plus a few additional...

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb ground sirloin
1 Tbsp grapeseed oil, more if needed
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded, ribs removed, and diced
2 clove garlic, minced
3 Tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp hot sauce (i like franks)
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp mild chili powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground mustard
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
salt, kosher variety, to taste
4 oz tomato sauce
3 oz bbq sauce (i like sweet baby rays, vidalia onion flavor)
1/4 c filtered water
2 Tbsp cider vinegar
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
bread, of your choice

Steps:

  • 1. Gather your ingredients.
  • 2. Add the oil to a large sauté pan, or skillet, over medium, and heat until shimmering, but not smoking.
  • 3. Chef's Tip: I choose grapeseed oil, because it doesn't impart any additional "oil" taste, and it has a higher smoke point: 420f (216c). Compare that to olive oil with a smoke point of 320f (160c). That gives you the ability to sauté the veggies without smoking up the house... I like that.
  • 4. Add the onion, and pepper, and sauté until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • 5. Chef's Note: As the veggies are sautéing, season with a bit of salt, to taste.
  • 6. Chef's Tip: Adding the salt at this stage of the game will help the veggies release their moisture.
  • 7. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • 8. Add the tomato paste and the hot sauce to the sauté pan.
  • 9. Stir without stopping until incorporated into the veggies, about 1 minute.
  • 10. Add the ground beef to the sauté pan.
  • 11. Stir, breaking apart with a wooden spoon until the beef loses all of its pink, about 6 minutes.
  • 12. Incorporate the cumin, chili powder, paprika, mustard, and cayenne to the sauté pan. Add a bit more salt, if you feel it needs it (I usually don't think that it does).
  • 13. Stir until just combined, about 1 quick minute.
  • 14. Finally, add the BBQ sauce, tomato sauce vinegar, water, and Worcestershire.
  • 15. Chef's Note: If you want to kick up a bit more, add a bit of Sriracha sauce. BANG.
  • 16. Bring the mixture up to a light boil, and then bring down to a very light simmer.
  • 17. Cover and allow it to simmer for 30 to 45 minutes.
  • 18. Chef's Note: Every 5 minutes, uncover and stir.
  • 19. Chef's Tip: If after 30 minutes the mixture does not appear to be thickening, remove the lid and allow it to simmer uncovered for the remaining 15 minutes.
  • 20. Meanwhile, toast the bread.
  • 21. Place on a plate. If you like you could run a couple of lines of mustard down the bread, or serve it on the side.
  • 22. Chef's Note: I like to serve mine with coleslaw; however, the sandwich stands on its own. Full stop.
  • 23. Add the sloppy joe mixture to the bread.
  • 24. Serve while still nice and warm. Enjoy.
  • 25. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

This is a simple recipe with a nice little kick to them and ingredients that you usually have on hand. All the kids love these sandwiches. This is a recipe from Betty Crocker's cookbook.

AWESOME SLOPPY JOES

This is a recipe I came up with while trying to come up with a tastier version of a sloppy joe. My kids love them but I just don't like the Manwich you buy that much. This is excellent. I've even used this as chili for hot dogs and for chili burgers. Hope you enjoy.
