SLOPPY JOES FOR A CROWD



Sloppy Joes for a Crowd image

This is a simple and easy recipe for making Sloppy Joes for 24 or more people. Yes, I know, what kind of good Sloppy Joe recipe uses Manwich®? In this case it's used as a base (like ketchup) to make a really tasty dish. I used the best ideas of several Sloppy Joe recipes on the Allrecipes website, added my own twist, and expanded it for a crowd.

SLOPPY JOES TO FEED A CROWD

This is a sweet tomatoey tasting sloppy joe. The recipe came from the USDA's recipe book for the Child and Adult Care Food Program. I have been using it for my daycare for a while now. Sometimes I add very tiny chopped peppers and carrots. Small enough that the kids don't know they are there.

THE BEST SLOPPY JOES



The Best Sloppy Joes image

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.

Yield 4 to 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced

Pinch of cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

These are really great! I have made them several times and frozen them in quart-sized bags. If you are making them for a group you can keep them warm in a large crock pot. Makes enough for 100 sandwiches. The original source is from Taste of Home Annual Recipes 1994.
