Sloppy Joes


For such an iconic retro dish, the Sloppy Joe is very misunderstood. While most people assume the name comes from the sandwich's loose meat, it's actually the name of the bar in Key West, FL where it was invented.

Ingredients for 4-6 servings:

1 1/2 pound extra lean ground beef

1/2 onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 diced green or red or orange or yellow bell pepper

3/4 cup ketchup

dash of Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

2 cups water

1 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Hamburger Buns
