the sloppier Joes are the better tasting they are

You want a great Sloppy Joe? Then you must make Rachael Ray's Super Sloppy Joe
                                                          even if you have to adapt it just a little
                                                                                    
 
there is one thing Rachael does that I haven't seen done before
 oh boy does it take these Sloppy Joes to awesomeness
 
 
mix  brown sugar with the Montreal Steak seasoning
set aside for just a second we're getting to the good part
 
 
spread the ground beef in the preheated skillet
 pour the brown sugar mixture over the meat and continue to cook
 
 
all that brown sugar and seasoning caramelizes on the ground beef
making it the most awesome Sloppy Joes, 
thank you Rachael for this method of Sloppy Joe cooking!
 
when the meat is brown
add onions & peppers, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce 
 
 
add tomato sauce & paste
or
use spaghetti sauce it works just as awesome
and I didn't have to open a can of tomato paste 

 
simmer 5 minutes
put American cheese on squishy white rolls
 
 
scoop onto squishy soft white rolls
we were raised on squishy white rolls
 
 
Enjoy!!!
 
Sloppy Joes

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
1 1/4 pounds ground beef sirloin
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons to 1 tablespoon McCormick brand Montreal Seasoning

1 medium onion, about 1/2 cup chopped
1 small red bell pepper, 1/2 cup chopped
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups spaghetti sauce -I was out of tomato sauce

American cheese- optional
4 hamburger rolls, split, toasted, and lightly buttered or straight up squishy white rolls
Three Bakers makes a great Gluten Free white roll that soaks up all the juices
or
Make my Sour Cream Biscuits

Directions

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and meat to the pan. Spread the meat around the pan and begin to break it up. Combine brown sugar and steak seasoning. Add sugar and spice mixture to the skillet, stirring, continue cooking. When the meat has browned, add onion and red peppers to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook onions, peppers, red wine vinegar and Worcestershire sauce with meat for 5 minutes. Add tomato sauce and paste to pan, or if spaghettis sauce is what you have go for it. Stir to combine, reduce heat to simmer Sloppy Joe mixture 5 minutes longer. Using a large spoon, pile sloppy meat onto scoop onto squishy soft white bread or toasted, buttered bun bottoms and cover with bun tops.


Rachael Ray used:
2 cups tomato sauce & 2 tablespoons tomato paste 
but I was out of tomato sauce so I used
2 cups spaghetti sauce and didn't open a can of paste for just 2 tablespoons

How often after a cook out do you have extra ground beef, extra rolls and you just don't want another burger!!
