SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• Start by browning the ground beef in a large pot over medium-high heat. Drain off the fat.
• Add in the green peppers and onions. Stir, and then add 1 cup water, the ketchup and garlic. Stir it around to combine, and then add the brown sugar, chili powder, dry mustard, red pepper flakes, and hot sauce, Worcestershire, salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine, and then cover and simmer over medium-low heat, about 20 minutes.
• To serve, spread the rolls with the butter and brown them on a griddle or in a skillet. Spoon a good amount of the meat mixture onto the bottom roll, and then top with the other half. Serve with chips, salad or just enjoy it by itself.

SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the peppers, garlic and marjoram and continue to cook until the peppers are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the meat, increase the heat to medium-high and cook, breaking the meat up, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
• Spoon off any excess fat from the pan and discard. Add the tomato sauce, sugar, Worcestershire, mustard, vinegar and 1/2 cup of water and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the flavors have blended and the sauce has thickened slightly, 15 to 20 minutes. (If the mixture appears to be too dry add up to 1/4 cup additional water.) Season with the salt and pepper.
• Serve the beef mixture on toasted hamburger buns topped with shredded Cheddar and pickle chips.
