Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 1 medium, diced green bell pepper
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup water
- 6 whole hamburger buns
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until it is browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess grease from the pan.
Step 2
Lower the heat to medium and add the diced yellow onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.
Step 3
Stir in the ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, brown sugar, chili powder, salt, black pepper, and water. Mix well to combine all the ingredients into a cohesive sauce.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the beef evenly.
Step 5
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt or pepper if desired.
Step 6
Toast the hamburger buns lightly, if preferred, and spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto the bottom halves of each bun. Top with the remaining halves of the buns and serve immediately.
Step 7
Enjoy your homemade Sloppy Joes with a side of coleslaw, chips, or any preferred accompaniment!
