Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Ketchup
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Yellow mustard
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper

Directions
Step 1
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it into small pieces, until browned and fully cooked.
Step 2
Drain any excess grease from the skillet and return the cooked ground beef to the pan.
Step 3
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
Step 4
In a small mixing bowl, combine ketchup, brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Step 5
Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and onion in the skillet. Stir thoroughly to coat everything evenly.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 7
Toast the hamburger buns lightly in a toaster or on a skillet, if desired.
Step 8
Spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto the bottom halves of the buns, then add the top halves to create sandwiches.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your Linda's Simple Sloppy Joes!
