Barbecued Spoonburgers

"Also known as Sloppy Joes. This is from “The Unwatched Pot” cookbook. I adapted it slightly for our tastes. How awesome would this be topped with a slice of provalone cheese? Try over noodles or rice for something different. I’m betting this would freeze well too."

Tasty, Tasty! It's got enough zing - I have made this twice now and my family loves it! And it is super easy. I used red and green peppers chopped fairly small and made it exactly as written. It is fairly 'dry', not much sauce, but we liked it that way.
