This was the best sloppy joe I have ever had!! I didn't use chorizo though, I used a chicken and mozzerella sausage because it was less fattening and I substituted the ground pork for lean ground turkey. It tasted wonderful and what really makes this dish is the chopped dill pickle on the sandwich, don't leave that out!! Thanks for sharing this recipe..
