Burger Barbecue Aka Sloppy Joes

Submitted by ncshagger

"This is a great sloppy joe recipe. I believe my grandmother gave the recipe to my mother and of course, I now make it. So much better than anything that comes out of a can and really easy--depending on chopping skills, prep time could be more or less"

These are very good. My family all like them. I followed the recipe exactly except our green pepper was rotten. I made this for my husbands birthday breakfast. Thank your for a great recipe. Made for PAC Fall 2007

A winner-Very good! I did make a couple of small changes; I used a small can of tomato paste with some added water in place of the sauce and I had to have some fresh garlic. Very easy to prepare and it smelled delightful. I think this would do well over noodles, also would be wonderful as marinated patties. Next time I make this I will increase the recipe so I can freeze some and have it on hand. Thanks for a great recipe ncshagger! Made for PAC Fall 2007.
