Ok. This was great. And boy, did I not do it right. I was CERTAIN I had chili sauce to use in place of the ketchup. WRONG-O! I had cocktail sauce. I put it in anyway. Delish! The curry powder adds another dimension. I used 1 whole tsp. Served it over garlic bread that I get from a local watering hole here on my island.

I hate sloppy joes as well, but I had to try this one. I'm glad I did I love it! so does the rest of my family. I have made this several times now, serve with lettuce tomato and slices of dill pickle and with KittenCal's Fabulous Burger Buns recipe # 117281 This one is a keeper. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!!

This was good. And to me, better than the canned sloppy joe mix. Easy and quick to throw together. Glad to have found this recipe.

My family really liked these, with the curry added, it surprised me how good it made it. Thank you.
