I’m just beginning to cook so my recipes are pretty quick and simple. This recipe is a really simple, quick, and tasty ‘Sloppy Joe.’ This is what we are having tonight before we go to the football game. You can also let this simmer in a slow cooker after browning the ground beef if you prefer.
Recipe Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- ½ cup chopped onion
- ¼ cup chopped celery
- 7 ounces ketchup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon dry mustard powder
- ⅓ teaspoon lemon juice
- 8 white or wheat hamburger buns
Cooking Directions
- 1 Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble ground beef into skillet; add onion and celery. Cook and stir beef mixture until beef is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes.
- 2 Stir ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, mustard, and lemon juice through the beef mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook mixture at a simmer until mixture is hot and sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes.
