Once you learn how to make sloppy joes with this easy recipe, you can vary it lots of different ways. Try using a hot and spicy mustard or a honey mustard in place of the yellow mustard. Add chopped green and red peppers (brown with the onions and ground beef). Or vary the type of rolls you use. I like to use potato bread rolls, but Hawaiian rolls are nice, too.

Ingredients

  • 1 large onion (diced)
  • 1 pound. extra lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1-1/2 cups ketchup
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon. pepper
  • 4 sandwich-size potato rolls

Steps to Make It

  1. Gather the ingredients.

  2. Brown onion and ground beef in a skillet. Drain fat.​

  3. Add ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and pepper to meat. Simmer 10 minutes. Meanwhile toast buns.
