  • I normally follow the recipe above however last night I decided to experiment:

    2 pounds ground burger, cooked
    3 Tablespoons Onion Powder
    1 1/2 Tablespoons Garlic Powder
    2 cups tomato sauce
    1/2 cup ketchup
    1/2 tablespoon horseradish mustard
    A dash of apple cider vinegar
    1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
    A few dashes of liquid smoke
    1 teaspoon smoked paprika
    Salt and Pepper
    McCormick's Garlic and Bell Pepper Seasoning generously applied
    2 Tablespoons raw sugar
    Added enough water to make it a wee bit more sloppy.

    Mix everything together over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, serve. This had a nice mix of a slightly BBQ sweetness but classic sloppy joe tang It hit the spot.



  • New recipe was awesome.
