Sloppy Jose
I know you can buy Sloppy Joe sauce in a can, but it just isn't the same as fresh and this recipe really doesn't take long at all even in my small RV kitchen. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to three days and reheat nicely in the microwave for flavorful quick meals. The following amounts are just suggestions. Adjust them to your taste preference. If you want a more traditional Sloppy Joe just omit the can of chiles.
Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1 chopped onion
1 small chopped green bell pepper
1 small can chopped green chiles
1 cup ketchup
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder or 1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
Directions
Serve on sliced rustic rolls or toasted burger buns. I like to use heavier weight hamburger buns so it does not get too soggy.
Serves: 6

Note
You may notice that some of our recipes do not contain exact measurements for all ingredients. Cooking on the road is an art more than a science. We view each recipe as only a suggestion - a starting point for your own personal creativity.
We aren't usually dealing with food chemistry in these recipes since we aren't baking with leavening, etc., so feel free to use as much or as little of any suggested ingredient. Be creative and imaginative! Substitute the foods you like or have available for the ones in the recipes. And if you find something that turns out well for you, please share it with the rest of us.
