EIEIO, I want a Sloppy Joe!

Sloppy Joe with Wedge Cut Fries and a Beer-Photographed on Hasselblad H3D2-39mb Camera

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds ground sirloin, browned & drained

Mix in a bowl:  

• 1/2 cup BBQ Sauce
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1 T relish
• 1 mustard squirt
• 1 T brown sugar
• 1 t salt, more to taste

Let simmer for 1/2 hour or so.

This recipe from my friend Cathi originally called for 1 pound of ground beef, but I ended up adding another pound, and it was perfect.  Depending on how sloppy you want your Joe’s – add or subtract as much ground beef (or sirloin) as you’d like!!   The first time I made these was while I was having a new front door installed.  I fixed a plate for the gentleman installing the door, and he not only said it was the best sloppy Joe he’d ever eaten – he asked me for the recipe.  So Cathi’s Sloppy Joe’s are a hit!
