Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ground beef
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 1 medium Green bell pepper
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 15 ounces Tomato sauce
- 0.75 cup Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
- 2 teaspoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Hamburger buns
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully browned (about 6–7 minutes). Drain the excess fat and transfer the cooked beef to your crock pot.
Finely chop the yellow onion, green bell pepper, and garlic. Add them to the crock pot with the ground beef.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Pour the mixture over the beef and vegetables in the crock pot.
Stir the contents of the crock pot to ensure everything is evenly combined.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours. Stir occasionally if possible.
Once cooked, taste and adjust seasonings if needed (additional salt, sugar, or vinegar can enhance the flavors).
Toast the hamburger buns. Spoon a generous portion of the Sloppy Joe mixture onto the bottom bun, top with the other half, and serve warm.
Optional: Serve with pickles or coleslaw on the side for added crunch and tang.
