Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 0.75 cup ketchup

- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 0.5 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 hamburger buns, toasted (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the ground beef to the other side.
Cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula, for 6-8 minutes until fully browned. Mix it together with the vegetables.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet if necessary.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, yellow mustard, brown sugar, and beef broth. Mix well to combine.
Season with salt and black pepper, then let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and heated through.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
Serve the Sloppy Joe mixture over toasted hamburger buns, or enjoy it on its own. Garnish as desired.
