Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Tomato sauce
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Mustard
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Hamburger buns
Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Step 3
Add the diced onion and green bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
Step 4
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and mix in the tomato sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 6
Simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 7
Toast the hamburger buns if desired, then spoon the sloppy joe mixture evenly onto the bottom halves of the buns.
Step 8
Top with the other half of the buns and serve warm. Enjoy!
