Suck It Trebek!
I hit reviews to see what everyone thought and couldn’t get out of the app or Sloppy Joe’s reviews. This is my last resort to hit Submit and see if my phone is corrupted. Thanks Rachel Ray! I copied one of your recipes and going to make it tomorrow for the family…. I’m only giving this recipe a 5 Star because I’m locked in the App???
This is my go-to recipe for delicious sloppy joes! The depth of smokiness from the cumin makes for such an earthy, unexpected smoky layer of flavor that totally elevates it from your standard sloppy joe fare…but still totally recognizable as a ‘sloppy joe!’ If need be, you can cut back somewhat on the cumin, if you’re not a fan. You definitely need some of it in there, though. All in all, just a great super-easy recipe. And the longer you let it simmer on low, the better the sauce becomes. I sometimes add chopped green bell pepper. My husband likes it with jalapeno peppers. You could even add chopped carrots and/or celery. It is a fun recipe to play around with, as long as you keep the basic flavor profile in there. But even making it just as the recipe states with no deletions or subtractions, I highly recommend this recipe. The flavor achieved by so few ingredients is off the charts!
I have made this recipe many times and it is always a hit !!
I loved it!!! Brought me right back to my childhood❤❤❤❤
This was really good! Fast and easy. Next time I might cut the brown sugar in half but my husband loved it with the full amount.
Simple and yummy!
Very good and easy.
This recipe is better than any sloppy joes I ever had my school cafeteria! Very good. I like the balance of sweet and tart from the ketchup, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Tastes best when allowed to slow simmer for a long time.
All 6 of us loved these! Including my 2 year old and picky 8 year old! Delicious!
Very easy and fast to make. Really yummy!
