How Do You Make Sloppy Joes From Scratch?
Have you always thought that sloppy joes came from ground beef and a can? What exactly is sloppy joe sauce made from? Well now you can make your own sloppy joe sauce from things around the kitchen. This really comes in handy when you have ground beef about to go bad, but have nothing to do with it. Place the ground beef in a skillet, and begin to brown it. As the beef begins to sizzle, add in 1/2 cup of diced onions and salt and pepper to taste. Once the beef begins to brown, add in 1 teaspoon of flour, 3/4 cup of water, 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce and 3/4 of a cup of ketchup. Reduce the heat, and allow the sloppy joe meat to simmer for several minutes. Stirring occasionally. This should be at least 10 to 15 minutes, but is edible at the point that the ground fully cooked. Serve on buns and enjoy these made from scratch sloppy joes! Pickles and cheese are optional.
