Sloppy Joes

Recipe adopted from Rachael Ray

Serves: 4 super sloppy sandwiches

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon oil
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons steak seasoning blend, such as McCormick brand Montreal Seasoning (I actually had some of this in my cupboard.)
1/2 large onion, diced
1/2 med red bell pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons mustard
2 cups tomato sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
4 crusty rolls, split, toasted, and lightly buttered

Directions:
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and meat to the pan. Spread the meat around the pan and begin to break it up. Combine brown sugar and steak seasoning. Add sugar and spice mixture to the skillet and combine. When the meat has browned, add onion and red peppers to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook onions, peppers, mustard and Worcestershire sauce with meat for 5 minutes. Add tomato sauce and paste to pan. Stir to combine. Reduce heat to simmer and cook Sloppy Joe mixture 15 minutes.

Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, pile sloppy meat onto toasted, buttered bun bottoms and cover with bun tops. Have plenty of napkins on hand!
