Tonya's Terrific Sloppy Joes
Description
This recipe is a really simple, quick, and tasty Sloppy Joe. I make this on the stovetop, but you can also let this simmer in a slow cooker after browning the ground beef, if you prefer.
Ingredients
•
2 pounds ground beef
•
1/2 cup chopped onion
•
1/4 cup chopped celery

7 ounces ketchup

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
•
1 teaspoon vinegar
•
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard powder
•
1/8 teaspoon lemon juice
•
8 white or wheat hamburger buns
Directions
1
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble ground beef into skillet; add onion and celery. Cook and stir beef mixture until beef is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes.

Stir ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, mustard, and lemon juice through the beef mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook mixture at a simmer until mixture is hot and sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes.
