I know there’s a million different sloppy Joe recipes out there, so why bother putting this one out there? Well, it’s the one I grew up with, it’s really REALLY simple, and everyone always asks for the recipe after they’ve had it—that’s why! It’s a great farming meal and easily doubles and triples for larger crowds and potlucks.
Simple Sloppy Joes
- 1 lb ground beef

Brown ground beef and drain off fat. Add in tomato soup, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard and salt & pepper; heat through. Simple as that!
I grew up eating them on buttered buns, open-faced. Add some cheese or hot sauce or pickles or whatever else you please with them!
