Ingredients

  • •1 lb ground beef
  • •1 medium onion, diced
  • •1/2 cup ketchup
  • •2 tbsp brown sugar
  • •1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • •1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • •1 tsp mustard powder
  • •1/2 tsp salt
  • •1/4 tsp black pepper
  • •4 hamburger buns

Directions

  1. 1Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown the ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 5 minutes.
  2. 2Add the diced onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened.
  3. 3Stir in the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. 4Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
  5. 5Toast the hamburger buns if desired, then spoon the meat mixture generously onto each bun and serve immediately.

💡 Sloppy Joe filling should reduce until thick enough to mound; watery meat sauce soaks the bun before the first bite.
