Let’s just say that sloppy joes aren’t just kid-friendly. They are 100% a family-favorite for EVERYONE including all grown-ups. I mean, saucy, tender ground beef goodness with a hint of sweetness served on toasted brioche buns? Yes, sign me up! You can of course swap out the beef for turkey or pork, and you can use any buns you desire – hamburger buns, pretzel buns, hot dog buns. You name it. I also like to serve mine with some pickles but you can keep them as is. It’s all good here.

Preparation
1. Heat vegetable oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; drain excess fat.
2. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Stir in tomato paste, garlic, paprika, chili powder and cayenne pepper until fragrant, about 1 minute.
4. Stir in beef stock, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
5. Stir in ketchup, Dijon, Worcestershire and brown sugar; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened and flavors have blended, about 15-20 minutes.
6. Serve immediately.
