Sloppy Joes

It seems people are always looking for a great Sloppy Joe recipe.  Well, this is one of the best.  This is the way my mom always made them, and they seem to have just the right combination of ingredients.   

 

 

2 pounds of ground meat
1 large onion, diced
1 large green pepper
1/2 large bottle ketchup
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 package hamburger buns

 

 

Brown ground meat and onion in large skillet
While meat is cooking, dice the green pepper.
Add to the browned meat mixture.
Now add the ketchup, sugar, mustard
salt and vinegar.  Add enough ketchup to coat all the meat.
Reduce the heat to low and let simmer for about 1/2 hour.
Make sure you stir occasionally to avoid sticking to pan.
 

 

Place on hamburger buns.
These are great served with potato chips.
