Just saying the name Sloppy Joe reminds me of being a kid.  And while I haven't had a Sloppy Joe Sandwich since I was a kid, when I took my first bite, it was like we had never parted ways.  It seems that whether you enjoy a Sloppy Joe as  a child surrounded by friends or as an adult with your plus one, you'll never be disappointed by this family classic. 

Sloppy Joes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 35 minutes

What you'll need
1/2 pound lean ground beef
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
7 ounces ketchup 
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 cup water
2 hamburger buns

Directions
1. Brown meat, green pepper and onion in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. 
2. Add ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and water.  Mix well.  Let simmer for at least 30 minutes. 

3. Scoop sloppy joe mixture onto a hamburger bun.  I like to serve them with baked ruffles, as the ruffles make a great dipper for any leftover sloppy joe mixture.  Enjoy!
