Preparation

Step 1

makes 4 sandwiches

In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon from pan and set aside. Add the ground beef to the pan and brown over medium high heat. Add bacon, onion, jalapeno, garlic, and spices to the ground beef. Cook until the onion is softened, approximately 5 minutes.

Combine tomato sauce, broth, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce, vinegar and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Pour over the beef mixture and simmer until the liquid reduces slightly, about 5 minutes.

Spoon beef mixture onto hamburger buns or rolls, and garnish if desired.

Thanks, Nicole. We liked this version, too. I’ll definitely make this again–it was a fun change for something a little different!

I think Fritos make everything better, don’t you??

I have not had a sloppy joe in ages. This makes me want one. Sounds yummy.

Um bacon added to a sloppy joe!! Genius… sounds amazing

Thanks, Elizabeth. You can’t go wrong adding bacon to anything!
