Sloppy Joes

[pops6927]

Wife made sloppy joes tonight, it's from a recipe out of a church recipe collection; collated by the Epsilon Omega Sunday School class from the Honeyville Baptist Church, Honeyville, NY aka the 60's/70's era, but just as good today as it was then! The recipe was submitted by Priscilla Dixon and is as follows:

1½ tsp. shortening
1 Onion
1 Pepper

Dice onion and pepper and brown in Shortening. Add:

1 lb. Hamburg
¼ cup catsup
1 tsp. salt
¼ tsp. pepper
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1 Tbsp. sugar (or Splenda[emoji]174[/emoji])
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

Simmer until thick (about 10 min.) and serve over hamburg rolls with coleslaw and a good spoonful on top!

Had 'em tonight and they were delicious!

I remember in another post a day or so ago you said about putting coleslaw on top of sloppy Joes, I really need to try that.

Those sound so good Pops, I haven't had a Sloppy Joe in quite a while.

Yup! I cheated on the slaw; we had Popeye's on Tues., 2 pc for 99¢ and picked up a container of it for tonight's dinner - they make good slaw! Enjoy the Sloppy Joes, a quick easy meal. Now, who wants to kick it up a notch and make 'em "Smoky Joes" and stir in some smokin' in the smoker? I would but I know the wife wouldn't have the patience to wait an extra hour for dinner! If you try it, lemme know how it turns out!

I have smoked it Pops and it was great. I also add white vinegar and you know it is right when it takes your breath away.

Here is my version.

What, no cheese? In my book, you can't have any meat on a bun without cheese!

Sounds good otherwise and I'll have to try it on the smoker next chance I get.

Some of the best food i have eaten has come out of those old church cook books.
Was in an antique shop yesterday that must have had 300 cook books on a shelf. Alot of church - civic orgs. and family cook books . i could have stayed in that shop for hours looking at the books.
