Manic Monday Meals ~ Battle of the Sloppy Joe's

The showdown of the Sloppy Joe's. Of course these are always a hit with the boys and my floor since they can't seem to make it all in their mouths!
Our first was a recipe I found on the Duggar Family Website.
1 lb. ground beef/turkey
1/2 c. ketchup
1/2 c. BBQ sauce
1/2 envelope dry onion soup mix
2 tsp. liquid smoke
Brown & season meat, drain. Add all other ingredients, heat
Through. Serve on buns; enjoy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And the winner of the Sloppy Joe Throwndown (Yes a Nod to Bobby Flay) is from my all time favorite blogger Heidi at Tried and True. You can see I've done tons of her recipes. As I tell her if I'm in a funk I head of do a search and there is dinner :).

1 1/2 lb. lean ground beef
1 (14.5 oz.) can diced tomatoes
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup bottled barbecue sauce
1 TBSP
Worcestershire sauce
2 TBSP chopped pickled jalapeno peppers (optional)
1 TBSP liquid from pickled jalapeno peppers (optional
1 package frozen garlic Texas
toast
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Brown ground beef in large skillet over
medium-high heat, stirring often, 8 - 10 minutes or until beef crumbles and is no longer pink; drain well. Return to skillet. Stir in tomatoes, next 3 ingredients, and, if desired, jalapeno pepper and liquid. Cover and cook 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare Texas toast according to package directions. Serve beef mixture ove
r Texas toast; sprinkle with cheese.

  4. I would think that the Duggar recipe would call for a side of beef, ground.

  9. That looks so good! I made meatloaf that was given a half thumbs up by the kids tonight. They normally hate it but I tried a different recipe and they liked it better. Not sure why they are not fans of sloppy joes or meatloaf!

  12. These both sound really good, but I think I'd agree with your assessment that the Bobby Flay recipe sounds much better - and I love Texas Toast. I'd make it without the Jalapenos, don't like it too hot. :-)
