Ingredients for Old-School Sloppy Joes

HANDY!

They don’t call them sloppy for nothing. If these weren’t so delicious, we might actually complain about how messy they are. Since the ingredients you’ll need to make them are all readily available, there’s only one thing you better add to your shopping list: napkins, and lots of them!

ON HAND

Doling out sloppy joes is easy enough, all you need is some sort of bread. Whether you serve them on sliced bread, giant soft hamburger buns or tiny slider rolls, just make sure you have enough bread – and napkins – to feed your crew. In case you missed my previous comment, they sure are messy, which is just the way we like ‘em!

We love the simplicity of this favourite relaxed meal and suggest you keep any side dishes easy too. We like them best with our CREAMY COLESLAW, this very tasty WARM BEAN SALAD and our classic CLASSIC POTATO SALAD.

OLD-SCHOOL SLOPPY JOES are good and messy, as they should be!
