My kids have been begging me to make Sloppy Joes. It’s been SO long since I’ve made them, how could I say no? This time, I had something new to add to the sauce that made my family go back for seconds.

HERE’S ALL IT TAKES

1 pound of fresh, lean ground beef
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 to 3/4 cup ketchup
2 to 3 tablespoons Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce
whole wheat buns

Brown meat and season with salt and pepper. Add ketchup and all purpose sauce, then simmer over medium heat until it thickens. Toast buns in a toaster or in an oven at 300F degrees for 5 to 7 minutes.

IT’S TIME TO EAT!

Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce tastes like a steak sauce with a little kick. It totally works next to steak, basted on grilled chicken and added to pick up Sloppy Joes. It’s not so spicy that the kids noticed any heat in the Joes, they just kept on eating.

If you haven’t had a chance to try Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce go over through the link. When you sign up for their newsletter, they send you a FREE BOTTLE!

Go get your FREE BOTTLE and come back here and tell me what you think of it. I’m curious to know how many folks claim a bottle and actually try it. Aren’t you?

These were fun. I like to have the thin sliced pickles with mine. Overall I was pleased with the BBQ sauce. It’s fun to try a sauce that comes from a source other than the lonely isles of a chain super market.

Since I have never of, and therfor have never tried, Country Bobs, I will order my free bottle and give it a try.

But in its place, I have always used Worchestire sauce.

Optionally I will dice some onion to add to this to add a little more depth of flavor.

I use whole wheat buns, but with sloppy joes, I still think the best bread is the softest, most processed, most nutritionally unsound white buns (Like wonder!) Kinda sad I know.

Oh, and yeah, the pickles are a darned near MUST!!

I just came from your blog, Home of the Lazy Dog.
You’re a very good photography and I love how silly you are with your family…very cool.
