Sloppy Joes (BBQ Beef)

     Whether you’re feeding a hungry family, needa quick lunch for company, or feeding a group of always hungry teenagers. . .my Sloppy Joes are the answer!  They areso fast and easy, on the table in 25 minutes or less!  Sloppy Joes from a mix or a can never entermy house.  These are just as easy and somuch better.  I’ve been making themforever.

      I love homemade not just because I knowwhat’s in them, but because I can customize it to suit different needs.  If I’m making them for little kids, I willomit the crushed red pepper.  If I wantthem a bit sweeter?  I’ll add a smidgemore sugar.  If I want a bit moretang?  I’ll add another teaspoon or twoof vinegar.  Spicier?  More crushed pepper.  You get the idea. You can add some cheeseafter you’ve scooped it on a roll if anyone would like that.  How about a slice of raw onion orlettuce?  Why not?
