Oh yeah... Sloppy Joe Sunday!

So, our youth group is hosting and serving sloppy joes after church tomorrow for lunch! It's a great fundraiser for the kids and inexpensive on all involved! Manwich has nothing on my sloppy joe! =]~

2.5 (or 3) lbs lean, lean, lean ground beef
1/2 - 1 orange pepper, chopped
1/2 - 1 sweet yellow onion, chopped
some garlic
1 1/2 c. Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce
1 can tomato sauce
1 small can tomato paste
some W sauce
some hot sauce
salt & pepper

Drizzle a wee bit of EVOO in a large skillet, add chopped onion, pepper, and however much garlic you feel like adding, I probably used about a tablespoon of minced garlic. Saute for about 5 minutes, then add ground beef and cook until brown all the way through. (Depending on your meat, you may or may not have to drain this. I use the leanest meat possible and only have to do a little tip over the sink to drain a tiny bit off.)

Then, add the tomato sauce and paste, BBQ sauce, splash some W sauce over all the meat, do the same with the hot sauce (but I wouldn't use as much of this as the W sauce! lol)Add salt and pepper... simmer for about 10 minutes until it thickens. Slap it on a roll, or a plate, or whatever your heart desires and enjoy!
