Scott Elleys Sloppy Joes Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and brown, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off all but a couple tablespoons of the fat.
• Add the onion, chiles, garlic and tomato paste to the pot. Stir and cook for a minute to combine and cook the tomato paste slightly. Add the stock, ketchup, balsamic glaze, brown sugar, chili powder and mustard. Season with another pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine, cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 10 to 12 minutes to deepen the flavor.
• Meanwhile, bake the garlic bread according to the package instructions on a sheet pan lined with foil. Remove from the oven then preheat the broiler.
• Taste the meat mixture and adjust seasoning as needed. Divide the meat mixture over the top of the baked garlic bread. Next, top each with two slices of the provolone. Broil until the cheese has melted and browned, about 2 minutes.
• Garnish with the chopped parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.

Add the garlic, cumin and paprika and cook for another minute. Add the turkey and sprinkle it with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon or spatula, until browned all the way through. Add the tomato paste, harissa, brown sugar and tomatoes. Simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes. Stir in the preserved lemon. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired.
• To serve, stack the pitas and wrap in in foil. Heat the oven until warm, a few minutes. Cut the tops off and fill with the turkey mixture. Top with the pickles, feta and parsley.

Steps:

• Brown meat in large heavy skillet over moderate heat for 2 to 3 minutes, breaking up clumps. Add onion, mustard, worcestershire, sugar, vinegar, ketchup, salt, green pepper and celery. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring now and then, about 40 minutes until flavors mingle. Place 1/2 hamburger bun on each of four plates and ladle meat sauce generously on top. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and bell peppers and saute until softened, about 10 minutes. Add the beef, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, beans, tomato paste, vinegar, brown sugar, and some salt and pepper, and cook until slightly thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• In a saucepan over low heat combine the sauce ingredients. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix well, and simmer while preparing the meat.
• Heat a heavy nonstick or cast-iron skillet, at least 10 inches in diameter, over medium-high heat. Add the ground sirloin, and saute, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink. Turn the meat into a strainer or colander lined with paper towels, allowing the fat to drain off.
• Add the onion to the pan, and sauté, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Return the meat to the pan, and add the sauce. Heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and season with salt, pepper or more hot sauce, if desired. Spoon 1/2 cup of the mixture over each bun. Serve immediately.
