The Sloppy Joe filling:
- 1 pound ground turkey (or your favorite protein)
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons mustard (yellow or Dijon)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For serving:
- 9 Hawaiian rolls (pre-cut slider buns) or 12 pull apart Hawaiian rolls
- Sliced cheese (optional)
- Pickles (optional)
Instructions:
- Brown the ground turkey:
In a large skillet or frying pan, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until it’s browned and cooked through. Break up the beef into small pieces as it cooks to achieve a crumbly texture. - Create flavorful sauce:
Add ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Stir everything together thoroughly, ensuring the sauce is mixed in well with the meat. - Simmer and thicken:
Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and let the mixture cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow the flavors to meld together, and the sauce will thicken slightly. - Taste and adjust:
Give your Sloppy Joe filling a taste test. Adjust the seasoning according to your preferences by adding more salt or pepper, if needed. - Assemble and serve:
Spoon the Sloppy Joe filling onto the bottom halves of the buns then place the top halves of the buns on the sandwiches. Enjoy your homemade Sloppy Joes!
