These homemade sloppy joes are made with ground beef, onion, pepper, and ketchup. A thick and rich filling makes these iconic sandwiches easy to eat.
Step1
Place ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbled, about 10 minutes.
Step2
Stir in green pepper and garlic; cook and stir until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 cup water and stir, scraping the pan to dissolve any brown flavor bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Step3
Stir in ketchup, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Add remaining 1 cup water and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid has evaporated and mixture is thick, about 40 minutes.
Step4
Season with salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper.
