Homemade Sloppy Joes

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce, pickle juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir to combine and set aside.

Step 2

Preheat a large skillet or saute pan over medium heat on the stove top with the olive oil.

Step 3

Once the oil and pan are heated, add in the diced onions and cook, stirring occasionally for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften. Add in the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute.

Step 4

Add ground beef to the onions and garlic and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat, until it is cooked through and no longer pink, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the sloppy joe sauce to the ground beef mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened and heated through.

Step 6

Serve sloppy joe mix warm on hamburger buns.
