Description

The perfect combinations of maple and bourbon simmer together to create a delicious take on the Sloppy Joe!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound of ground beef
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 (8 oz) cans tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup (use a good quality and not the imitation)
  • 1 shot of your favorite bourbon (we use Maker’s Mark)
  • burger buns
  • chopped red onions to garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, brown up your ground beef in a drizzle of EVOO until it’s crumbly.  Stir in a nice pinch of both salt and pepper along with your garlic powder.
  2. Next, stir in your tomato sauce, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce and maple syrup.  Bring everything up to a simmer and then stir in your bourbon.  Reduce your heat to medium and allow your Sloppy Joes to simmer together about 10 minutes.
  3. When you’re ready to eat, add a burger bun to each plate along with a scoop of Sloppy Joe mixture and then garnish with a bit of chopped red onions.
  4. You  can eat these open-faced or with a top bun like a sandwich.

Notes

We are a gluten-free house, so we sub our burger buns for ones that are g-free.  Our favorite brand is Trader Joe’s Gluten-Free Buns (when they’re available!).
