Firebug’s Spicy Sloppy Joes
Thanks to the folks at Firebug for contributing this recipe!
1 lb. ground beef (lean is best)
1 c. vadalia onion, minced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 large red pepper, minced
1 ½ c. Firebug Grill’n Sauce-Hot
3 T. Tomato paste
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 t. salt
Fresh ground pepper
8 whole wheat burger buns
Prepare hot grill or preheat stove to medium high. Brown the meat and onion over medium-high heat for approx. 5 minutes, breaking up the meat into crumbles as it cooks. Pour the fat out of the pan and discard. Add garlic and peppers, cook another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the rest of the ingredients, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes more or until desired consistency. Place a scoopful onto each bun and serve.
Enjoy!
Tip: Use a large cast iron pan to prepare the meat & onions on a hot grill w/wood fire to achieve a delicious smoke flavor.
