This has got to be my very favorite sloppy joe recipe. It’s so easy!
Yield: Serves 4
1 lb ground beef chuck
2 links Italian pork sausage, casing removed
1 cup finely chopped onions (2 medium)
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
3/4 cup finely chopped mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 1/3 cups marinara sauce
2/3 cup barbecue sauce
4 large burger buns, split
Heat 10-inch skillet over medium heat. In large bowl, mix together beef and pork; add to skillet. Add onions, bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic, salt and pepper; mix well. Cook, stirring frequently, until beef and pork are no longer pink and vegetables until tender.
Stir in marinara and barbecue sauces. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to medium-low to low; simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until thickened.
Serve beef-pork mixture in buns.
