But you're the only one who knows what *you* like. Have you tried
Dr. Pepper Sloppy Joe's?

This is pretty much how I do them- [Except for the ground beef-- I use
all 80% beef & don't drain it]
http://www.momswhothink.com/easy-rec...oe-recipe.html

I also might add a few splashes of hot sauce [Frank's] -- and if I'm
in the mood, a cup of celery.. . . . a cup of leftover corn in the
fridge?-- toss it in. . . . . mushrooms need to be used up, chop and
saute with the meat. . . too soupy, add oatmeal. . . too stiff,
add catsup.

It isn't baking-- you can do whatever floats your boat. Go in
small increments, a bit at a time. It is going to be good. You just
tune it to your tastes.
