It's made with ground beef much in the way of a ragù but very sweet. A
cross between ragù and barbecue?

Chop Suey is an Asian dish created in America for non-Asian Americans, iirc.
The translation into English is "Beggar's hash," or something close.

Vilco,

I only made it with ground beef and a can of Manwich Sloppy Joe "goop."

Just don't prefix your creation with "Philly" I doubt there's a
restaurant in town that makes them.

Good luck,

I'm naming Philly everything which goes in a bun and contains meat, onion &
cheese, probably overdoing

I don't think cheese belongs on a sloppy joe. Maybve OK in a sloppy joe
casserole.

"Very sweet?" I'm glad I don't know how to make THAT kind of Sloppy
Joe. I've never had one that was sweet, at all.

And nothing like the recipe. I've never had Chop Suey in a Chinese
restaurant, but I distinctly remember it from the cans of Chung King
Chop Suey that my mother used to open for us.

Ugh anyway.

I think someone should volunteer to send that boy a package of the
dried mix. That's the one I use when I'm in a "Sloppy Joe" mood.

American Chop Suey is a New England thing. Mac 'n meat. Nothing Asian
about it. No idea where the name came from though!

In the South, we called it "goulash". (and it has nothing to do with
the Hungarian dish by the same name)

"Very sweet?" I'm glad I don't know how to make THAT kind of Sloppy
Joe. I've never had one that was sweet, at all.

N.
Compared to a good ragù it's sweet. Probably the barbecue factor. I think
most Americans don't realize how sweet many of their foods taste because
they're used to it.

You make THAT kind of Sloppy Joe by adding enough brown sugar so the
ratio to ground beef is about 1 to 4. That's assuming you made it in
true white trash style, using ketchup. If you strayed from tradition
and used tomate paste or made your own tomato sauce then increase the
brown sugar accordingly.

Pound of ground beef or turkey
fry it and break it up with 1/4 cup dried onion
put a bunch of ketchup in it with some squirts of mustard( enough to coat
the meat crumbells, and a table spoon of brown sugar and some water to
make it kind of soupy, now simmer it down to where it can be put on a
hamburger bun.



This isn't a high brow dish, but oh well. Fancy folks add a can of
campbell's chicken gumbo. Poor folks add a half cup of oatmeal. Serve
with baked shoe string fries. To cut the fat rinse the meat under hot
water for a minute in a pasta colander.

Diced bell pepper is good in a sloppy joe as well.

When I was a kid, sloppy joes were the Manwich stuff from a
can.

Now when I think of sloppy joes, it's cold cuts on rye with
cole slaw, something along those lines. Wonderful sandwiches.

I haven't had a Manwich since I was a kid, and hardly ever then.
I liked them then.

Way back then they could get away with such sexist product names, and
I bet mostly women bought Manwich.

Ragu is a good description, and the only sloppy joes I've made have
been from leftover ragu. I think I'd brown minced onions and green
bell peppers, a lot of bell pepper. I'd add and brown ground beef and
then add tomato paste and water, and a small bit of black pepper and
simmer. I like a bit of powdered bay leaf, and I would not add any
sugar, but many people would. I never put sugar in tomato sauce. You
can also add a little olive oil. The dominant flavor would definitely
be the green pepper.

I posted above. The way it ends up happening is leftover spaghetti
sauce goes on a toasted hamburger bun. My impression is that sloppy
joe means heavy on the green bell pepper. As a kid, I didn't like
them for that very reason. As a grown-up, I now love green peppers.

Yes, you use ground beef. It has been several years since I made this,
but I cooked the beef, then I added chopped onion, ketchup, a little
mustard, pickle relish. You can add brown sugar, if you like it sweeter.

As a child, back in the 60s, we used to call them "spoonburgers". My mom
made them with Heinz Chili Sauce, rather than ketchup, but the effect
was the same.

I would definitely describe your average sloppy joe, as served locally,
is awfully fricken' sweet.
One day the food service company at my son's school tried palming off
leftover sloppy joe meat for the next day's tacos and were nearly
lynched by outraged taco-loving middle-schoolers.

Sorry, I missed that. When I make them, I don't put any green pepper
in. Meat, onion, sauce and call it Sloppy Joe.

Look for a brand in a jar called "Not So Sloppy." It's much more
expensive but way better than Manwich. I make Sloppy Joes a few times
a year but make them from scratch most of the time. For the times I
don't have the time to make the real thing "Not So Sloppy" is a good
alternative.

It's interesting that the link provides the only reference to vinegar
in this thread. (unless I missed one) To me vinegar is a must.

That's what Louise thought the first time I made them for her. Now
she realizes a slice of American or Cheddar makes them much better and
holds all the slop on the bun better.

I remember being invited to a friends' house for dinner one night. She said
she was making goulash. Naturally I thought of Hungarian Goulash and my
taste buds were all set for it. Turned out to be a macaroni & hamburger
casserole. Hmmm.

Exactly! I don't consider ground beef in BBQ sauce slapped on a bun to be
sloppy joes. Might as well make pulled pork if you're going to go the BBQ
sauced sandwich route.

Your host didn't say "Hungarian Goulash" but technically you were
served a goulash, hog slop is a goulash.

gou�lash
noun
Etymology: Hungarian guly�s, short for guly�sh�s, literally,
herdsman's meat
1 : a stew made with meat (as beef), assorted vegetables, and paprika
2 : a round in bridge played with hands produced by a redistribution
of previously dealt cards
---> 3 : a mixture of heterogeneous elements : JUMBLE

This is my mom's sloppy joe recipe. I think it must have come from a
French's ad, but I'm not sure. She just had a list of ingredients. I
added more directions. Don't omit the butter. That's what really
makes it good.

The recipe says 4 servings, but it's more like 2, IMO.

Sloppy Joes
4 Servings

1 pound hamburger
1/2 cup catsup
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon French's (yellow) mustard
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper

4 hamburger buns

Break up hamburger and combine in a skillet with catsup, vinegar,
mustard,
butter, and Worcestershire. Cook over medium-low heat for about 20
minutes,
until hamburger is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to
taste. If
mixture dries out too much during cooking, add more catsup. Divide
mixture
equally and serve each portion on a warmed hamburger bun.

After following the Sloppy Joe Sandwich thread I wondered if there was a
"Sloppy Jane" sandwich.

I figured, G.I. Joe, there's probably a G.I. Jane so I googled "Sloppy Jane"
+ recipe and found plenty of links. For the 8 or so websites I visited, the
recipe is identical. Here's one with the least crud (ads, banners, etc.)...

It basically amounts to hotdogs and baked beans in a bun. No cheese.

The Ying-Yang of Sloppiness?

Ever had one?
