Default Do You Like Sloppy Joes?


I know some call them by other names, but to me ground meat in a tangy
"tomatoey" sauce served in a hamburger bun, is a sloppy joe, and always
been popular at our house.

How do you make them at home (if you do)?

Now that we're more conscious of our diet, I've been using ground
turkey, instead of beef, and makes a excellent sandwich.

A can of Manwich, some cheapo burger buns and call it a done deal.

That's what I make when I'm in the mood. do I add some ground beef? I
forget...it's been a long time.

I think it would taste better with beef. If you're trying to avoid
beef fat, just use leaner ground beef. "Besides*, do you even know
the difference between beef fat and turkey fat? I assume the answer
is no. Using ground turkey because it's cheaper, or if you happen to
like the taste better is perfectly legit. Using it because you think
that it's a lot healthful than beef is bogus. In some ways, it is
less healthful

I've always liked that, unfortunately I'm the only one in the family
who does.

I don't buy ground poultry. I suspect that they may grind in the
skin, and perhaps too much fat. etc. If you grind it yourself, and
put in the lean stuff, different story.

At least up here in Canada, in Canada way up yonder to the north,
(except for Haffner) they changed the formula for Dr. Pepper. I don't
like it as much anymore. It's kind of creamy like.

If you knew more about fat, you'd probably be less concerned about
animal fats, especially in moderation. I bought a bit less than
1-1/2# of ground sirloin, and I melted about a tablespoon of refined
(tasteless) coconut oil into the pan before browning it.. It's going
to end up as chili.

I think the skin is the best tasting part of poultry, and of pork for
that matter.

I like sloppy joes, especially during the colder weather. I prefer the
darker coloured ones though, and try to stay away from the greys.

Everytime you lot start talking about eating 'sloppy joes'.... I have to
stop the mental picture of someone chewing on a jumper :-)

I sure don't take the skin off of roast turkey. I am a tad concerned
however about what exactly goes into ground poultry here (fatwise).
And the amounts in there. I know that animal fats are made out to be
worse than they are. Like I said, even in my original post, 'too much
fat' is not something I want. The Inuit people did not have a healthy
diet in the past. Too much fat/meat??? Even all that good ole' seal
oil didn't counteract the effects of their diet. Now, their diet is
prolly less healthy if they are getting all the processed foods that
they never had before.
Having said that, Ted Nugent (the guy that wants to kill people who
wear laundry on their head) swears by venison.

I have not had a sloppy Joe for ages. They taste ok. I hate the sloppiness
of it.

How about an isaly's chipped ham sandwich with a can of pop ?

I don't know if what I do is really a SJ but I was talking about it in a
chat and a couple persons from the US told me so, let's see.
I sautee some minced white onion in EVO oil over low heat, sometimes I add
garlic, then add not-very-lean ground beef and raise the heat to medium high
for some minutes during which I brown the meat, sometimes putting some white
wine in it. After that I add a little of tomato preserve (just tomato and
salt), salt, pepper and sometimes hot pepper, switch the heat to minimum and
cover the pan. I let it go like that for about 30 minutes, during which I
sometimes stir it and add some water if it's drying up. I love to serve it
as a sandwich in ciabatta bread, but it works well on fluffy almost
hamburger-like buns. For an extra I sometimes add cheese, if it's thin and
easy to melt I put it directly in the sandwich, otherwise I put it in the
pan when I turn the heat off and let it melt there. This recipe comes from a
simple adaptation of a dish my mom cooked when I was a toddler, the only
differences are that she used to serve it in dishes and she didn't add
cheese to it, but the basics were all the ground meat, onion and some
tomato.

You can not know how right you are, also on this side of the pond: kebab
vendors here in Italy use many meats but the majority is now using poultry.
I once happend to see the cook bringing in a new skewer so I got tosee the
thing as it is: totally yellow apart from some spot here and there, and that
means *almost all skin*. Sheesh, that was the last time I entered a poultry
kebab shop for 3 good years. Then this summer I found another shop which
uses poultry and their skewers were for the most part lean meat, so I go
there now and then, other poultry kebab vendors are all marked with a "NO
NO"

Try buying local grass-fed beef instead.

Well, bugs are everywhere s that's always an option. I figure the
better choice would be the remote grass-fed beef though. ;^)

I don't find him a problem, but if you do, consult your newsreader's
instructions.

I don't much either. I have food processed skinless chicken breast
because my son prefers chicken to beef for tacos, but I don't like it
much, and the cleanup is a bear. Personally, I'd rather have 100%
chicken skin than skinless breast meat.

My newsreader hiccoughed yesterday about noon, and no new posts starting
showing up until this morning, so have missed a lot of the posts, as
they just plain are not here! (Boo! Hiss!)

My hubby isn't fond of ground, or chopped turkey, but our one daughter
has been on a diet, so now instead of using beef in tacos, or sloppy
joes, I've been using turkey, or chicken, and we really like it. He
grumbles, but I notice he still eats it and doesn't complain after!

This is what I use now for the sloppy joes and we think it's better than
any of the beef ones we've had over the years.

Turkey Sloppy Joes

1 lb. ground turkey breast
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1 can Healthy Request tomato soup
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tbsp. brown sugar
2 tbsp. prepared mustard
1/4 tsp. pepper

In a pan, coated with non-sticking cooking spray, cook turkey with
veggies until meat is no longer pink; drain, if necessary. Stir in
remaining ingredients and transfer to slow cooker, cover and cook on low
for 4 hours. Serve on buns. (I just simmer in the pan for a half hour,
or so, if I don't plan that far ahead). Serves 6. Each serving equals
247 calories, so not all that bad.

Be careful with ground turkey. It's not always the healthier choice. Read
the label. Sometimes it contains ground turkey skin which negates what
people perceive to be lower fat and healthier.
