How to doctor up Manwhich?
Ok, I probably spelled Manwhich wrong, but anyway, what would be good
to add to it besides hamburger? I am in the mood for some easy sloppy joes over yellow egg buns and some chips! Is there a better brand than Hunt's Manwhich? Thanks, Mark |

Can you match your description with some spices you're familiar with? "Doctor up" could include the addition of strawberry yogurt, but that's probably not the direction you're headed in. |

It is not much more than trivial to make something that will taste 100x better. |

Last time I used this sauce, I added a finely chopped clove or two. Plus some chipotle powder; I *love* chipotle powder.

Sriracha to taste; Huy Fong brand is my preference.
I put this on nearly everything but ice cream. Although... |

Possibly those canned french fried onions too. > > How about crushed nacho chips? :-) Insipid product (manwitch?) IMO, but i have become addicted to fennel seeds cooked with beef. Certainly could not hurt the aforementioned product. A bit of cumin would probly be nice as an alternative. But if i wanted something like that i would take a can of generic crushed tomatoes and 'doctor it up' with chopped green peppers, onion, garlic, caraway, fennel, cumin, celery etc. add the cooked ground beef in appropriate proportions let simmer for a bit and serve. When i make burgers i use the food processor to chop onions and add them and fennel seeds and garlic to the ground beef and cook the beef patties for burgers. --- JL |

Hey, that's not kosher! For the OP: To spice up Manwhich without too much extra hassle, I would probably add some sort of vegetation in the presentation (chopped onion, shredded lettuce, sliced avocado) and treat it as a sort of sloppy-joe-taco.

That's what I do, too. I also add mushrooms and mustard plus some kind of hamburger relish. Katherine |

I am in the mood for some easy sloppy > joes over yellow egg buns and some chips! Is there a better brand than > Hunt's Manwhich? I'm with Wayne here. If you are going to take the time to add ingredients, just skip the Manwich. In my bachelor days, I was astounded to see my roomate cook spaghetti from a box mix. It had dry pasta, a can of sauce and a little packet of grated cheese. That wasn't so amazing, but he added all these other ingredients to it. He could have skipped the box mix entirely, and saved some money. Brown a pound of hamburger. Add chopped onions at the end of the browning. Chopped green pepper or celery would be good, if you like them. Add a can (8 oz) of tomato sauce, plus a teaspoon or two of chili powder. Cook until it is the consistency you want. Serve over toasted buns. I like to sprinkle my serving liberally with hot pepper sauce (Tabasco or such). |

Otherwise it won't taste anything like the stuff in the can. I'd probably use onions, bell pepper, tomato *paste*, celery salt, a pinch of brown sugar, and a bunch of W'shire sauce. -Bob |

I've tried several recipes in the past, trying to achieve the flavor of the Sloppy Joes my mom used to make. I think she used the McCormick seasoning powder in the envelope; I'd like that flavor, but without using the envelope. Most of the recipes I tried were too sweet-and-sour or too barbeque-saucey for me. I also like that chipotle powder idea...when in doubt, throw in a little chipotle!! Chris |

Seriously ... add a little cinnamon. I can taste it in the Manwich. Carol, who's making Manwiches for dinner tomorrow. |
