Beef Sloppy Joes
with Red Cabbage-Apple Slaw
Consisting of stewed ground meat tucked into a pillowy bun, the Sloppy Joe is a time-tested family favourite. You really can’t go wrong with this quintessential American treat, but we know we got it just right with our perfectly seasoned ground beef, bell pepper and shallot filling. We’re layering that into fresh classic buns and topping it with dill pickles and a crunchy and colourful red cabbage and green apple slaw. Things are about to get messy, but we wouldn’t have it any other way!

Preparation

Mise en place
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Core the bell pepper; small dice. Peel and mince the shallot. Mince the garlic. Slice the pickles into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Core the apple and cut into thin matchsticks.

Make the slaw
In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, apple, ½ the shallot and ¾ of the vinegar; drizzle with olive oil and season with S&P to taste. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the next steps.

Brown the beef
While the slaw is marinating, in a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the ground beef and spice blend; season with S&P. Cook, frequently breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 4 to 6 minutes, until lightly browned.

Make the filling
Add the bell pepper, garlic and remaining shallot to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes or until softened and fragrant. Add the Worcestershire sauce, canned tomatoes, remaining vinegar and ¾ cup of water. Let simmer, stirring occasionally, 12 to 14 minutes until slightly thickened and the beef is cooked through; season with S&P to taste.

Toast the buns
While the filling cooks, place the buns on a sheet pan, cut sides up. Toast in the oven, 3 to 5 minutes, until warmed through and slightly crispy. Remove from the oven and carefully transfer to a clean, dry work surface.

Assemble the sandwiches & serve
Divide the filling between the toasted buns. Top with the pickle rounds and some slaw. Divide the sandwiches and remaining slaw between your plates. Bon appétit!
Health Canada recommends cooking ground beef to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
