Homemade Flavor That Can’t Be Beaten!

I get it, canned often means convenient! But you also lose out on tons of fresh, mouthwatering flavor by skipping out on homemade.

This Texas Toast Sloppy Joe Recipe makes it easy to add flavor by using ingredients you likely already have. The savory flavor is brought to the recipe with garlic powder, Dijon mustard, and tomato paste.

While Worcestershire sauce and apple cider vinegar lend a taste of zing. All of this flavor is then balanced out with a little sweetness thanks to your favorite honey barbecue sauce!

How To Make Texas Toast Sloppy Joes

1. Cook the ground beef, onions, and green pepper in a large skillet. Afterwards, drain the excess liquid from the pan.
2. Stir the ketchup, tomato paste, barbecue sauce, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, and spices into the cooked ground beef. Simmer this sloppy joe sauce on low until it has thickened.
3. Bake the Texas Toast in the oven as the sauce is simmering.
4. Top the baked toast with the sloppy joe mixture and top with mozzarella cheese. Lastly, broil the Texas Toast Sloppy Joes in the oven until the cheese has melted and begins to turn brown.
5. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Storage Instructions For Texas Toast Sloppy Joes

I’d recommend only storing leftover Sloppy Joe mixture that hasn’t been used on Texas Toast. Completed leftover Texas Toast Sloppy Joes will turn soggy within a day.

Leftover Sloppy Joe mixture can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
