Listen, if the Joes aren’t hot and sloppy, we don’t want them! And based on how quick y’all were to trade in your prim and proper sandwiches for our spicy, gluttonous Joes, a lot of you also enjoy getting messy. We can’t blame you. 😏
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 16 oz can tomato sauce
- 2 tbsp Tabañero Extra Hot sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp yellow mustard
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 4 brioche hamburger buns, toasted
INSTRUCTIONS
- Finely chop the onion. Seed and finely chop the peppers. Set aside for later.
- In a bowl, combine the tomato sauce, Tabañero Extra Hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, brown sugar, and water. Set aside for later.
- In a large skillet, and on medium heat, saute the beef until thoroughly cooked through, breaking it up with a spatula as it's cooking. Once beef is done cooking, remove meat from the pan.
- In the same large skillet, add the olive oil along with the peppers, onion, and garlic. Lightly saute them for just a minute or two.
- Add the meat back into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine.
- Add the tomato sauce mixture to the meat and vegetables. Mix well and allow the meat and tomato sauce combination to simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes.
