Sloppy Joe Rolls

Sloppy Joe Rolls are crispy on the outside. The best version of a childhood favorite.

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs pound ground beef (or turkey)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper diced
  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 8 ounces tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper optional
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese optional
  • 6-8 Rolls unsliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper, until well combined. Set aside.
  3. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, onions, and peppers and cook until no longer pink, breaking apart, and stirring as the meat cooks. Drain fat, then return to the heat add garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes. Pour sauce over browned meat, stir, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  4. While sauce is simmering, cut your rolls in half and with a knife hollow out the inside. Once the rolls are hollow, then gently pack the saucy mixture into the rolls.
  5. Bake the rolls on a baking sheet for 15 minutes or until just lightly crispy on the outside.
  6. **Optional For a cheesy surprise at the bottom put about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese into the bottom of the roll then spoon the meat mixture in.

Notes

Depending on the size of your rolls will depend on exactly how many you get. I buy rolls that are 8 inches.

You can also just use regular hamburger buns if desired.

    So each bun makes two SJ rolls?

  2. Carolyn says

    Trish. I totally agree with the garlic butter

  3. Wendie says

    Ohhh Trish I like your way of thinking 🙂

  4. Trish Nally says

    I’m thinking it might be good to brush garlic butter over the rolls after they come out of the oven!

  5. Wendie says

    Thank you Ginger! Yes, I think both cabbage leaves or low carb flatbread would be a great substitute for the rolls 🙂

  6. Ginger Wroot says

    These look so amazing, that I immediately pinned! I’m actually on a keto diet now, but your awesome photos have inspired me to try a low carb version of this recipe, maybe substituting cabbage leaves or low carb flatbread for the bread rolls. Loving your blog, my dear, and thanks! –G

    I hope you love them as much as my family does Desteny. Let me know what you think.

  8. Desteny says

    What an awesome idea! My husband and I were just recently talking about coming up with some way to make sloppy joes not so sloppy! Definitely going to have to try this!

    Thanks for sharing, Wendie!

    Hi Andrea, Yes unsliced sandwich rolls which I cut in half and hollow out the bread and then fill with the meat mixture.

  10. Andrea says

    What kind of rolls do you use? Are they an unsliced bakery bun? Thank you!

  11. Kathy Peck says

    Love this idea and taste great! It’s a quick meal for lunch or dinner. I like that I can make them and freeze them for later. 🙂
