Ode to sloppy joe's

Serious goodness we enjoyed last night - sloppy joe's. Growing up, you might have known them as Manwich, sloppy joe's, saucey loose meat burgers...no matter the name, it was all pretty much the same. Grab some ground meat, toss it with some savory sauce, load it on a bun and enjoy! Sometimes, mustard, pickles, ketchup, hot peppers, cheese would also become toppers. My favorite way to enjoy it - in the past - was on a poppy seed bun with sweet pickles and mustard. Notice, I said, in the past. My new favorite was last night and it was a HUGE hit with the family. Making use of 3 Tastefully Simple products, an easy version of these turned out quickly and deliciously.

I browned 1.5 pounds of ground pork with about 2 Tbsp. Everyday Grillin Seasoning. I then mixed in Bacon Bacon (to taste) and Honey Apple Grill Sauce (about 1/2 to 1 cup - again, depending upon how sloppy/saucey you want the meat). I allowed the meat/sauce mixture to heat through, then served. The final outcome - with products - pictured below, followed by the recipe.

Honey Apple Sloppy Joe
1.5 pounds ground meat (personal preference, I used pork)
2 Tbsp. Everyday Grillin Seasoning (which is one black capful)
Bacon Bacon to taste
1/2 to 1 cup Honey Apple Grill Sauce
Bread or buns (optional)

Directions are above. If you choose to not serve on bread or buns, simply serving over rice or as a stand-alone with a side or two works as well!
