Food Friday: Sloppy Joes or Sloppy Jacks?

What guy is not a meat lover! For any meal, especially a party, my husband asks for meat! In fact a meal at our house is not complete without meat. Therefore to complete our Super Bowl table of snacks and appetizers, we must include some meat!

One dish we like to make at our house for company is Sloppy Joes and Sloppy Jacks (a name and recipe my mom invented). This way people can have sandwiches to go with all the other sides. It is also easy to make for large amounts of company.

These recipes are easy for your husband to make and satisfies their need for meat during the football game.

Brown ground beef on the stove with chopped onion. You will need approximately one pound of ground beef for every four people. While the meat is cooking, get out two crock pots and set them up to cook.

Once the meat is done, divide it between the two crock pots evenly as one will house the Sloppy Joes and the other the Sloppy Jacks. For the Sloppy Joes, I combine my mothers and my mother-in-laws ingredients of ketchup, a little mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix to taste, so all ingredients have been stirred in well. For Sloppy Jacks, use a can of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup and a can of mushrooms, enough to mix with the amount of meat you have.

Cook in the crock pot on low for several hours before your company comes, occasionally stirring. Serve on sandwich buns. Add your other sides for a complete Super Bowl buffet!
