This top-rated recipe for homemade sloppy joes will instantly take you back to your childhood. The classic ground beef recipe comes together in one pan with bell pepper, onion, and a salty-sweet "sloppy" sauce that’s way better than the canned stuff. It’s a cheap way to feed a crowd (or your family), and it’s versatile enough for lunch or dinner. The best part? If you load extra meat into the bun, you can enjoy the bits that fall out of your sandwich as a dip with salty potato chips – it’s almost like a sweet-and-salty nacho. This nostalgic sandwich is a comforting classic that’s famously easy to make and more delicious than it usually gets credit for.
