Sloppy Joe Sliders
Sloppy Joe Sliders are an easy weeknight dinner recipe! If your family loves sloppy joes, these are the perfect 35 minute little sandwiches.
Ingredients
Sandwiches
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 Green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 Onion, chopped
- ¾ cup Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Celery seed
- 2 teaspoons Dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon Vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Sugar
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- ¼ teaspoon Pepper
- 12 Hawaiian rolls, 1 package
- 6 slices Colby Jack cheese
- 1 cup French fried onions
Glaze
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- ¼ teaspoon Onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Brown beef with onions and peppers in a large skillet. Drain well and return to skillet.
- Add ketchup, celery seed, dry mustard, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper to the skillet and stir to combine. Simmer for 15 minutes.
- While the sloppy joes are simmering, prepare the glaze by combining all the brown sugar, butter, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, sesame seeds and onion powder in a small bowl. Stir until completely combined and set aside.
- Leaving the slider rolls connected, slice the slider rolls in half through the center so the tops are separated from the bottoms, but still in one piece.
- Place the bottom half of the slider rolls in a 9×13 baking dish.
- Spread the sloppy Joe mixture on the bottom half of the rolls.
- Add a single layer of cheese and top with the French fried onions.
- Place the tops of the slider rolls on top and brush the glaze mixture evenly over the top.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and tops are golden.
Christina's Notes
- Different Meat: Try ground pork, ground chicken or ground turkey
- Add Vegetables: Sneak in extra veggies like finely chopped mushrooms or spinach for a healthier twist.
- Different Flavors: Try adding a touch of tangy BBQ sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder or even a splash of soy sauce for unique flavor combinations.
- Buns: Try serving this recipe on brioche buns.
- Short Cut: If you don't want to make the sloppy joe mixture from scratch, use a canned sloppy joe sauce like Manwich! Just add the ground beef.
