Wet Wimpies (Sloppy Joes) - Kitchen Courses #25

Regionalisms for wet, sloppy, ground meat sandwiches are weird. It's Kitchen Courses with Kate and Eric, episode 25! As shown, this recipe serves 4. Double it to serve 8! Ingredients • 1 tbsp fat (vegetable oil, olive oil, butter or bacon fat) • 1 lb. ground beef (you could use ground turkey, chicken, or pork) • 1/2 cup chopped onions • 1 tsp salt • 1 tsp black pepper • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce • 2 tsp brown sugar • 2 tsp vinegar (preferably apple cider) • 1/2 cup chopped celery • 1/2 cup chopped green pepper • 3 cloves of finely chopped garlic • 1 tsp dried mustard • 1 tsp paprika (regular or Hungarian) • 1/2 cup chili sauce • 1 cup water For Serving • 4 hamburger buns (with the sesame seeds if you can find them) • Lots of kettle cooked chips Make It 1. Brown the beef over medium heat until you can no longer see any pink. Using a slotted spoon, remove the beef from pan. Drain off the fat from the pan and return the pan to the stove. 2. Add the fat. Add the onions, celery, and chopped pepper. Sauté 3-5 minutes until the onions start to turn translucent. Add the garlic and sauté 1-2 minutes more. 3. Add the beef back to the pan and add the remaining ingredients, minus the buns and chips. Stir to combine. 4. Simmer for approximately 30 minutes on low heat until the sauce has thickened. 5. Serve the Wet Wimpies on hamburger buns with a side of kettle chips (and have lots of napkins on standby). Enjoy!
