Sloppy Joes
An American classic, extra sloppy for ya! But there are two key tweaks here on the typical Sloppy Joe. First of all, this recipe is dead-simple. And that makes good sense because if it takes you more than 10 minutes to make Sloppy Joes you're kinda missing the point. And second, I use about half the typical amount of ketchup. Nothing against ketchup, it's just not much of a meal.

4
Peel garlic cloves and chop or grate to a fine paste.
5
Cook the ground beef until browned through in a heavy skillet. A little oil to start will help avoid sticking.
6
Stir in the crushed garlic.
7
Stir in the ketchup.
8
Stir in the worcestershire sauce.
9
Add a dash of your favorite hot sauce, if you like.
10
Add a little salt and pepper to taste. Feel free to add a little more ketchup if you must.

Assemble as you see fit. I like a simple sloppy joe on a fluffy bun with a little spread of mayonnaise. Of course, that's not for everyone. Mix it up however you like. A little shredded cheese maybe, lettuce and tomatoes perhaps?
