Drain excess fat. In a bowl, mix all the other ingredients together. Pour sauce over the cooked ground beef. Simmer for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust seasonings. (I typically add about a tsp more of apple cider vinegar at this point to add a little more tang.) *You can add a sprinkle of crushed red pepper if you like and or chopped bell pepper. 👉 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more home-style recipes! #SloppyJoes #EasyDinner #TheGingerOptimist #FamilyMeals #homemadegoodness Equipment I frequently use: Presto Electric Skillet https://amzn.to/4jcxbfQ Instant Vortex Pro Air Fryer https://amzn.to/40ZR2IE Ninja Blender, Compact Kitchen System https://amzn.to/4hDONAW Power Smokeless Grill https://amzn.to/40kCmCw The 8 quart instant pot https://amzn.to/3Cmnn2U Ninja Air Fryer https://amzn.to/3C9GhtX You can find my Ninja here: https://amzn.to/3Wofxg8 Hamilton Beach Bread Machine https://amzn.to/3C2NYSN -------DISCLAIMER------- Amazon affiliate links have the potential to earn me a small commission which is what helps to keep the channel running and helps me have the opportunity to continue making videos such as this one.
