Sloppy Joes – Classic Sandwich Recipe

sloppy-joe-main-pic

This Sloppy Joes recipe will take you back to those “melt in your mouth” childhood days when you didn’t stop eating until your stomach hurt.  Even my wife mentioned she felt like Igor in the Disney Classic, “Ratatouille”, when his eyes lit up like light bulbs as he proceeded to drop his pen to the floor after he took his first bite.  “It’s that good”, she said.  So without further ado or more bragging, I give you another I give you Sloppy Joes!

Also, if you’re interested in other sandwich or burger recipes, I highly recommend the following.  I think you’ll find the titles are, at least, quite intriguing.  Bison Burger, Turkey Burger Sliders, Double Ground Beef Burger & Cheese Burger Pot Pie.

Cheeseburger Pot Pie

The Best Cheeseburger Pot Pie

This Cheeseburger Pot Pie sure is a fun twist on a traditional cheeseburger and a Pot Pie. Besides, who doesn’t truly love a puff pastry or pie crust cooked to perfection.  Personally, I think combining these two recipes is Genius.  But don’t just take my word for it.  Originally, I saw this idea posted on Instagram and I decided that I needed to try it for my self and I suggest that you do the same.

Make a Crispy Cheeseburger Pot Pie

As you’ve probably already guessed, the only difference between a regular burger and this Cheeseburger Pot Pie is that it isn’t made with a bun, it is baked with a Pastry.  So, you should treat it as such.

The one thing I learned, after I filmed the video, was that I should have baked the bottom crust first, for approximately 10 minutes, before I added the other ingredients and baked them altogether, as instructed.  This ensures that the entire pot pie turns out crispy and it makes a much more pleasant experience eating it like a hamburger.

Cheese Burger Pot Pie Ingredients:

2 Puff Pastry Sheets 12″ X 12″
1 lbs Ground Beef
1 egg for egg wash
1 pickle, sliced
Ketchup and Mustard, to taste
Salt and Pepper to taste

Bake the bottom crust for 10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, then add the rest of the ingredients to make the Cheeseburger Pot Pie and bake again for an additional 15 Minutes.

Bison Burger – French Onion Style Recipe

The Best Bison Burger

This Bison Burger is Awesome and the benefits are great.  The meat is very lean and it’s low in Cholesterol, so you’re going to get a solid patty that just screams perfection if you follow my directions.  And just in case you missed the title, this is a French Onion style Bison Burger.  That doesn’t mean we’re going to slam this burger with Funyuns or those french onions you normally top your green bean casserole with, no.  This is more like a French Onion Soup Burger, if you can imagine that.  So, as you’ll see in the video below, I go through all of the steps of preparing and caramelizing the onions in a soup fashion so we can top off this patty with perfection.

Why Bison Burger?

As I mentioned before, there are healthier benefits to eating a Bison burger.  But, the truth is, I just didn’t want to post a plain burger recipe.  A friend of mine, actually, gave me the idea to make a French Onion style hamburger and so I decided to go with Bison.  I ate a French Dip Sandwich that was made with Slim Slices of Roast Bison and it was delicious.  So this made 100% sense to me and when I was finished, I didn’t fall short.  In fact, on a scale of 1 to 10 this hits a 12 it’s so delicious.
