Sloppy Joes
"I can remember my mom making us these for years. Then the stuff in the can came out and that was the rage - until we tried it. We begged her to never, ever buy that stuff again! Nothing fancy about this recipe - common ingredients found in just about every kitchen. *Warning: You may need a bib! ;)"

I have been looking for an easy sloppy joe that would take me back to my childhood, therefore I have tried nearly every single recipe on ZAAR. Well guess what? This is a grandslam. Thank you for posting. I will be making this over and over and hopefully passing it down to my grandkids. By the way, not that it matters but I am a cindyj too..:):):)

Missouri born and bred. Raised in a family of awesome cooks and bakers! I love to cook, bake breads, pies. Nothing makes me happier than to hear someone moan or sigh with delight while eating something I've made.
