ingredients

¹⁄₃ cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 lbs lean ground sirloin
salt
pepper
2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves removed
4 sprigs fresh oregano, leaves removed
8 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed
1 cup fresh flat leaf parsley
2 garlic cloves
¹⁄₂ small onion, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
4 Portuguese rolls (slightly sweet large, rectangular sandwich rolls)

directions

Preheat oven to 250°.
Heat a large saute pan over high heat and add 1 tablespoon oil.
Add in meat and brown for 7-8 minutes; as it cooks, season with salt and pepper and the paprika; break up the meat with a spoon.
While the meat is browning, make the chimichurri; place the rosemary, oregano, thyme, and parsley leaves, garlic, onion, and vinegar in a food processor; season with salt and pepper and pulse the machine to finely chop.
With the machine running, stream in the 1/3 cup of oil.
Combine the Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and tomato sauce in a small bowl; pour the sauce over the meat in the skillet and stir.
Bring to a bubble; stir in half the chimichurri sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.
Wrap the rolls in foil and heat in the oven for 3-4 minutes; split the rolls open and slather the tops with the remaining chimichurri sauce; pile the meat onto the bun bottoms and serve.
Pour a nice glass of Malbec to complement the Joes and you'll be tangoing in no time.
