The best sloppy joe's

IMG_6032

Are you a BBQ sauce junkie? I am. Some of the best BBQ sauce I've ever had in my life. I've made 1001 uses for it. The best part? It's all ingredients you can understand and are familiar with. And has real maple syrup in it! Maple syrup is one of the best ingredients for chili's, BBQ sauce, glazes for grilling, etc....
When I find a really good product, I can't help but tell all. I'll even make sure to tell people in the grocery store.
They did not pay me to do this post (I mean I wish they would in cases of BBQ sauce for me and my fans--I would gladly take that). But this post is all my own opinion. You need to try this if you are a BBQ sauce junkie like me.
Next time you go to whole foods, look for this special sauce. It's amazing on grilled chicken, steak, and even tofu. And I have used this on salads too. Amazing.

Note: found this BBQ sauce at whole foods and am in love with it.
It’s very tangy, sweet and not too salty. Has a list of ingredients that you can understand; very versatile with almost any dish.
You can use chicken or even grilled tofu works really well in this dish. Feel free to use any veggies you desire.

1 lb of meat (hamburg, chicken or tofu chunks), cooked/fried/baked/etc.
3 or more bell peppers, sautéed
1 large onion, sautéed
½ bottle (or more) of the Butternut mountain BBQ sauce
Toasted onion buns

Fry up or grill up the meat of your choice; sauté the veggies. Then mix all together in a pot with the sauce; heat up and serve over toasted buns.
Leftovers are amazing on salads!

  2. Love the bell peppers in there--I haven't made sloppy joe's in awhile...last year I made a version that has pistachios and raisins in it that was fabulous. I'm all about adding some creativity in there so I'll have to try this! :)

  6. I love BBQ sauce, my favorite being homemade, followed by the one they sell at Trader Joe's for when I don't have time to make it from scratch. The sloppy joes look delicious. I haven't had one in years. I guess I am long overdue.

  7. I love love love sauces and condiments. I like a little food with my sauce, ya know? :)

    And sweet-ish savory sauces, like this with maple syrup are soooo me!

    Two random facts...I love Manwich. I grew up on the stuff and it's like saying I love twinkies, I'll admit it. But the other random fact is that it's vegan (til you add meat to it, of course) but I could just go to town on sloppy joe sauce. lol

  11. I grew up eating these - the lousy 70's version though. The sauce looks great too. How can you go wrong with a sauce made out of maple syrup.
