This was okay; not a whole lot better than if you had doctored up a can of Manwich Bold and Spicy with a little bell peppers.

Great recipe. Didn't have any bell pepper so just went ahead without and it was delicious. Will definately make again.

This recipe was pretty good. I didn't have tomato paste so I used a can of tomato sauce and left out the water. The red peppers were really good in this. If I make it again I'll probally double the peppers they were so good.

I've tried many recipes but this is by far the best. It's great with ground beef, turkey or pork. This has been a big hit with my family and friends. I have even served it at chruch for potluck dinners. The only thing I added was a teaspoon of mustard powder. When I've been out of tomato paste, I've substituted tomato sauce and it comes out just as good. Highly recommend this recipe.

I don't think I could ever go back to the canned sloppy joe mix after making this. My mother and husband loved it! Next time I'll probaby cut down a little bit on the peppers - one was more than enough and also cut the brown sugar to two tablespoons. Delicious!!!!

Very good - better than any canned or dry mix and very easy. I cut down on the sugar by half, and also only used half the chopped vegies called for. Added a little more garlic (powder) and some red pepper flakes. Will make this often! Thank you Emily!

My family thought they were way too bland. If I make them again, I'll put more "hot spices" than it called for.

Great Recipe - very easy to make. Ground turkey worked well. I would agree that it's a little sweet - next time I will cut the brown sugar to half or less. The buns I used were on the sweet side also which may have accetentuated it. I served it with a salad with blue cheese dressing which was a nice contrast. Definately a keeper - wonderful every-day dish!

A little different in that it was more like a meal, and not at all sloppy, but it was still tasty and easy to make!

Wonderful! The overall flavor is varied and distinct because of the added spices. To make this more "sloppy" I use 3/4 cup of porter or heinekin and 3/4 cup of water. The brown sugar gives it a light sweet taste. The onions and red peppers give it excellent texture. If you like it hot, double the chili pepper or add some Aleppo pepper. I serve it over sliced Tillamook cheddar cheese on large toasted hamburger buns. I've made this numerous times and each time I love it more and more.

My one and only experience with sloppy joes was the awful canned stuff as a kid. My husband has been bugging for years for me to make them and since this recipe was without ketchup, I figured I'd try it! Excellent results! My husband and his brother ate the whole pan (with a small bite for me).Will definitely make again!

Way too much brown sugar, next time I will cut that portion in half at least. However, my 5 year old loved it. I think with some tinkering, this could be a good recipe.

I read the reviews and then tried them out. Yes, the recipe could be a little more 'sloppy' (fix that by adding more ketchup or water?), BUT still way better than the canned stuff. Add more chilli pepper if you like 'em hot (they came out pretty mild, which I personally like). Will make again because the guys who tried them loved them!

My whole family loves these! They are easy to make and healthy, too- provided you use lean beef or turkey breast. ( I always use Laura's ground round) Thanks, Emily!!!

Emily’s Famous Sloppy Joes were delicious. The onions and peppers called for in the recipe give it texture and taste while the chili powder provides spice. There was a subtle sweetness to this sloppy joe (from the brown sugar). This meal was quick and easy to prepare, but it easily managed to retain its “homemade” taste. We put them on buns and ate them two nights in a row! Yummy!
