Mine's still cooking, but it smells -- funky. We'll see.... NOPE. May have improved slightly as it cooked, but it's just not good. I went with only 2T soy and added a bit of prepared mustard. Didn't help. 2 stars for being easy, but - wouldn't try again. Sorry.

This recipe was the best! The only problem I had was that I did not make enough of it. This is a keeper.

Great recipe. Add a few tablespoons of cream of wheat and your taverns will stick and stay on the bun. I served them open face after I put them in the oven to melt a half slice of cheese on top.

Great taste. My hubby said it was better than Manwhich. I added approx. 2 Tbsp. yellow mustard; cut the soy sauce to 2 Tbsp., and added 1 Tbsp. worcestershire sauce. Doubled the recipe so I can freeze some for later.

Wow! I would give these more stars but I can't. It has been a long time since I have done Sloppy Joes and I would use the canned sauce. I am not going back. These are soooo good! I love it. I followed the recipe for 12 servings and barely had enough to bring for lunch. They are fantastic!!! I will do these again and again and will not use Manwich, as another user stated, again.

I'm giving this 5 stars because this taste just like Manwich!!! I wanted to make something quick and I didn't have much in the fridge or the freezer, but luckily I had everything on your ingredient list (I did add mustard like some the other reviewers suggested) and I threw them together in no time and it was sooo good... My 7 year old said "It was her favorite" and my boyfriend gobbled up 3 by himself!!! Great, Great, Great recipie!!!

I just made this recipe for a summer children's camp and the sloppy joes were a hit! One counselor said it was the best recipe all summer. I did follow the suggestions of many of the reviewers and added 2 TB yellow mustard and 2 tsp w. sauce. I cooked for 60 and scrapped the roaster to make the last few. Great recipe!

I have a very picky bunch with five kids all having different tastes and my husband to boot, but everybody agreed on this one. This was great. I will make this again. Also i tried adding a few teaspoons of mustard to the mix and it was good that way.

This is the best sloppy joe ever!!! My 10 year old daughter ate 2 and I ate 3. I love the flavor the soy sauce gave it. I love this web site because I would never had thought of adding soy sauce in a sloppy joe recipie. It tastes sooo good. Thanks for posting!!!!

This recipe was so easy and my kids loved it. I don't eat meat so I can only go off of the review of the family, but my son LOVES mamwich and didn't even know this wasn't it. I followed the advice of other reviewers and added the yellow mustard. I didn't have brown sugar so I went with one tb white sugar and 1 1/2 tb molasses, no one seemed to mind the change. I also used ground turkey because our family doesn't eat beef and added 2 tb bar-b-que sauce because the kids like the bbq mamwich. It was a big hit on a night I couldn't think of anything to make for dinner.

Made this and my family liked it-said it wasn't bad. But I thought it wasn't all that great. Really wish my mom could remember how she made hers! I can't say I'll be making this again.

This was a really simple, yet great tasting recipe. My only - yet very tiny - complaint was that it tasted just a tad too sweet for me. However, everyone else loved it. Plus, just for a small kick, I added some cayenne to spice it up just a bit. It definitely filled us up and I'm sure I will use it again in the near future!

Very good. Possibly the best I've ever had! It works really well with ground turkey. I only used one pound of meat and cut the onion and tomato paste by half and came out with the perfect amount of sauce, so I would probably double the tomato sauce, ketchup and brown sugar if I made a full. I added a big splash of Worcestershire and a half of a chopped bell pepper to the meat as it cooked. Toss a buttered hoagie bun under the broiler for a few minutes, add a bit of shredded cheddar and your meat and it's perfect!

This is a great recipe, my kids loved it. The only change I made is to use a bit more tomato sauce (15 oz) and only 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.

My family was dubious about having sloppy joes--but my 13-year old son went back for thirds and my husband raved about the taste! I will definitely use this recipe again! I did end up using soy sauce (1/2 tsp) instead of the listed sauce as I only had that on hand.
