I doubled this recipe minus all of the water, and put into my crockpot for about 4-5 hours on low. I also cooked with the hamburger while browning, one small onion diced, and 2 stalks of celery. I also added about 1/4 tsp. of chili powder. Served on fresh bakery buns. Really a very good change from tomato based recipes. So easy too.

Canned gumbo? Good for a rush job, but its not anything as good as Mom's home-made.

This is the only way I will eat Sloppy Joes. It is less tomatoe and more zip than traditional Sloppy Joes which is why I love it. It is also a hit with my husband and toddlers.

after trying a recipe similiar to this one I went on the hunt for one like it. I found this recipe and I will never go back to a canned sloppy joe sandwich. My family loves this recipe and it is so easy.

Very easy recipe that my mom used to make. She would sauteed a small onion before adding the ground beef and add a small amount of chili powder for a little extra taste. This will always be my favorite recipe from my mom.

This has a very unique taste and is very different from the tomato sauce sloppy joes. The whole family loved these!

I added garlic salt and Lawry's season salt. Be sure to use regular mustard not powered.

Have been making this for 1,000 years. Well, not quite that long...only 50. They are so much better than the sweet ones. I sometimes add some chopped green olives or serve with a slice of raw onion.

We love this recipe for sloppy joe's. The more traditional tomato based ones can be overpowering at times. My VERY PICKY daughter actually asks me to make these! A very good quick meal on ballgame nites!

This is a version of my classic recipe. I dice-up a small onion & brown it together w/1lb. lean ground beef. Drain off any excess fat. Add 1/2tsp. salt, 1/4tsp. ground black pepper, 4T. catsup, 1tsp. wet or dry mustard, 1 can condensed Chicken Gumbo soup & 1/4c. water. You simmer without a lid for about 20min. Another variation is to use 1can vegetable soup & 1/4c. catsup, instead of the Chicken Gumbo soup. Make certain you let this thicken up!

I've been using a recipe similar to this for 20+ years, but I omit water and use about 1 cup of ketchup (I use the cheapest kind I can find). A college roomate made these, and I tried it before I realized it was made w/Chicken gumbo soup. I might not have tried them otherwise, and would have missed a jewel of a meal! It was a good way to sneak veggies into my kids meals, as they never watched me make it. TRY IT! You'll love it!

Not wonderful but still pretty good. My three children really enjoyed this but my husband and I thought it was just so-so.

I saute' some grated onio into this when I make it,brown the beef and onions well before adding the soup and make sure you cook it until they are no longer "soupy"...and we don't put anything on our buns - Just the sloppy joe mixture.

Very good. I added a Tablespoon of Worstershire Sauce and that gave more flavor. Really good with a slice of cheese.
