→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 pound lean ground beef
02 -
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
03 -
1 cup ketchup
04 -
½ cup your favorite BBQ sauce
05 -
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
06 -
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
→ For Serving
07 -
1 box (8 slices) frozen garlic Texas toast
08 -
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (add more if you're a cheese lover!)
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat up a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until nicely browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease when done.
02 -
Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Pour in the diced tomatoes (juice and all), ketchup, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar. Stir everything together until well combined. Cover the skillet and let it simmer on medium heat for about 10 minutes, letting all those flavors meld together.
03 -
While your sloppy joe mixture is simmering away, bake the frozen garlic Texas toast according to the package directions until golden and crispy.
04 -
Place your crispy Texas toast pieces on plates. Generously spoon the hot sloppy joe mixture over each piece of toast, then sprinkle with plenty of shredded cheddar cheese. For extra melty goodness, you can pop these under the broiler for a minute or two until the cheese gets bubbly and slightly browned.
