Mini Sloppy Joes with Pulled Pork

Mini Sloppy Joes with Pulled Pork

If you have leftover pulled pork, with no sauce on it, turn it into sloppy Joe-type sandwiches for a twist on hamburger. Mini Kaiser rolls provide a sturdy, flavorful base for the sandwiches, which can be served alone as an appetizer, or as a main dish when accompanied by your favorite sides. We like fresh corn on the cob and coleslaw.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2/3 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 cups cooked pulled pork without sauce
  • 3 dashes hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®), or to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 10 mini-Kaiser rolls, sliced and warmed

Directions

Step 1
Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper, and cook, stirring, about 5 minutes. Add beef stock, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic, and chili powder; stir until well mixed.

Step 2
Mix in pulled pork until well combined. Season with hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and allow to bubble gently until thickened and reduced, 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 3
Place about 1/2 cup of the mixture on each sliced mini Kaiser roll and serve immediately.

Cook’s Note:

If your family has a sensitive palate, omit the chili powder and hot sauce.
