Your lunchroom favorite goes vegetarian. Slow-cooked green jackfruit adds texture without compromising flavor. Pop this in the slow cooker in the morning, and you’ll have thick and tangy sloppy Joes by lunchtime. Serve with pickles and vegetable chips. No hairnet required.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- ½ cup diced onion
- ½ cup diced red bell pepper
- 1 (16 ounce) can green jackfruit in brine, drained
- 2 cups plain tomato sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 ½ tablespoons brown mustard
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 6 hamburger buns
Directions
Step 1
Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add oil, onion, and bell pepper and cook until slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off Saute function and add jackfruit in a single layer on top of vegetables.
Step 2
Whisk tomato sauce, brown sugar, mustard, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, sriracha sauce, vinegar, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Pour this mixture evenly over jackfruit in the pressure cooker. Close and lock the lid; choose the Slow Cook option and set the timer for 4 hours.
Step 3
Toast hamburger buns and serve topped with cooked jackfruit.
Cook’s Notes:
I used an Instant Pot® that has both Saute and Slow Cook functions. If using a traditional slow cooker, skip the Saute step.
