Sloppy Joe
- 2 pounds ground beef
- ½ cup yellow onion, chopped
- 1 ½ cups (360 g) ketchup
- 1 cup water
- 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Bread Bowls
- 4 round (5-6 inches) rolls, like white kaiser rolls
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons parsley, minced
Topping
- ½ cup (56.5 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded, divided
- ½ cup (56.5 g) sharp cheddar, shredded, divided
- parsley, chopped for garnish
Sloppy Joe
In a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and onions until the beef is no longer pink (8-10 minutes). Drain grease.
Stir in the ketchup, water, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, mixing until combined.
Bread Bowls
Cut the centers out of the tops of the rolls, making sure that the base of the bread remains attached (Be careful to not cut all the way through). Place rolls on the lined baking sheet. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine butter, garlic, salt, and parsley. Stir until well combined.
Spoon and brush the garlic butter sauce equally on each roll (inside and out). You will use 2-3 tablespoons of the garlic butter sauce per roll.
Assembly
Divide the sloppy joe mixture evenly between the rolls. Top each with 2 tablespoons of mozzarella and 2 tablespoons of cheddar.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Top with parsley for garnish.
