Ah good ol’ sloppy joes. Man, I hadn’t made sloppy joes in almost a decade.

I used to make them with ground turkey, with tomato paste with all the spices. It’s basically a soupier picadillo. Like REALLY soupy but obviously with different flavors.

I digress. THESE are special joes. I wanted to make something that would be good for a random game day, friends gathering, the Big Game, or even a quick weeknight meal.

Enter…chorizo sloppy joes!

I love game days! They are a great excuse to make all the goods! I mean, unless you’re a sports fan then yeah, GO TEAM and all that. ;) But these mini chorizo sloppy joes are a great option for the next game day. And boy are they sloppy.

They come together VERY easy because well, that’s my favorite type of recipe.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Ground beef
Mexican chorizo
White onion
Barbecue sauce
Hawaiian sweet rolls
Green onions

How To Make Mini Chorizo Sloppy Joes

Cook the meats. In a skillet, cook beef and chorizo together, over medium-high heat, until completely cooked. Drain.
Cook the onions. Return skillet to the heat and add onions. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add barbecue sauce and water.
Simmer the meats with the onions. Reduce heat to low, simmer and stir occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until no longer soupy. Careful not to dry it out. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Put it all together. Spoon meat mixture into the Hawaiian sweet rolls and garnish with green onions. Serve and enjoy!

I MEAN YUMMMMMMM.

Does NOT get better than that!
