Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Beef Mixture
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Use a wooden spoon to break it up as it cooks.
- Once the beef is cooked through, add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
- Stir in the tomato sauce, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and mustard.
- Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce (if using).
- Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
Step 2: Prepare the Texas Toast
- While the beef mixture is simmering, butter both sides of the Texas toast slices.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and toast the bread for about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
- Alternatively, you can broil the toast in the oven for a few minutes for an even crispier texture.
Step 3: Assemble the Sloppy Texas Toast
- Once the toast is ready, place it on a plate and spoon the sloppy joe mixture generously over each slice.
- If you like, sprinkle some shredded cheese on top and let it melt.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy!
- Serve immediately while the toast is warm and the sloppy joe filling is hot and flavorful.
- Pair it with a side of crispy fries, coleslaw, or pickles for a classic comfort meal!
