YIELDS: 6 SLIDERS

BBQ SAUCE INGREDIENTS:

• 2 tbsp. sugar
• 2 tbsp. water
• 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
• 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1 cup onion, fine dice
• ¼ cup chopped garlic
• 1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves
• 1 cup Campbell’s Beef Consomme
• 1.5 cups ketchup (10 ounces)
• 1 tsp. tabasco
• 2 tsp. worcestershire
• 1 tsp. black Pepper

SLOPPY JOE INGREDIENTS:

• 12-16 oz. Perry’s Famous Pork Chop leftovers, diced small
• 3 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 cup onion, medium dice
• 1 cup green bell pepper, medium dice
• 1 tbsp. smoked paprika
• 1 tsp. dry oregano
• 2 cups BBQ Sauce (from above recipe)
• 6 four-inch potato hamburger rolls
• 12 slices cross cut pickles
• 1 bag of kettle potato chips

BBQ SAUCE INSTRUCTIONS:

• In a small saucepan, over medium heat, bring the sugar and water to a simmer. Cook until a dark caramel forms (do not burn…no smoke) immediately add the vinegar to dissolve the caramel. Remove to the side.
• In another saucepan, heat the olive oil and cook the onions over medium heat for two minutes to soften the onions.
• Add the garlic and thyme and cook together for 1 additional minute.
• Combine the onion mixture with the sugar mixture.
• Add the ketchup, tabasco, Worcestershire, black pepper and consommé.
• Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, until it resembles a BBQ sauce consistency. Hold.

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, add the oil, onions and peppers. Cook for 2 minutes, until the vegetables are still slightly crunchy in the middle.
• Stir in the paprika and the oregano. Add the pork and the BBQ sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until it reaches a thick and sloppy consistency.
• Toast the potato rolls under the broiler.
• Place a healthy amount of the Sloppy Joe
mixture on the bun.
• Top with the pickles and some chips. Crunch the top of the bun down and enjoy with more chips on the side.
