Recently, I gave the Stuart Ranch Meat Company Sloppy Joe recipe a try and let me just tell you it was a HUGE win in our home and let me tell you why. I LOVE Sloppy Joes... my son however does not. Imagine Sam I Am in Dr. Suess’s Green Eggs and Ham... Drew WILL NOT EAT THEM. Get this, he ATE THIS SLOPPY JOE and ASKED FOR ANOTHER. I could’ve cried happy tears. Expect this to be in our monthly dinner rotation. One critique from an 8 year old... “it was a little spicy” but side note: I made these to MY spice level because I thought that there was no way in the world he would ever touch them so I will dial back the heat next time I make them... the ingredients are easily adjusted.
The other substitution I made was kidney beans instead of the black beans but that’s simply because I didn’t have any on hand at home. I made a quick coleslaw from Dole coleslaw mix with Hidden Valley Coleslaw dressing, salt, pepper and a squeeze of lime juice and a slice of Borden Cheese pepper jack cheese. So delicious...as I’ve mentioned before, both of our grocery stores supply our customers with Beef that is locally produced from Stuart Ranch Meat Company in Waurika Oklahoma. The ground beef made from their cattle is absolutely delicious. The flavor is incredible and it’s still very lean. This was a huge dinner time win on our kitchen table last night, give it a try! I’ve shared their recipe below and will link their website also. Look there for ordering options from them directly if you’re not in the area of our grocery stores and also for more of their delicious recipes.
