* I don't have exact measurments because I cook by look, smell and taste.

Di's Sloppy Joe's

Make in a crockpot so you can have more time with the family. =)

• ground hamburger. (I cook up a bunch of hamburger and then freeze it by the pound or two. Saves a bunch of time)
• about 1 cup of water (depends on how much hamburger you use.)
• 1 package of dry onion soup mix
• about 3 quick shakes of Worcestershire sauce
• 1 quick shake of Liquid smoke (just a tiny bit!)
• crushed garlic (I use one clove or more) Mmmmm garlic!
• ketchup (I just squeeze the bottle.)
• brown sugar
• small pinch of sea salt

I then do a taste test to see if I need to add more of something. Then I let it cook. Once it is all nice and hot and making the house smell good I take another test to see if it needs anything.

Serve on hamburger buns. I like to put a slice of cheese on mine along with Lays potato chips for added crunch. Comfort!

*****This recipe also works great for meatballs! Omit the ketchup and use less brown sugar. Serve meatballs over mashed potatos or bread. Comfort!
