Sloppy Joe Sliders on Soft Buns with Corn on the Cob
Equipment
- Large Skillet
- Large Pot
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- ¾ cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 8 soft slider buns
- 4 ears corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Place the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until it is no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon as it browns.
- Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the onion softens.
- Stir in the ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors blend and the sauce thickens slightly.
- While the beef simmers, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the corn and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the kernels are tender.
- Drain the corn, then spread the butter over each ear and sprinkle lightly with salt if desired.
- Split the slider buns, spoon the beef mixture into each bun, and serve the sliders alongside the corn.
Notes
Simmer the beef mixture a minute or two longer if you prefer a thicker filling that clings better to the soft buns. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for two days and reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water to loosen the sauce.
