The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Sloppy Joes


Mommy Modified Recipe

2 lb. hamburger
¾ C. ketchup
¾ C. water
2 TB minced dried onion, rejuvenated
1 ¼ tsp chili powder
1 ¼ tsp. garlic salt
1 ¼ tsp. ground mustard
12 oz. tomato paste
1 TB plus 1 tsp. sugar
1 ½ tsp. apple cider vinegar
Hamburger buns

Brown the hamburger in a skillet.  Place all the ingredients in the crock pot and stir to combine.  Turn on low for 1 hour or until heated through.  Can be kept on low or warm during serving.  Place mixture on buns and serve. 
Yields: 12-16 sandwiches

We made these for the movers when we moved from Virginia to Texas and they were so very thankful to not be eating pizza!  We figured it pays to treat the folks well who are packing up your things.  :)  This is a good recipe to take to church.  It works well on rolls and goes pretty far. 
Love Always,
Mommy
