Enter: The Best Texas Toast Sloppy Joe Recipe Ever. This dish takes your nostalgic favorite and gives it a crispy, cheesy twist with golden-brown Texas toast. Perfect for busy weeknights or casual get-togethers, this recipe is sure to become a household favorite. Let’s get cooking!
Ingredients:
- Lean ground beef: 1 lb
- Onion: 2.5 cups (chopped)
- Garlic powder: 1/2 tsp
- Ketchup: 3/4 cup
- Tomato paste: 2 tsp
- Worcestershire sauce: 1/2 tsp
- Brown sugar: 2.5 tsp
- Salt and pepper: To taste
- Green Mill Texas Toast: 4 pieces
- Cheddar cheese: 1 oz (shredded)
Instructions:
- Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven’s temperature to 375°F. This ensures your Texas toast will bake to golden-brown perfection.
- Cook the Beef Mixture:
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once the beef is fully browned, drain any excess grease.
- Add the garlic powder, ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir everything well to combine. Cook the mixture over medium heat until it thickens to your desired consistency. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Prepare the Texas Toast:
- While the Sloppy Joe mixture is simmering, place the Green Mill Texas Toast on a baking sheet and into the preheated oven.
- Bake for 5-6 minutes, or until the toast is golden brown and crispy.
- Assemble the Sloppy Joes:
- Remove the Texas toast from the oven. Generously spoon the Sloppy Joe mixture onto each piece of toast.
- Top each with 1/4 oz of shredded Cheddar cheese. For an extra cheesy finish, you can pop the assembled toasts back into the oven for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve immediately while the toast is still crispy and the cheese is gooey. Pair with a simple side salad or some crispy fries for a complete meal.
Tips and Tricks:
- Can I use another type of bread? Absolutely! If you can’t find Texas toast, thick slices of sourdough or French bread make great substitutes.
- Want more veggies? Add finely chopped bell peppers or mushrooms to the beef mixture for added flavor and nutrition.
- Make it spicy: For a kick, stir in some red pepper flakes or hot sauce with the other seasonings.
A Fun Story: The first time I made this, I underestimated how much my family would love it. My husband ended up eating three pieces in one sitting, and my kids couldn’t stop talking about the “cheesy toast magic.” The only downside? No leftovers! Now, I double the recipe every time.
