Kittys Sloppy Joes Recipes

SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• In a saucepan over low heat combine the sauce ingredients. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix well, and simmer while preparing the meat.
• Heat a heavy nonstick or cast-iron skillet, at least 10 inches in diameter, over medium-high heat. Add the ground sirloin, and saute, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink. Turn the meat into a strainer or colander lined with paper towels, allowing the fat to drain off.
• Add the onion to the pan, and sauté, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Return the meat to the pan, and add the sauce. Heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and season with salt, pepper or more hot sauce, if desired. Spoon 1/2 cup of the mixture over each bun. Serve immediately.

YOU WON'T BELIEVE THEY'RE MEATLESS SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• make the 'meat': Pulse the mushrooms and walnuts in a food processor in batches until it breaks down into a ground beef texture.
• cook: heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions, bell pepper and minced garlic, and let cook for 5 minutes or until the veggies soften. Add the prepared mushroom mix to the skillet, stir so everything is well combined and let cook for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients: ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard, cayenne, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Stir everything together and let simmer for 5 minutes. Adjust with additional salt to taste.
• assemble: Serve the prepared sloppy joe mix on top of toasted buns. Best when served the day it's prepared. I find the sloppy joes mixture looses that texture on day two.

• Toast rolls. Butter if desired (I don't).

SLOPPY JOE'S HAND PIES

Steps:

• Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl and whisk together.
• Place water, butter and shortening in a sauce pan and bring to a boil.
• When the fats have melted and the water is boiling, pour into the flour and stir with a spatula.
• Once the dough has cooled enough to touch, kneed for 5 minutes.
• Divide two thirds of the dough into four large balls and one third of the dough into four small balls. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
• In a dutch oven, melt butter over medium high heat.
• Add vegetables to the pot and saute until the vegetables are tender.

• Cook until the sauce is very thick and most of the water has evaporated.
• Mix in the rosemary and season with salt and pepper to taste, then chill.
• Roll out one of the larger dough balls between two sheets of parchment. Use the hand as a guide, making sure that there's excess to hang over the sides of the mold.
• Press the dough into the mold then fill two-thirds full with sloppy joe mixture.
• Using the mold, make a hand template out of paper.
• Roll out one of the small dough balls between two sheets of parchment and then cut out a hand shape using the template you just created.
• Trim the bottom crust so that there's about half an inch of dough all around. Place the cut out dough on top of the filling and roll the bottom crust over the top, pressing the dough to make a tight seal.
• Place hand mold open side down on a cookie sheet lined with parchment and place in the freezer until completely frozen.
• Repeat the process for the next three hands.
• Preheat oven to 450F
• Pull the plastic mold off of the frozen hands then let warm up at room temperature for 15 minutes.

• Make indentations around the fingernails.
• Make egg wash by whisking together the egg and cream, then brush onto hands.
• Reopen any slits that have closed up.
• Mix together wine and tomato paste and brush into slits, fingernails and then all over.

• Make a "bone" out of a white carrot, parsnip or parsley root with a vegetable peeler and roast until cooked but still firm.
• Once the hand pies are done baking, insert the bone into the wrist.
