Homemade Manwich

Homemade Manwich

Adapted from an internet recipe.
This is a copycat recipe for the popular canned item called Manwich which is basically a Sloppy Joe sauce. This recipe as stated makes the same as one 15 oz can of Manwich sauce. One can can be used to make Manwich Sloppy Joe Sandwiches or for use in other recipes that require just a can of the sauce. I made this on 15 Jun 2024, very well liked by the family and I.

Ingredients
  

  • 500 grams ground beef, or pork, (1 lb)
  • 1 small green bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup tomato ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ¼ teaspoon celery seed
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder, optional
  • buns, split, buttered, and toasted, for serving

Instructions
 

For Manwich Sloppy Joes

  • Brown the beef in a pan until little no pink remains.
  • While the beef is cooking, dice the bell pepper and set aside, then add the remaining ingredients, except the bell pepper and buns, to a small mixing bowl and stir together to make the sauce.
  • Once the beef is cooked, drain the excess fat and return to heat. Add the bell pepper and cook for 3-5 minutes to soften the pepper, stir often.
  • Add the sauce, stir and allow mixture to come to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring often, for 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve on toasted buns with any toppings you desire. Enjoy.
  • These are excellent with a slice of Cheddar on top.

For use in other recipes

  • To use in recipes that simply require one 15 oz can, simply omit the ground beef and use the remaining ingredients as listed.

Notes

Fair cost per serving depending on where you source the beef from.
