Next time get some salty potato chips and when sloppy joe falls off of bun scrap up with chips and eat like a dip , yummy. 🤤🤗
Mom also served Sloppy Joes with sweet Bread and Butter round, flat pickle chips. Same concept. I would use them to scoop up the fallen Sloppy Joe mix. Between the salty potato chips and sweet pickles, it was a sweet and salty yummy delight.
Potato chips are good with sloppy joes. I also like potato salad with them.
This is definitely the key to sloppy joes.
Put the potato chips ON the sandwich. Also good with cheese and sliced onion.
💯
When I was little, I used to think my dad invented Sloopy Joe's. Then, one day at school, they were serving Sloppy Joe's for lunch, and I asked the lunch lady if she got the recipe from my dad 😂
That's freaking adorable.
Is your Dad's name Joe?
That's funny.
@stephenfisher3721 The funniest part is NO my dad's name wasn't Joe. I didn't even question why he called it Sloppy Joe's 😂
What a precious story! ❤
Love your channel. Your family is blessed and highly favored. I’m a black woman from Alabama and your videos give the best insight into American culture. Food is cheap for us, so we show our love and care through food and we make a LOT of it. So, the fact that Americans that you’ve never met are so excited to feed your family gives you the absolute best insight into American culture and social norms. Because most Americans are of the mind that it costs me nothing to be kind and I may not have much else to give a stranger, but I can feed you. ❤
Amen. In the South in particular, food is love. :)
Like you said, food is our culture. We love pushing the boundries when it comes to food and can/will make anything we can, plus feeding others just brings joy.
Dad secret weapon. So easy to make on Dad’s night to cook
even way up here in IN, at work I'll offer the younger folks, you fly I buy, Love cooking for friends and family. Food brings so many together. Constantly out of pocket for my team at work but I also feel blessed to be able to do so, or even cooking and bringing food in for the crew. We basically take turns and it's wonderful. We actually wound up with what we called a "car fund" where any change leftover from the last order was kept because nobody was worried about a few bucks and at one point almost had $70 in it last year, It's us, we gotta take care of those around us. Even if they call you dad or say your shoes are the new grill-master 5000's, all about that crew.
Well said ma'am....
I busted out laughing at Nadine’s stair walk!! So funny!
As an American who hasn’t had a sloppy joe in maybe 10 years, I’m running to the store to buy what I need ASAP ❤️
been a while for me too, but man am I craving them now!
Man same here it's been so long 😂
🤣
Here's a tip try toasting the bread a bit to give it a little bit of crunch to it.
@@christopherbillings6294 Butter the bread too before you put it in. 👍🏼
The fact that I didn't see a SINGLE napkin, when you started, made my heart skip a beat!!! That's like shaking up a hornet's nest with no clothes on!!! That's SUPERHERO level!!!
LOVE you guys...
for sure!
We always have kids and my husband a bib 😉😂🤣
I go through two or three. Hahaha
It's so cool that you guys love sloppy joes! the difference between Hunts (Manwich) and the McCormick is that the McCormick is spicier and the Manwich is sweeter. Both very good, but in different ways. I used to make the Manwich and kick up the spice by adding some chili powder and a little hot sauce to it. Good stuff!
Ain't that the truth they have to be the neatest and cleanest bunch of kids I have ever seen
You guys are just the nicest family. Your children are fortunate to have such great parents.
Now I'm craving Sloppy Joes 😊. I like to put some chopped onion on mine.
Ah, YES! Copped onions! LOVE 'em with my sloppy Joes! 😁
Chopped onion and a sprinkle of salt before putting the top bun on.
@@usafvet100 Oh, and some garlic powder's good, too! Sometimes, I also add bacon bits & some pepperoni to my sloppy Joes, too! 😁😍😎👍
@@Kenneth_Mac_Pherson a Sloppy Joe deluxe! 🙂
Grilled onion mixed with the raw onion
I love how the kids arent afraid to try new foods
I can PROMISE you my 8 year old could smell ANY of these cooking and be insanely excited lol
I love cooking so much. Seeing people enjoy new foods warms my heart.
It’s beef
@@Matts_Johnson. im talking in general i kw wtf the meat is
"A sandwich is a sandwich, but a Manwich is a meal" was (maybe still is) their tag line. Yes, it's pronounced man which.
MY MANWHICH!!!
In the western US we don't ever pronounce the 'h' sound. It's just wich. Like sandwich.
@@Isabella66Gracen the "h" is also silent in which.
@@wombat1222 For many people. But for others, the ‘wh’ is a specific sound as in ‘what’, ‘when,, ‘which’, etc.
@@pacmanc8103 yeah, I think you're thinking of Stewie on Family Guy saying "cool whip". The "h" is always silent in which.
We always added sautéed green pepper and onion to the ground beef. Also don't forget to salt and pepper the meat while cooking! 😋
We add the green bell pepper and onion but also add some diced roasted green chile to give it a little zip!
I love that your daughter is doing the cooking! I wish I would have been better at letting my son take control with these kinds of things. You two are clearly really good parents.
You still can, teach them to be careful and the dangers
I was going to comment the same thing.
Some kids are afraid of the stove, but Atlanta doesn't pay it any mind and just gets in there and cooks away.
As an American Boomer, Mom & veteran cook, Sloppy Joe's are so easy to make from scratch that I believe they taste so much better. There are so many recipes on Pinterest, just pick a simple one & have at it. If you liked the commercial ones, you're Really going to love one that you tweak for yourselves & make your own. 🧑🍳
Growing up we just browned the hamburger, toss in a can of tomato soup, season with garlic, basil, and a touch of oregano, simmer to incorporate the flavors and you are done. For a bit of punch you could add a bit of cayenne.
P.S. McCormick is one of the biggest spice mongers in the US.
Kj --- So simple, ketchup yellow mustard brown sugar onion worscesterhire sauce, vinegar onion powder garlic powder water I may have forgotten something but brown ground beef add the ingredients bring to boil, heat down to simmmer cover 15 20 minutes and serve. Best ever
I NEVER buy that damned little packet of "Sloppy joe seasoning mix". I have salt, garlic, and plenty of spices in my pantry and you might as well use the good spices you have than buy a packet of some weird ass sloppy joe seasoning mix that has artifical color and sodium and other crap in it. If you have some good spices in your pantry they will work just fine even if they are not exactly the same as the "seasoning mix" Same goes for taco seasoning mix. I never buy those stupid ass little mix packets and it always comes out delicious.
@@mkshffr4936 1. I recommend putting the garlic and onion in when the hamburger is already mostly cooked, not the beginning. UNDER COOKED is a GOOD thing when its the garlic and onion!.
2. I love experimenting with spice mixtures. I live a short walk from a big spice store. MANY spices are good in sloppy Joe and you never need to buy some bullshit little sloppy joe seasoning mix packet. An example of a spice that beats the crap out of the "seasoning mix" is the Ghost Pepper Curry but there are so many others.
3. If you don't have any hamburger buns what you made is basically marriana meat sauce and it would work just fine on spaghetti I bet.
I'm from America and was thinking McCormack the whole time. They make a lot of great spice blends. You can almost never go wrong with them.
McCormack is a national US brand. All their spices are legit.
@@rpm371 Right I use them for everything I have the steak seasoning hamburger seasoning and several others mainly because I am to lazy to make my own spice blends specifically for steak or hamburgers.
Not true. They're usually pretty good but their FAJITA SEASONING is abysmal. Really bad. Google the recipe and make your own (the version with cornstarch). We serve our Manwich open-faced over the bun, topped with grated cheddar and chopped red onions.
I do my own seasoning because I find that all the pre packaged ones are too salty.
@@judithjanes5738 I like their fajita seasoning but it is not a good fajita flavoring if that makes sense.
I love the fact you make a meal time a family activity. Conversing and engaging your children to promote more in depth critical thought. I just found your channel but love it!
I love how funny the children are and how loving you are as a family unit.
This made me SO happy to see. As a kid growing up in America, Sloppy Joe day at school was always a welcomed treat for lunch. Cheers!
Yeah it was. And pizza.
Unfortunately, the SJs at my school weren't too good.
Great. Now I got Sandlers lunch lady song running round my brain! 🎶🎶Sloppy joes, slop, sloppy joes! 🎵🎵
I greatly appreciate your family. In this crazy, angry world y'all are a breath of fresh air!!
I'm late to this party, but wanted to share this.
Sloppy Joe has been the basis of our family Christmas dinner for over 40 years, lol.
We have always done our family gathering on Christmas Eve and my Mother long ago decided that another large family dinner so close to Thanksgiving was just too much.
She would make a slow cooker of Sloppy Joe and a big bowl of coleslaw then set out buns, paper plates, plastic silverware and whatever addons that came to mind (cheese, pickles, chips, etc). Everyone else would bring an appetizer, dessert, finger food or something else to add to the table. The atmosphere is more like an indoor picnic, low stress, easygoing and easy clean up.
We lost Mom on New Years Day 2020 but there's still always SJ and coleslaw in her memory.
BTW, try coleslaw and sliced cheddar cheese on the sandwich. If you have leftovers, it's actually tasty over pasta for a different take on spaghetti the next day. cheers!
We also celebrate on Christmas Eve and do easy meal. Generally meatballs and/or sliced turkey brst for sanwiches, but maybe I'll change things up and do sloppy joe's nxt year!
We started a soup and sandwich tradition in 2008. We lost my father in law in March that year and we wanted to get together but keep it simple. That leaves Christmas open for those with little kids if they want to stay home or if people want to go away. I’m sorry about your mom. She sounds like a beautiful person.
I have figured out why this channel warms my heart so much. It's partly a subconscious, and now conscious, comparison. Any time I hear things about my country, and by extension me as "an American", it's always negative. People really hate us, and love to make sure we know it. Some of the things I read and hear, you'd think we were a different species or something.
It's really nice to see a family say 'we're not going to be like others, we build bridges not burn them'. I adore these 4 precious souls.
Actually, I highly agree with this! Upon reflection, I agree very much that there is a lot of hatred towards the states from other countries (sometimes it's not hard to see why because some of us don't like the way things are either) and this family is just so warm and loving. I love all their personalities and the family unit is just adorable!
@@WayneClark Ummm... they've had an education, unlike you.
@@azurecielo52479 At least he uses his name so what he spelled they wrong
@@FUBAR1986 he spelled "they" wrong? I thought "they" is spelled "T-H-EY", and "the" is spelled ""T-H-E". So impossible to know from your illiterate response.
Well said.
As someone who didn’t grow up in a family household this channel really makes me feel at home.
Mac and cheese from the box is terrible. Try Martha Stewart's recipe. Use cheddar cheese.
@@christinetranchell7833 I try to add some garlic salt and Velveeta cheese(like substance) to mac n cheese to make it creamier. Cheddar is great for flavor.
Likewise. It is nice to see a family together.
When you mentioned "minced meat" as your term for hamburger meat or ground beef, as a native Texan I couldn't help but think of the sweet dessert pies my mom used to make called "mincemeat pie." They actually contain finely chopped beef suet, but can also contain apple, apricots, figs, raisins, brown sugar, brandy, lemon juice and zest, orange zest, allspice, cinnamon, ground cloves, salt, ginger and eggs. There are dozens of recipes that vary from this and include other ingredients as well, like honey and apricots. In the south it seems every family has their own recipes for almost everything. However, the star of this pie is beef and just isn't the same if it's left out (which you can do, but then it wouldn't be called mince"meat" would it?). One caution though. You might not want to tell little kids that it has meat in it... they might think that's yucky. When I was a kid I never knew what was in these pies, only that I really liked them. When I grew up I was surprised when I found out the "meat" in the name of the pie was quite literal. I don't remember all the ingredients my mom used in her pies, but if I can find her recipe I'll send it to you. With that, in your country do you guys have some kind of dessert pie that also includes meat?
My grandma loved her minced meat pie. According to our traditions, the meat was the basis and the other fruit and vegetables were things left over from canning, or left--over meals. The taste would be slightly different at times due to the sugar content, but with the crust and the meat, it was pretty much the same.
My mother loved mincemeat pies too! Would you please share l the recipe? I love apricots too!
Manwich is probably the most widely recognized / known Sloppy Joe mix, in part to their catchy slogan "A sandwich is a sandwich but a manwich is a meal". I think a lot of us will relate to Manwich as like you suggested something that can be thrown together quickly and easily at the last minute to feed the family. However, McCormick is also a very good option as you saw. McCormick is a spice brand here in the US, they produce to many spices to name. So awesome to see ya'll enjoying an old school American standby. Although I will say I can't do the whole pickle thing, I prefer a side of chips to scoop up the droppings
yes, my momma always got the manwich or however its spelled. Our quick, cheap, and easy meals when money was short. Miss her. now I need to go out and get stuff for sloppies.... :)
Dill pickle chips with Manwich is GOD TIER!
I never had Manwich! Only what I made from scratch and my. O s. Yum
Manwich, it's a sandwich for a man! I'm pretty sure that was one of the marketing techniques they used.
my mom always used the McCormick spice blend when making sloppy joes. This is a classic American weeknight meal when both your parents have been working all day and they just want something easy that everyone will like. It is a common working class meal.
So glad you all tried this classic. Remember though you split the meat between three types of joes mix. The powder mix is for a full pound of meat. So if you picked McCormicks it is probably because there was a little more powder to get a bit more of the spice in it. In either case Manwich did not come in last. Happy tasting.
It's been over a year and people are still checking out your sloppy joes. Yum😋🤤 healthy don't think so.
61 years old and there's still nothing like a 'man-wich' sloppy joe sandwich!
It’s so nostalgic, I haven’t had one in awhile. But just thinking of a bite brings me to my childhood
Same
I'm of even greater vintage, and I was just thinking how *hugely* popular sloppy joes were in school, over 50 years ago!
@@stashphl5348 Indeed
Can't leave out the onions, and a bit of brown sugar and vinegar and green pepper and often I use diced tomatoes whatever you throw at it pleasantly sticks to the ribs...... Another good way to go is just ground beef and onions seasoned only with salt and pepper, just a loose meat sandwich. An alternative to the bun, is Grandma's tater tot casserole, you just put tater tots on top of your meat mixture and brown in the oven til the tots are crispy.... Yummy
I’ve never seen people so happy to eat sloppy joes before haha. Good work guys!
I haven’t had a sloppy Joe in years
Now this video is making me starving for one
Not since the commercial many years ago.
This family would make a great ad.
I am living vicariously through y’all…. I never got to experience fun family time because it was always about what my dad wanted to do, never about the family as a whole…. It’s good to see a dad enjoy family time and do fun things like simple meals involving the kids too so they can also have fun.
It's good also to cook the hamburger meat with onion. Onion is a good healthy veg with great flavor and helps the sloppy joes go farther.
Your family just warms my Southern heart. I love how you are eager to try new foods and the positive attitude you have. It must be great living in your household.
Sloppy joes wasy childhood favorite honestly still is 😂
Oh wow - I haven't had one for probably 30 years but can tell you they are so very gooood!!!
It's such a great comfort food!
One of my favorite all-American sandwiches is the Monte Cristo. It was super popular in the 1960s & 70s here. It is basically Ham (thin-sliced Deli Style) and a white Cheese (usually Swiss slices), piled up between 2 slices of white bread lightly toasted - but then the whole thing is soaked in the sweetened Egg & Milk mixture that you would use for French Toast. Then you pan fry it in butter (or deep fry it) until the edges are slightly crisp, making it into a kind of stuffed French Toast filled with salty melted cheese & ham. Cover the warm sandwich with powdered sugar and serve with Strawberry Jam on the side. The Monte Cristo is a very cool and "Retro" sweet & savory sandwich that is found only in America.
I totally enjoy watching your family videos. I grew up on Sloppy Joes. I love that your children are experiencing all these different foods and how they help out in the kitchen. Thank you for all the respect and love you show to the US. I'm from South Texas and I lived watching your trip to Texas.
PS: I love how Atlanta isn't calling it "mince" anymore, she's calling it ground beef -- which is the term most frequently used in the US. // And your son wears his Sloppy Joes very well on his chin!
Yep, young kids typically are a bit messy when it comes to a sloppy joe. That's why the name sloppy and was invented by a man named Joe. Your daughter did pretty well with the messy part.
That’s funny we’re doing mince impressions here...
Corn chips (FRITOS) goes great with sloppy joes. Love it
I agree
And lays original potato chips.
Salt and vinegar
Yes! I like it with the BBQ or Chili Cheese Fritos
Fritos are my favorite chips! I just wish they were a bit less salty. They also taste great in chili.
I have six grown kids. All but one of them live in one state, and the other one lives across the country without any family nearby. For Christmas this year, one of the gifts I sent him was a Sloppy Joe kit; all the ingredients he would need were waiting for him at WalMart. He was so happy!
Only one suggestion from me. Don't pour off the pickle juice, keep it refrigerated. On a hot day, it is truly refreshing and I always have some around to enjoy. As there are many varieties of pickle juices, you may find that 'Bread& Butter' suits you better than 'Kosher Dill' or other types. It doesn't take a lot, a half a shot to a shot's worth is good. It can also be used to pickle bits of veggies or eggs and so forth. Starting with something you like is always easier than never quite getting something homemade to quite suit you.
Adding pickle juice to macaroni and tuna salad or potato salad can be an amazing secret ingredient.
Freeze it... also in deviled eggs!
Just a suggestion, my family adds lightly chopped onion, and green peppers to the ground beef with the seasoning . Happy New Year from New Jersey!👍🇺🇸
Same Here
You from north or south Jersey
@@Reaper20Death Central New Jersey hour to NYC or Central Philly. But I have to confess the love lightly chopped onion & green peppers is from my moms recipe from Ohio but my partner of 34 years she’s also adds it and she’s from Ocala Florida! Stay Safe Rock On!🙏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Toasting the buns in the oven or frying pan with butter + adding some chopped onion to the ground beef mix while cooking is a nice touch.
This is the only way I make sloppy joes!
I love watching you and your family try out our American food. I'm so glad that you all enjoy it. So from us, your American followers, we thank you for making these videos to share.
Sloppy Joes are a quick dinner meal. Our family has used both Manwich and McCormack. We use Manwich most often. Manwich also makes a Thick and Chunky version which has chunks of tomatoes and diced green pepper and onion….and also a BOLD version which has a more spicy kick to it, if you like more spicy food. They are all good and easy to make. I buy the thick and chunky version these days. Our family has sloppy joes about every two months. We have potato chips as a side, most of the time. But sometimes we have French fries or potato salad.
Do you make potato salad in NZ? Here in the US, potato salad is at every cookout or barbecue or picnic. And there are many varieties. Some people make it with mayonnaise and mustard. Some make it with just mayonnaise. Some make it with ketchup. Some make a Baked Potato version with Sour cream and bacon. There is a German potato salad, which has a sweet/sour flavor. A friend of mine makes a Deviled Egg version. So good!
My husband had a strong preference for the BOLD manwich, so that is what I always made and my kids liked it too! He also preferred the German style potato salad as that is what his Mexican mother always made. My oldest son's mother in law made deviled eggs one Thanksgiving and my husband made a real pig of himself, so I questioned him about it and he said they were the best deviled eggs he ever tasted, turns out they were totally different and had a bit of sweetness to them and my husband declared they weren't deviled eggs but angelic eggs. and that is what she now calls them.
I think I’m gonna make sloppy joe’s today, it’s been awhile. They really are an American classic. I was kind of curious how “authentic” they were gonna be. Whoever sent you that package really knocked it out of the park, good job.
Better than the UK man who did not have any guidance from his American friend and made them with leftover chili and BBQ sauce.
You can never go wrong with anything McCormick's! I add diced onions to my meat when I'm cooking sloppy joe & when it's cooked, I add cheese. I enjoyed watching your family eat. 😊
I didn't know it came in package like McCormick
Yes yes yes
You lost me with "CHEESE".
@@earlwyss520 you must not like cheese on your burgers either I'm assuming.
@@AkRenee No, I'll eat cheese burgers, but I'm appalled at our American fascination of putting cheese on everything. Cheese just shouldn't be on some things.
Atlanta is always so proper, so seeing her with sloppy joe face is very funny and shows how much she likes sloppy joe
Love how you refer to what we call a lunch or dinner as a snack!
Man, I haven't had sloppy joe's in many years, and now I'm craving them. I used to have to put ruffle's potato chips on the sandwich to make it crunchy and a little pickle relish...absolutely delicious!
I gotta go with Lay's potato chips on my sloppy joe's....been eating this combo for many many years.
@Ellie5621 i eat them so much, so good
I really think Atlanta should start her own cooking channel!!
I'd subscribe.
I'd sub
Heck that girl will be competing on top chef by the time she is 18 probably.
I am also a boomer mom in the USA and was raised cooking everything from scratch. I make my own version of sloppy joe and there are so many recipes out there.
It tickled me to watch you and your family try our cafeteria food, for me I first had a sloppy joe in school for lunch in the cafeteria. I am interested on what food from what country you will try next. I love cooking and making dishes from around the world. It's like going on a vacation without leaving your kitchen. Thank you for such an upbeat video it really brightened my day.
When I was growing up. We'd always use manwhich. And sprinkle shredded cheese on before closing the top bun. Would always have plain potato chips to dip up what falls out. My University's cafeteria had sloppy Joe night also. Not as good but still one of my favorites.
It has the name, "sloppy"' for a reason... It's meant to fall out of the bun and hit your plate, so when you're done devouring the actual "sammich", you use a fork and clean up the tailings. Here in America, at least, Spokane, WA. we usually just use a fork and eat like wild animals. Manwich is awesome, quick and easy, but you can google a lot of homemade recipes that are way better than our canned stuff. Sloppy Joes over here are just a very tasty way to make everyone in the family happy on a full-on budget... Don't forget to make fries. Screw potato chips...
These people are such a wholesome family it's refreshing to see....I think they totally have room in their heart's and home to adopt this lovely 39 year old boy I know whom is desperately in need of a family who cares!!! I think you're a perfect fit and you would just love Jason! Lmao 🤣😂
I think the same thing every time I watch, I'm a year older than you but what's one more 😂
I'm a 51 year old Oklahoman, born and raised. I eat my Sloppy Joe's open-faced. I placed one half of the bun on my plate. Add a slice of American Cheese atop the bun. Spread the Manwich Thick & Chunky liberally atop the cheese. Then I crumble up some Lay's Potato Chips and sprinkle them atop the Joe mix. It is HEAVEN.
Sloppy Joe's is me and my son's favorite meal! Unfortunately, my husband hates them. We only eat them when he makes me mad. Lol!
My husband doesn't care for Mnawich either, so I make him a couple cheeseburgers and then I make my manwich.
I have one that hates sloppy jokes too. That’s why I started using taco seasoning and tomato sauce and kerneled corn and a slice of cheddar cheese. Now when sloppy Joe is mentioned for dinner there are no complaints.
I put a slice of American cheese on the bun so it melts and also a handful of potato chips! Nice quick easy meal.😋
I love it that you guys are trying all the things I grew up with. Just brings a nostalgic smile to my heart.
I grew up having sloppy joes and still love them today.They are easy to make and Cheap.
I always use Manwich but I
Going to try McCormick now. VELVETTA Mac and cheese is yummy
🌟 ⭐️ 💫
So here is our “GO TO” *Sloppy Joe recipe* ... It is from the Pillsbury Cookbook from late 80’s early 90’s.
1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard (in the spice isle)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
8 ounce can tomato sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon white vinegar
6 buns (no sesame seeds)
Brown ground beef, green pepper, and onion. Drain well.
Add additional ingredients.Cover and simmer 15-20 minutes until thoroughly heated. Serve on buns.
IT REALLY IS DELICIOUS!
**From Indianapolis, Indiana**
And sometimes we add Brown sugar BBQ
That's how I make mine
I use a jar of salsa ketchup and brown sugar
Very close to my recipe which is a microwave version.
wow from a Pillsbury cookbook? Usually the brand cookbooks don't include anything that doesn't use a product from their brand.
No matter which one you use dice up yellow onion in ground beef first to cook down the onion and about half clove of garlic a couple minutes before adding sauce…also slice several jumbo potatos into quarters long way and coat in olive oil and salt and bake at 400 for 25 minutes or so.. these are called JoJo potatoes… perfect for Super Bowl time !!💜
It’d probably be a good idea to allow the son to also cook. It’s such a wonderful skill.
I grew up with Mc Cormick’s seasoning packet but when Manwich came out my mother changed brands. I still liked McCormick’s better. 🇺🇸🌵❤️
Sloppy Joes are a part of every American school child's memory. Wednesdays were always "sloppy joe" day in my elementary school cafeteria, and I always looked forward them served up with sliced dill pickles and potato chips (you might call the "crisps"). I still love them to this day! It's one of the meals just about every American kid who attended public school has had. I'm glad you decided to try them. Easy to make, I know they'll be a family favorite.
P.S. All the pre-packaged and canned versions of sloppy joe mix are okay, but you can make a homemade version that's much better. Takes a little more prep time but worth the effort.
And Fridays were pizza!
At elementary school we also had tabasco vinegar. By High school Texas had shut down the tabasco farm, so I had to bring my homemade vinegar.
Such a sweet family with positive posts. Very enjoyable to watch and happy you all like the American food.
Sloppy Joes are definitely an American wonder. 🥰 I like to sprinkle a little shredded cheese on it too.
It's Man-Wich, and McCormick is a national spice brand in the US. My mother would make sloppy Joes every once in a while as a kid. Mostly is she really did not want to cook that much that night.
McCormick is the largest American name brand spice brand...
I grew up eating the McCormick version, but my husband insists that it smells like roadkill, lol. I switched to Manwich for the sake of my marriage and we all love it. They're extra tasty if you lightly toast the buns and add a slice of American cheese!
I agree about the toasted bun because it holds the bread together better when the sauce goes on. I like to put butter on it then toast it in the broiler.
My house growing up it was my dad who loved the McCormick version and my mom loved Manwich lol. If mom was working we got McCormick, if dad was working we got Manwich.
I think it's White Pepper that makes it smell funky.
First off glad yall enjoyed sloppy Joe's. But my family from Atlanta Georgia ate them with a toasted buttered bun. With Dill chip pickles or spears with French fries. We preferred Manwhich brand sloppy Joe's.
Have you ever tried making it from scratch!?
Absolute childhood favorite!
If you ever can, try the Manwich Bold version, it's a bit spicier and has a far better overall flavor. The regular Manwich is great for sure but the Bold version I have found through taste testing to be preferred by folks that like a heavier more full flavor. Great video as always!
Actually, it is kind of funny that you ranked them how you did. In my experience, here in the USA kids tend to prefer Manwich and adults tend to prefer McCormack. Those are definitely the two most popular brands. Of course, there are also variations that they all make, like "spicy", etc.
I think that's probably because Man-Wich is sweeter than McCormick.
Del monte :(
I normally add some shredded cheddar cheese to my sloppy joes. Like once you pile it up on your burger buns, then I’ll sprinkle some on top. Very very good stuff. Sloppy joes is a very nostalgic meal for me. I don’t really eat it anymore as an adult, but I don’t turn it down if a friend or family member offers me one. Good stuff guys! 🤙🏻
I add a slice of cheese to mine.
Pro move but a slice of America cheese with mine, cheddar close second choice.
Yeah, I'll do it every couple of years if I'm in the mood for a simple nostalgic meal, but it's not all that common. It's not as if I dislike it, but if the craving isn't there, I look for something else.
Yes my family adds a slice of American cheese to ours
We add grated parmigian or Romano cheese. Yes, we’re Italian. ☺️
There is a similar thing called “barbecue,” my families recipe is 1lb of ground beef, 1 can of Campbell’s chicken gumbo soup, 1/3 of a cup of brown sugar, 1/3 to 1/2 cup of ketchup, a a teaspoon (ish) of ground mustard seeds, and salt and pepper to taste. Usually this is cooked in a pot, and don’t be afraid to change the recipe to make it taste better, or make it more interesting!🇺🇸
Got a place of my own when I was like 19. Was so excited. Went out and bought a bunch of cans of sloppy joe's. I thought the meat came in the can. You could imagine my surprise when I realized that no meat in those cans!!!! I made sloppy joe's with no meat but it was awesome anyway because I had a river view!
Greetings from a Texan by way of Oklahoma. After watching your blogs for several months I decided to subscribe. I enjoy watching this family. Mom, Dad you are doing such a terrific job raising the kids; so respectful. I applaud y’all. God bless, you are in my prayers and love you guys. Keep the blogs coming.
They are very polite Children,a reflection of there parents.😀❤
Uncle Arthur says hey
I have had sloppy Joes my whole life. We have them for dinner with our favorite sides. Here are some suggestions: dill pickles, corn on the cob, baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw, french fries, fried potatoes, what ever you like.
Mac N Cheese too!
So true
You forgot tater tots Charlene but it's understandable food is only limited by imagination so many different ways to cook different foods steam grill fry bake saute roasting all can be used to make different foods unique and delicious so experiment everyone
Sides I have had with Sloppy Joe’s or even Manwiches are Macaroni & Cheese, Vegetable of your choice, and a small side salad too. Manwiches are always the easiest to make and I would use 85% lean ground beef or higher percentage lean ground beef as you have very little to almost no grease to drain out of the pan.
Sloppy Joe’s are great for a very quick and easy meal to have at home.
Just a tip....If you first toast the hamburger bun it doesn't get soggy as fast from the sloppy filling.
I love your family. This is a refreshing break from the cruel realities of every day life. And seeing you guys react to things that most of us take for granted or don't care to notice here in the US is almost nostalgia-like.
I was thinking the same. Theyre trippin over how good Manwich is and im like thats what you eat when youre broke! Lol. We are so spoiled and dont even realise!
@@allenb7874
LOL You read my mind!!
I didn't see ANYONE else commenting this!!! But it's SO TRUE!! We ate it because we were poor! It was cheap, quick, and easy!
Back in the day it was a few bucks for ground beef, probably .50 for the can of Manwhich, and under a dollar for the buns... So, ya, dinner for 4 for under $10... that's why WE ate it!! 😂😆😆😂
Not to mention hamburger helper, and the dreaded tuna helper when we couldn't afford the ground beef! 😂😆😂
Thanks for your comment for making me not feel alone!! LOL
(Also, I just looked it up and Manwhich has "high fructose corn syrup" which is really bad for you and unfortunately ALOT of companies put that in foods to make them taste good, but keep them cheap, which just causes poor people to eat unhealthy...😢😕😑)
I love tuna helper especially the tuna tetrazzini and all my kids would eat it too!
There’s a “Bold” version of Manwich with more flavor than the original that I bet Nadine might prefer. Also it wasn’t clear if you drained the grease (fat) from the meat before adding the sauce. That can also make a big difference in the flavor - too much grease can drown out the spices.
By the way, Vanilla Coke is sort of hard to find even here in the US, especially over the past 2 years since a lot of ‘specialty’ sodas have been less available during the pandemic.
My wife and I use Jimmy Deans breakfast sausage HOT to spice it up and call them Sloppy Jose's
McCormick spices and coke regular, potato chips. You don't need a mix you can use your own spices. Manwich is not the original sloppy joe mix. It just made it easier one can not a spice mix and tomato paste and/or sauce.
Yes! The Bold is so much better!
@@LJBSullivan The whole expirement was to find out which one of the sloppy Joe MIXES were the best. At the beginning of the video, Sam mentioned why they weren't going to make their own from scratch. 😊
We drink vanilla or cherry vanilla coke on the regular where I'm from. It's easier to find the flavored sofas than the regular versions sometimes
To your taste.
Onion and garlic powder.
Beef mince.
Tomato catsup and BBQ sauce. And some people add a splash of Worcestershire sauce.
Beef broth.
grill the buns with a little margarine or butter
Serve with potato chips or French fries.
For a rounded meal, a side of green beans or sweet corn kernels.
Dear My New Zealand Family,
I have just discovered your videos. I'm already an addict to your videos. You are the cutest and sweetest family... Since I'm very late to the game I'm just now responding to your Sloppy Joe episode. I believe I can clear up some of why the kids liked the Manwich over the McCormicks. Just like all the kid's caned food have high fructose corn syrup. The Manwich is sweeter than what adults like. America has a big problem with this. The only three recommendations I would make is to lightly butter and broil the buns, sliced raw onions, and pickle chips in the sandwich. I'll definitely continue to watch.
Your new friend,
Ken
Root beer, sloppy joes & chips. That’s always a good meal there. Y’all are making my belly growl. I haven’t had a nice sloppy joe in idk how long.
Exactly. Although watching other vloggers. It seems like those outside of the U.S. don't like Root beer very much ? But Yes. Root beer, potato chips, pickle with Sloppy Joe's are my favorite.
@@texasborn2720 I believe root beer is an acquired taste. I’m sure glad that I acquired that taste of root beer 🤣 And btw I can not take my thoughts of sloppy joes. I believe I’ll be making me some real soon with root beer, pickles, and salt & vinegar chips. Oh my!
My mom made hers from scratch,, so I don't know which of those 3 I like best. Think I'll try Mc Cormick 1st.
That's the perfect lunch or dinner.
Yeah you really need the salty chips and the root beer with sloppy joes. I've always eaten a family recipe. Ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar. Mix while cooking the beef to really get it in there.
Sloppy Joe’s with tater tots on the side use to be my favorite meal😍
Yes!!! Always been one of my favorites growing up!!
Mashed potatoes for our family. Mix the dropping in with the taters..really good. I've had them with tater tots..very good too.
I know I’m a bit late to the party, but as a Yank who grew up in the heyday of Sloppy Joes, I thought I would chime in. Canned Manwich is probably the standard because you just open a can and dump it in the pan with the meat. It wins by convenience, alone. McCormick is a very popular dry spice packet company here. They also have seasoning packets for tacos, enchiladas, various gravies, and so forth.
So I'm a vegetarian, and I use meatless burger crumbles made from grains and spices flavored to look and tastes like real ground beef for me. Plus you can mix it up. Try ground turkey, or maybe sausage, or just experiment with different ideas of your own.. You can invent a sloppy joe sandwich of your own.. "The Sloppy Atlanta," maybe? I love your videos and your positivity. I'm glad you like what you see about my country, and I can't wait to come and see yours. Thanks!
I've never actually had a mix, to my knowledge. We always make a homemade recipe-they're actually pretty easy to make!
Same here. So simple & tastes so much better than any packet or canned version.
@@Nik513m I agree
Its as simple as some seasoning, some beef, and some tomato
i agree, but in a pinch, manwich gets the job done.
Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, I didn’t have “Sloppy Joe’s”, I had “hamburg barbecue.”
😂😂😂
Always homemade. Diced onion fried with the hamburger, and equal parts ketchup, mustard, apple cider vinegar, and two parts brown sugar for the sauce.
It was fun to watch you eat those. I haven't had one in many, many years. Just FYI, McCormick is probably the biggest spice company in the US. Just about every spice in my kitchen cabinet is McCormick. So it doesn't surprise me that they would make a good spice mix for sloppy joes.
So im American and i Love watching you guys so much, i have many friends in NZ. have even thought about retireing there. you guys are fun and Americans love there ego stroked... good on ya.
I always make it from scratch. The sauce is mostly made from stuff that I already have in the pantry and fridge anyways. Tomato paste/sauce and crushed tomatoes, finely-chopped and sautéed vegetables (onion, carrot, garlic, orange bell pepper, celery), yellow mustard, brown sugar, butter, bone broth, splash of red wine and/or vinegar, pinch or two of white sugar, Worcestershire, and various spices including but not limited to salt, black pepper, garlic and onion powder, basil, smoked paprika, ground coriander seed, ground mustard, and even a dash or two of clove. Sometimes I even add a shake or two of MSG because flavor bomb. Just let it reduce until the sauce is relatively thick and you've got yourself a delicious meal.
*In my family we start with Manwich as a base and we add dark chili powder & paprika to it, we also cook it with finely diced onion (or sauté on the side and then add), and we always brown our ground beef (minced meat) with HEAVY cumin spice in it... no such thing as too much cumin in ground beef. Then combine all that for the best and most out-of-this-world Sloppy Joe EVER. *Turn Atlanta loose on that job and let her work her magic - she'll knock it out of the park!
The wife does her own sauce. Ketchup mustard onions brown sugar. Turns out great
Much better than the can or pack.
@@sashleymo4 so true. You can tweak it to how you like it too
@@richelliott9320 I personally don’t like the canned manwich. I like a bit of sweet baby Ray’s.
@@sashleymo4 yum
This is the best recipe, IMO. Sometimes add a bit of garlic salt. Works great as taco meat or nacho meat as well.
McCormack is the supreme spice company in America. You all have great taste ! What a cool family.
I add mixed veggies to bulk up the sloppy joes. Can also make vegitarian ones using coursely chopped chickpeas. Serve on burger buns or bread. Make extra thick and stuff into native American frybread batter and deep fry for a real American treat 😁❤
It's really fun to watch someone eat a sloppy joe for the first time, after eating it all my life. Thank for staying true to the classic style.
Back in the 50's Sloppy Joes included finely minced onions, green pepper and celery which were coked along with the meat. Worschestershire Sauce was also included. Manwich has a lot of vinegar which I think is a bit overpowering. So I make it from scratch. With the veggies added it was really a meal.
Blessings on your heads!
@Jane Daves - yes indeed! That’s the way my Mom made it. I too find the Manwich overpowering and only use that if I don’t want to go to the trouble of making it Mom’s way! 😉
And the buns should be warmed so they’re soft and not cold.
Basic Sloppy Joe Recipe: Add diced onions to ground beef in a pan and cook. Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. For a little more flavor, add some Worcestershire sauce. Once the meat is cooked, add ketchup to coat the meat, then add a little mustard and mix. Add to a toasted onion hamburger bun. Simple with everyday ingredients, you have where you are.
My friend makes homemade sloppy joe. Saute onions and green peppers, then add the ground beef and ketchup. It tastes so good!
Heinz 57.
Yeah I'm sorry but I'm just going to have to say sloppy joes I don't care who make the ingredients or you know as long as it's got beef and a sloppy joe ingredients in it sloppy joes
Here's another American classic simple grilled cheese with tomato soup real basic
Skip the ketchup and add a can of Ro-Tel.
I just found this channel. I like how the kids are treated seriously, like adults, with the same sense of fun people of all ages have. The kids are 'in the club', I guess it's the experience of a happy family. Not everyone has seen this, not me, much!
Oh my goodness, manwich is definitely my favorite. I am with the kids. Yes, chips are a must for cleanup. I also like cheese on it for a difference
Great photo in the background!
I haven’t had Sloppy Joe’s in years but after watching this video I added it to my grocery list.
