Sloppy Joes


I had a bad sloppy joe recipe experience the other day.  The recipe I was referencing had too many fancy ingredients and the mixture came out bitter.  Chef Patrick graciously shared his Sloppy Joe recipe with me and I have to say, it was yummy good.  Perfect texture and flavor -- hope you'll give it a try.  
 **Tip:  After grilling the buns, spread a thin layer of veganaise on both sides of bun to keep from getting soggy.
