Recipe: Steakhouse Burger Sloppy Joes

Ingredients:

• 1 cup chicken broth (from a 32-oz carton)
• 2 tablespoons steak sauce
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 lb ground beef
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 8 oz mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1 cup white onion, coarsely chopped (from 1 small onion)
• 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 8 regular-size burger buns, toasted if desired
• 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (2 oz)

Instructions:

1. In a medium bowl, mix the chicken broth, steak sauce, and Dijon mustard. Set this aside, as it will become the flavorful liquid base for your Sloppy Joe mixture.
2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently until it’s browned. Once the beef is fully cooked, drain the excess fat and set the beef aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the butter to any remaining drippings. Stir in the mushrooms, onions, and Montreal steak seasoning. Cook for about 7 to 8 minutes until the onions become translucent and the mushrooms are nicely browned.
4. Sprinkle the flour over the cooked vegetables and continue cooking for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the flour browns and gives off a nutty aroma. This step is key to thickening the sauce.
5. Return the ground beef to the pan, and pour in the broth mixture you set aside earlier. Stir everything together and bring it back to a simmer. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables.
6. To assemble, place about 1/3 cup of the beef mixture onto the bottom half of each burger bun. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top of the beef, then add the top bun. Toast the buns beforehand if desired.

Steakhouse Burger Sloppy Joes are more than just a meal—they’re a fun way to bring the flavors of a classic burger into your kitchen with minimal effort.
