Freezer Sloppy Joe Recipe

Freezer Sloppy Joes Recipe

  • 1 pound lean ground beef

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard

  • 3/4 cup ketchup

  • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar

  • 1 tsp. onion powser

  • salt to taste

  • ground black pepper to taste


  • Brown ground beef and drain off fat.  Add remaining ingredients and stir well.  Package in quart size freezer bag.

    Notes:  This recipe lends itself well to being doubled or tripled.  I have actually made this in 10 lb. batches for parties.   If you press the meat flat in the freezer bags and indent with your hands you can break off a chunk without thawing the whole bag.  Another option is to scoop into buns and wrap individually for quick meals on the go.
