Good ole fashion sloppy joes - granny recipe

As requested.

I made this with chopped smoked turkey, but you can make it with any kind of meat. The turkey came out great. Below is the recipe unchanged, but I usually add a small amount of chili powder and hot sauce.


1/4 cup butter
1 lb ground sirloin
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 tsp fresh chopped garlic
1/8 tsp pepper
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp basil
2 TBS flour
1 cup evaporated milk
8 oz can tomato sauce

Melt butter and brown ground beef, green pepper, onion, garlic, herbs, salt and pepper. Drain when done. Add flour and stir then add milk and cook until thick. Then add tomato sauce and cook until starting the brown. Stir often.
Enjoy!
