I think I'm probably the minority in that I don't like my sloppy joe's sweet. :) I'm glad you adapted it to your liking!

I found the mixture to be a little bitter. After 50+ years cooking, I decided to “doctor” them a little. I added a tablespoon of sugar, several thin strips, chopped fine, red, yellow and orange peppers, a little paprika and a little pepper. It helped.

One definite bonus is without my additions, the recipe is very easy to assemble. Also everyone’s taste is different. My recommendation would be to follow the recipe as posted, if not to your liking, make it your own by adding what your family likes!

Cumin would be a great substitution!

I cant wait to make these today!!! I will have to do some switching and adjusting of two ingredients as my hubby and i are not huge fans of sage or mustard. But I need a recipe with no peppers as we are out and i cant get to the store til tomorrow and i need to get the ground beef cooked as its defrosted on day 2 now. Eek! I will be using 2 TBLSP of Ground Cumin and 1/2 Teaspon of mustard. Cumin to replace the sage but switching the amount with the mustard 🙃 Also defintely adding honey per your suggestion! Yum!

@Margaret, try Cumin. I'm making these for my daughter and SIL tonight as i have no peppers in the house and cant get to the store until tomorrow.
But when i read the ingredients to the recipe i instantly thought what I'd substitute the sage for, as I'm not a fan of this spice. So that's what I'm gonna do! I love Cumin (it's not spicey) in my sloppy joes and I use it in them all the time! Yum! 😋
