Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, dijon mustard, worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, red wine vinegar and tomato sauce. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large heavy bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add onion and cook, stirring as needed, for 5 minutes or until translucent.
Add ground meat of choice and cook until browned through, breaking it up with a spatula/spoon as it cooks.
Add chili powder, crushed red pepper, salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes more and then add the ketchup mixture, stirring to evenly coat the meat. Simmer for 5 minutes more, or until thickened.
While sauce thickens, lightly toast your buns under the oven broiler, cut side up, for 2 minutes.
Divide sloppy joe mixture evenly among toasted buns and serve immediately!
