Week 4 Results - Sloppy Janes

Happy Tummy - I don't like my sloppy joes to be too tomato-y, so I only used 1 cup total of sauce instead of 1.75 cups, or whatever it is the recipe calls for. Whenever I make these, I always enjoy them more on the second day, maybe because the flavors have had time to settle. When I go down south for Christmas, I want to pick up a bottle of Dale's Seasoning, so I can try to make turkey burgers with that.
