I'm not a fan of ground beef, but I like the flavor of sloppy joes. This recipe incorporates the flavor of the classic sandwich with the lean cut of flank steak and the ease of a slow cooker.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 ½ pounds beef flank steak

  • 1 tablespoon steak seasoning (such as Montreal Steak Seasoning®)

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 1 small red bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 cups tomato sauce

  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste

  • 6 hamburger buns, split and toasted

Directions

  1. Sprinkle the beef flank steak with steak seasoning on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until the oil shimmers, and place the flank steak into the hot oil. Quickly brown the steak on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Set the beef aside.

  2. Stir brown sugar, onion, red bell pepper, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, tomato sauce, and tomato paste together in a slow cooker until the brown sugar dissolves. Place the flank steak into the slow cooker, immersing it in the sauce. Set the cooker on on High and cook 4 hours, or set on Low and cook 8 hours.

  3. To serve, shred the meat with 2 forks, or remove the meat, chop, and return to the sauce. Toast buns, and serve the sloppied steak on the toasted buns.
