For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the beef while browning. Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar to taste. If you like a spicier Sloppy Joe, add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes. Toasting the buns helps prevent them from becoming soggy. Serve with a side of coleslaw or potato salad for a complete meal.
