Instructions
In a large saucepan, brown the lamb mince in oil and butter with onion, allspice, paprika, salt, pepper, garlic and ginger on medium heat.
Drain any extra liquid and sprinkle in flour, stir well until all the meat is coated. A scrap of fat left in the pan after draining will cling to the flour and eliminate any floury taste.
Add green pepper and all the wet ingredients including Worcestershire sauce and tomato sauce, tomato paste, BBQ sauce, honey, vinegar and sriracha. Stir well to mix.
Add 1/2 a cup of water, bring the stew to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and cook until thickened about 10-15 minutes. Taste and adjust salt pepper and don’t forget to fish out the bay leaf.
Spoon the mixture on toasted brioche buns on top of a salad leave and then place a cheese slice and pickled onion slices on top. Serve hot with a side helping of fries and coleslaw.

Notes
Mmmm. I love Sloppy Joes with coleslaw and potato fries, especially when they’re served on brioche buns! That is just a match made in heaven.We had the craving for these for days..and when I made them, man…….they disappeared in no time! If you’re in need to feed a crowd, these Sloppy Joes are the crowd pleasers!! Ridiculously good-looking, messy, sweet, spicy and super easy to make.I would like to say for the record that I’m just an old carnivore when it comes to burgers! My burgers have to be meaty, cheesy and with a fresh and tangy crunch!It’s a super tasty and really quick-to-cook family dinner! It also happens to be a great meal kit to throw together, if you have it all in the fridge, your dinner can be on the table in under 45 minutes!So here is my personal spin on this American Classic!
