Neat Sloppy Joes

Ingredients

• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 0.5 cups chopped onion
• 1 can condensed tomato soup , 10.75 ounce
• 0.25 cups ketchup
• 0.25 cups packed brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1.5 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
• 8 hamburgers buns , toasted if desired

Instructions

1. 1

   Cook ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until evenly browned, stirring to crumble. I like to use a potato masher to even out the lumps. Add celery and onion, cover and cook until tender and translucent, about 5 minutes. Drain off any grease.

2. 2

   Stir in (undiluted) tomato soup, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce; season with salt and garlic powder. Heat over low heat until simmering; simmer until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently to prevent burning on the bottom.

3. 3

   Spoon beef mixture on buns; serve.
