Comforting French Onion Beef Sloppy Joes with Melted Cheese

Ingredients

Scale

Beef Filling

  • 1 lb ground beef

  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup beef broth

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • Salt to taste

 Assembling

  • 4 sandwich buns or brioche buns

  • 4 slices provolone or Swiss cheese

  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Caramelize the Onions

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook slowly for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown.

Cook the Ground Beef

Add the ground beef to the skillet with the onions. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess grease if needed.

Add the Sauce

Stir in garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened.

Melt the Cheese

Spoon the beef mixture onto the buns and top each with a slice of cheese. Cover the skillet briefly or place under the broiler until the cheese melts.

 Serve

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot. Pair with fries, chips, or a simple salad.
