I am cycling through the freezer and this ground elk is from earlier in the year. I thought I would do something different with it so I made Sloppy Joes.. with elk meat. After the copious amounts of doctored homemade ketchup, I really can't tell what I was thinking when I started this recipe. It's food and I'm hungry. Let's eat!
Ingredients
1 lb ground elk meat
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 c homemade ketchup, plus more for reheating
garlic powder, to taste
sea salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
In a large skillet, heat oil and add garlic. Fry the garlic a bit until lightly golden brown then add the peppers. Stir it around some more. Add the meat and the remainder of the ingredients. You should always be tasting this (after the meat has cooked).
The consistency should be about the same as spaghetti sauce, runny enough to be poured on top of bread, but not too liquidy to seep right through it. This can also be eaten on top of rice or other non-rice cooked grains.
