Dr. Pepper Barbecue Sloppy Joes

 Dr. Pepper Barbecue Sloppy Joes:

Ingredients

• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup diced onion
• 2 cups Dr. Pepper Barbecue Sauce

Instructions

1. Cook the beef
   In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until it starts to brown, breaking it apart as it cooks.
2. Add seasoning & onion
   Stir in the diced onion, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5–7 minutes, until the onion becomes soft and the beef is fully browned. Drain excess fat if needed.
3. Add the sauce
   Pour in the Dr. Pepper Barbecue Sauce and mix well so everything is fully coated.
4. Simmer
   Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 10–15 minutes. This helps the flavors blend and the sauce thicken slightly.
5. Serve
   Spoon the mixture onto toasted burger buns or slider rolls. You can add pickles, coleslaw, or melted cheese if you like extra flavor.

Result: sweet, smoky, and tangy sloppy joes with a deep barbecue kick from the Dr. Pepper sauce.
