Sloppy Joes are an American recipe, enjoyed by both old and young alike. They are very popular throughout the country, although they are known by are number of other names in some parts of the United States - "wimpies" in the Northeast, "yip yips" in parts of Illinois, "slushburgers" in parts of the mid West and so forth. However, unlike some other kinds of American sandwiches (hamburgers, cheeseburgers, club sandwiches, etc.), they are not widely known or eaten outside the United States (perhaps introducing the rest of the world to sloppy Joes is an opportunity for a budding entrepreneurs in the catering industry?).
Sloppy Joes are made from ground beef and onions that are cooked together in a sweet ketchup sauce. This beef and onion mixture is then served on top of a burger bun or toast, either as a closed sandwich, or just as a topping. It is possible to try to pick this up and eat it as sandwich, just like you would a hamburger, but as you can imagine, if you try, it can very quickly get rather messy - in fact, you would not be surprised if you spilled some of the filling on your shirt and become a "Sloppy Joe" yourself!
From a cook's point of view, preparing a sloppy Joe is very easy and uses ordinary everyday ingredients that everybody either already has, or can get from the local supermarket. Sloppy Joes are also quick to make, and go well with some salad or coleslaw as the accompaniment
