Equipment

  • Mixing spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Griddle or grill pan
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper finely chopped
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 large flour tortillas
  • Non-stick cooking spray or butter for grilling

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  • Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Assemble the Burritos:
  • Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface.
  • Spoon a generous amount of the Sloppy Joe mixture onto the center of each tortilla.
  • Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up from the bottom to create a burrito.
  • Grill the Burritos:
  • Heat a griddle or grill pan over medium heat and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
  • Place the burritos seam-side down on the griddle. Grill until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side, using a spatula to flip them carefully.
  • Serve:
  • Cut the burritos in half if desired and serve warm.
