Did you know there’s a sloppy jane?
Well, now you do. And in about one second, I can tell you the difference between sloppy joes and sloppy janes.
Sloppy joes – the comfort food sandwich made of ground beef in a semi-spicy tomato/barbecue sauce, served on a bun.
Oddly, I could not find any write-ups on sloppy janes – if you know of one, please share in the comments!
However, I looked at many sloppy jane recipes: The Food Network, Hungry Girl, and Cooking Channel, to name a few – although I found quite a bit more.
The difference is using ground turkey instead of ground beef. That’s it!
The other ingredients appear to be the same or similar: tomato sauce/ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic/garlic powder, onion/onion powder, bell peppers, etc.
The message is clear: Men eat beef; women eat turkey.
I think it’s just any beef alternative. This place in Denver makes great Sloppy Janes, and they’re vegan.
