Instructions

  • In a large skillet preheated to medium-high heat, add the butter, followed by the onion, garlic sauce, ginger, garlic clove, salt, and pepper.
  • Saute the veggies, stirring often until they are softened, or about 5 minutes.
  • Next, add the ground pork to the skillet, breaking up the pork with a wooden spoon. Cook the pork until it is no longer pink, or for about 6 minutes.
  • Then stir in the hoisin, soy sauce, tomatoes and lime juice.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil and then a simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, or until sauce has thickened.
  • Once the sauce is at your desired consistency, ladle some of the sloppy joe mixture on top of a brioche bun bottom.
  • To give the sloppy joe some crunch, top it with raw broccoli slaw and/or Napa cabbage and top it with the remaining bun.
  • Repeat the process until all the sloppy joes have been assembled.
