Sloppy-Joe Sliders

Sloppy-Joe Sliders
Martha Stewart

Prep: 15 minutes Total: 30 minutes

With leaner ground sirloin, the sliders have less fat and the rolls won't get soggy.

Ingredients

* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 large onion, finely chopped
* 2 garlic cloves, minced
* Coarse salt and ground pepper
* 3/4 pound ground beef sirloin
* 1 can (14 1/2 ounces) tomato puree
* 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
* 1 1/2 teaspoons dark-brown sugar
* 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
* 16 party-size potato rolls


Directions

1. Heat oil over medium in a large saucepan. Add onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes.
2. Add beef, and cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 4 to 5 minutes. Add tomato puree, mustard powder, sugar, and vinegar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. (To store, refrigerate, up to 2 days.) Serve warm on rolls.
