Sloppy Joe Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Yum

May 15, 2015 by Jodi + 129 Comments

It’s sloppy joe meets grilled cheese and it’s a match made in heaven! These Sloppy Joe Grilled Cheese Sandwiches are just plain ridiculous! You’re going to be hooked after one bite!

Life is so crazy at our house right now with baseball which explains the no post on Wednesday, sorry.  I had good intentions, but it just didn’t happen.  On top of games every night, I am the league secretary and I do all the shopping for our snack shacks.  So right now the baseball field and Sam’s Club are where I seem to be spending waaay too much time.

Dinner time for us is 4:00 right now.  I know, kind of early, but it’s that or eat hot dogs at the baseball game every night.  

As much as I love a good grilled hot dog, eating boiled ones from the snack shack, five nights a week, just doesn’t sound all that fun.

I’m all over quick and easy meals right now and these Sloppy Joe Grilled Cheese Sandwiches are exactly that.  I actually posted these about three years ago, but these amazing sandwiches have possibly gotten lost amidst all the other recipes and they definitely deserve a repost with some updated pictures. They are oldies, but goodies for sure!

I  forgot how ridiculously delicious these babies are.  Apparently so did my boys based on the words coming out of their mouths as they were inhaling these sandwiches and licking their fingers (they are kind of messy you know, hence the name “sloppy grilled cheese). Taylor informed me that these are probably his one of his favorite “quick meals” that I make. They really are pretty fabulous and kind of hard to stop eating.

Just promise me that you will use Texas Toast bread for these (or the really thick cut loaf of French Bread that Costco sells works great too). The bread takes these sandwiches to a whole new level.  

You really, really need these sandwiches in your life.

    Jodi, oh my goodness, these were delicious. Made them for dinner last night and we gobbled them up. I love how the meat was just a little sweet. The grilled bread took it over the top. I should have doubled the recipe as my two teenage boys and my husband just loved them. I bet if I doubled it, the meat would reheat the next day for another day of these sandwiches. Thanks for a delicious post!!!

    These really look Yummy. But what is the calorie count for each sandwich?? I’m on a restricted diet for health reasons. I know my husband would be in 7th heaven with these. I would love to try them myself, but not sure if I can eat them. I’m getting tired of cooking food for everyone else but I can’t eat the same food with them.

        But it is a LOT of web searching.
        Yet, I will likely do the search to see IF I can eat them.
        I will likely make them anyway for my family & grandkids.
        Thanks for getting back to me.

      It would depend on the type and brands of food you use(low calorie, low fat, ect). You can find a relative easy recipe calorie counter at myfitnesspal (googling it should send you to the website). I have the app I use and it helps a lot.

        It was good. A little bit of heat, good flavor. Next time I will cut down on the brown sugar. To cut down the sweetness I sprinkled on some dark cocoa powder. So, I ended up with a different recipe this time, but it was delicious.

    I would try mixing the cheese in with the meat and as it grills and melts the cheese would help hold all that good meat together – maybe a little less sloppy – lol

    If you have a panini press much easier since you don’t have to flip the sandwich. If no panini press, just place a smaller skillet on top of the top slice of buttered bread and weight it with a couple of canned soups.

        Think I may of found a remedy to your squishing concerns,I watched an episode of Jamie Oliver on tv with his grilled cheese he sprinkled cheese on the pan before the sandwich then as it cooked pulled the surrounding cheese up over making it a sealed sandwich flipping it only seals the deal lol

    Saw this post on Pinterest today and it sounded so good I had to try it. It was delicious and easy although I cheated and used Sweet Baby Rays (another commenter’s suggestion) instead of ketchup and brown sugar since I was out of ketchup. I also only had Dijon mustard, but all else was the same. Made this with French bread and Smoked Gouda cheese I needed to use up. It was the bomb and I made enough to make some for my husband when he gets back in town. Thanks for a great and filling sandwhich that I won’t have to drag around a recipe to make!

    I made these today for my self (using Ezekiel bread) and for my teen son…. simply amazing! He said quote “This is the bomb”. I did not use the brown sugar cuz, in my opinion, it’s for baking (I don’t like sweet taste in my regular food, nor sweet & sour. Sweet=dessert) Anyway, I saved the recipe!!! 🙂

    Great idea! I’ll use ground turkey breast, and a Mexican style lite shredded cheese. I use light mayo instead of butter on my bread for grilled cheese. But this sloppy joe in the middle idea is awesome! Never would have thought of it. I just cook for me, so will probably make just one. Can’t want. It’s on my list of things to make this week.

    What kind of Texas toast are you using for these? The frozen Texas toast or something different?

      Deanna, I just buy a loaf of “texas toast” bread down the bread aisle at the grocery store. It’s easy to find at any grocery store.

    Made these several weeks ago and they were a hit. Couldn’t find any plain Texas Toast so went the Garlic Texas Toast. Added another dimension to this recipe. My husband now wants them once a week!!!

      Hi Sara! That sounds delicious, I’ll have to try using the garlic toast. The Texas Toast bread is just in the bread aisle right there along with all the other breads. So happy to hear you loved these. Thanks for letting me know.

    Just made this for my family and we loved it too! Way better than Manwich (although I added Polynesian sauce to the mix and then Dave’s Insanity to mine). My wife has always hated sloppy joes but she likes them now. (It’s funny because she shared this with me). Thank you for the recipe.

      So happy to hear you loved these Adam. Thanks for letting me know and I have to agree about the better than Manwich thing! I’m glad these converted your wife over to a sloppy joe lover now. Take care.

    These were freaking awesome! I added 1 tsp. of cider vinegar to the meat mixture, as we like a little tang. I also added some chopped, roasted and peeled Hatch Green Chile to the mix…it’s green chile time here in El Paso, Tx. Gobbled these up like crazy!

    Thank you for this idea I do make my sloppy joe meat like yours except add green pepper and celery but did what you said and these are wonderful, wish I had leftovers for tomorrow. I will try chicken or turkey for when my California family comes. Anyone who know which tastes the best? Again thank you!!

    I don’t know why, but i’m thinking Ground Beef, Onions, Mushrooms, and either provolone or white american or whiz. Grilled Sloppy Philly.
