Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat
Add the finely diced yellow onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3-5 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute
Pour in beef broth, ketchup, yellow mustard, and white vinegar. Stir to combine. Sprinkle in onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally
While the mixture simmers, prepare the Big Mac Special Sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, sweet pickle relish, ketchup, yellow mustard, white vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and optional sugar until smooth
To assemble, toast the sesame seed buns, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each bottom half, spoon the hot sloppy joe mixture over the cheese, add shredded lettuce, dill pickle slices, and top with Big Mac Special Sauce. Place the top bun on and serve immediately

Notes

For a spicier option, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the meat mixture or special sauce.

Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
