Sloppy Joes - Pretty Darn Good

[YuccaFlatsRanch]

Didn't have any mix last night so I made it from scratch with what I had:

1 lb hamburger ( a little over is OK too)
1/2 cup onion
1/4 cup canned diced green chile's (we always have some of these left over in the fridge)
1 tsp minced garlic
1/2 can tomato paste
1/2 cup Ketchup
1/2 cup Heinz chili sauce (the stuff you add horseradish to to make seafood cocktail sauce)
1 TBS yellow Mustard
1 TBS brown sugar.

Sweat the onions and brown the burger with them. Add other ingredients and heat for serving.

you make cocktail sauce out of chili sauce?

Without doubt - try it. Even the cooking shows show it made that way.
