Comments:
We made these sloppy joes using Arnold sandwich thins rather than regular rolls. It worked, kind of. Since they're so flat a lot of the filling fell out, although I suppose that's why they're call "sloppy." Anywho, perhaps not the best plan. The filling itself was very good. The 30 minutes it spends simmering really concentrate all the flavors and kind of caramelize the meat a little.
