Sloppy Joe Recipe with a Thick, Never-Runny Sauce

Canned sloppy joe sauce is mostly sugar, and it shows: the filling goes sweet and thin, then slides straight out the back of the bun. The from-scratch version takes ten extra minutes and fixes both problems at once. You control the sugar, and you simmer the sauce down until it grips the meat instead of pooling on the plate.
