Sloppy Joe Sliders

1 tablespoon olive oil


1 large onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

Coarse salt and ground pepper

3/4 pound ground beef sirloin

1 can (14 1/2 ounces) tomato puree

1/2 teaspoon mustard powder

1 1/2 teaspoons dark-brown sugar

1 tablespoon cider vinegar

16 party-size potato rolls

Directions

Heat oil over medium in a large saucepan. Add onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes.

Add beef, and cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 4 to 5 minutes. Add tomato puree, mustard powder, sugar, and vinegar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. (To store, refrigerate, up to 2 days.) Serve warm on rolls.
