Today we ask the age old question… will it Sloppy Joe?? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning! I’ve been meaning to ask you, how often do you like to get sloppy? You’ve been meaning to ask me? I’ve been meaning to ask you. Did you write it in your notes? I’ve been waiting for an opportunity. Well, I’m glad that you asked. You know, I’m a neat freak, so for me, I don’t know. I don’t ever like to get sloppy. The only place that’s worthy of sloppiness is the Joe. Ah, yeah, the sloppy Joe. I was hoping that you would say that. Sloppy Joes, they’re sweet, savory, delicious masses. Uh huh. And they’re so good that no one has really changed the recipe until today. It’s time for. Well, it. Sloppy Joe. Now, for anyone who may not know, a sloppy Joe is traditionally a sandwich consisting of ground beef, onions, tomato sauce or ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and other seasonings served on a hamburger bun. Your mom made a lot of these. She did? You were telling them? I loved them. It was one of my favorite meals. I did not have a lot of sloppy joes. except when the lunch ladies made them. I like the lunch lady sloppy Joe. Not as good as moms. Hopefully. These are better. We’re taking the tradition. We’re breaking it up into tiny little pieces. Yes. Case in point, you ever been to the olive garden, enjoying a nice shrimp Alfredo and think to yourself, man, this is some good italian food. If only I could add a big helping of american sloppiness. Well, we’ve made that fantasy a reality with. When you’re here, you’re sloppy. Nicole, what did you do? Hey, so we got some ground shrimp, we got a ton of onions, we got peppers, we got garlic, we cooked it all up in some Alfredo sauce. We added some parmesan cheese, a hefty spoonful of parsley, and lots of garlic butter. I would usually just do these open face, but I recognize. I recognize the. Oh, really? Well, that’s normal. This way. Yeah, open face is not. It’s too sloppy, man. Okay, I might make some slop over here. We might have to clean it up. There I go. I did it. I did it again. There you go. Oh, thank you. I won’t be looking at that. I mean, ground shrimp. Is that something you can buy or something you did? It’s something you can buy… I actually ground it with my hands. Oh, yeah, it’s hand ground. Well, I used a knife and I chopped it into itty bitty pieces, but. Oh, I thought you liked your nails or something. Mm mm. That’s really tasty. That is tasty. Now, you love a good shrimp burger already. This might be better than a shrimp burger. Well, the pieces of shrimp and the texture is something I’m having to get used to here, because this is. Well, it’s slop, but isn’t that the point? Yeah, I’ll take another bite. I took a few bites. I liked it a lot. It tastes very, very good. Mmm. This might be a way to make olive garden even less classy, which is… something they might be interested in. Like, what is a garden that’s less classy? Is that just a field? A rock garden? That’s actually pretty classy. I think it’s just this is at the olive field. and I think it’s pretty good. Great. I would almost say, yeah. Olive garden. Shrimp Alfredo. Will it sloppy Joe? Yes! We wanted to create a caffeinated sloppy joe. Yep. And so we looked to vietnamese coffee. Yes, we did. Hot water is passed through super strong, dark, and bitter coffee grounds and dripped directly onto condensed milk. In vietnamese coffee, you mix it together, you get a bittersweet taste that can keep you up for days. Can a sloppy doe do the same? Presenting? Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my sloppy Joe. Nicole. Nicole, what did you do? I call this one the coffee sloppy. Oh, you do? You got your own name for it. So we took some. We took the coffee grounds, we poured them through hot water, and we put it directly on the beef. We cooked it with some onions and some peppers. There’s some Worcestershire in there. There’s a heavy, heavy pour of condensed milk and then some coffee grounds on the top. We made homemade condensed milk buns as well, with a little coffee wash over the top. Oh, wow… So there’s gonna be some sweetness in here. Now, what is the ratio, you know, when you do. In fact, I recently had a bite of someone’s steak that they were eating that was one of those coffee rubbed, rubbed steak, and it was very good. So this is sort of a similar approach in flavor mixing. The ratios might be a wee bit different. More coffee. Yeah. Keep an open mind when you take a bite. Yeah. Is it gonna crunch like I’m eating coffee grounds is what I’m curious about. It’s not gonna be that crunchy. It looks very sloppy Joe ish, which I like. How’d you get that line so pretty? more so than the truth? It’s talent. Boo. Dink it and wake it up. Yeah. I was trying to clear my throat as a question… Did you notice that? Just how I like my coffee… Chewy. It’s still beefy, which is helping me. but it is so “coffee-ily” done. The first taste is really good. Mm hmm. And then you start wishing that there was a little less coffee. But that wish does not come true. Yeah. I don’t know if I could eat the whole thing. How’s the bun? The bun looks so so good. The bun is very, very nice. I know it. And it’s a little. I am going men for another bite, though. It’s tacky. You know what I’m saying? It’s got that coffee tack. What’s the spice in there? There’s a little bit of Worcestershire sauce. That might be what you’re tasting. Oh, it’s strong. I like that. Look, I don’t know. I’m kind of on the fence about this one. I know it’s tough. It’s tough… We took a second bite. Do you need to eat a whole sloppy Joe in order to like it? Your bites are so little, man. What happened? Well, they’re thinking bites. I keep going back. I’m actually starting to like it a lot. I mean, what I like to get caffeinated in the middle of the day. This would be a good lunch… Don’t have to worry about drinking the coffee. Two for one. Mission accomplished. It does taste good. It’s getting better. It’s getting better. Vietnamese coffee. Will it, sloppy Joe? Yes! you may have heard the rumblings of what happened this past Friday… Good Mythical Evening. Scary, sexy, stupid happened. And if you didn’t see it, or if you saw it and you want to relive it, well, good mythical evening is now available on demand for a limited time only. Go over to goodmythicalevening.com to relive the sexy, scary, stupid night over and over again for that limited time, if you dare. Okay. We’ve had some inspiration from Italy. And Vietnam. We’ve got sloppy Joe so far. But why don’t we keep heading east on our sloppy little journey all the way to the land down under? What do you get when you marry Aussie food to the sloppy Joe? Well, you get the sloppy joey. Do you think that we decided to do this by starting… with sloppy Joey and then working backwards? Maybe. I certainly hope so. Nicole, what did you do? Are you guys cool if I workshop my australian accent with you guys right now? Oh, yes. All right, mates, today we have fairy bread buns. We got some ground beef, onion, peppers, chopped up musticks, vegemite tomato sauce. And we deglazed it all with Foster’s beer. Hey, that’s pretty good. Hey, from. I mean, better than we can do. Musk stick. Yeah, there’s. It’s like this weird pink candy that has musk essence in it. It’s quite offensive, but I think it might work in this. Cause, you know, it just kind of melts in and adds this perfumey deliciousness that works really well with the vegemite. Oh, no. Try it. Musk stick was my nickname in high school. Okay. Oh, they’re pink. Oh, they are. Let’s have it. Okay. You also said dairy bread vegemite, so, I mean, vegemite. It packs such a punch. It does. It really does. It’s an intense flavor. You can’t miss it. So far, you’ve been knocking our socks off. Oh, that’s the feel of the fairy bread. I know. It’s like walking on the bottom of. Keep going. The great barrier reef That is a big bite, man. It’s crunchy. That beef has got some. The beef does a lot of heavy lifting, you know? Am I getting sticked with the musk?.. What’s happening in my mouth? Oh, it’s the vegemite. The vegemite is good, though. I don’t like it. but I feel like. It’S the right amount. Like, they love it. They put it on everything. Well, it’s salty, and I guess you can get used to it. I’m trying to change my face. Oh, let me try. I like the way it mixes with the beef flavor. Incidentally, this is. It’s not bad. In Australia, a sloppy joe is what they call a pullover fleece or track suit jumper. Wonder why. Mm mm. Do you know that? So they’re probably really confused right now… They keep waiting for us to put on a track suit the whole time. So a Joe, that’s not sloppy. What is that? Just a shirt? Probably just a suit. A tux. A tux. A tux. That’s a. Okay, this is growing on me. Once I got used to the… Do we have a fork or a spoon? vegemite in this. I just want to get some of this beef. Just use your finger. That’s too sloppy. Come on. It’s a sloppy dough but I have to keep wiping my hands every time. Thank you. A big spoon. Thank you for the serving spoon. This is not great, but it’s a fun gimmick. I think. I just really like ground beef, you know? I just feel like my face keeps doing this. It scrunches, and I can’t help it. I’m saying this is a no. This is a no for me. This is so much better than I thought it was gonna be. I feel like we might have a mixed result here. Is that a possibility? We can do that every once in a while, right? It is a bit sloppy Australian food. Will it? Sloppy Joe? Yes! No! Last stop, China. Original land of chili crisp. Of course, chili crisp. The very trendy condiment made with chili oil and peppers, spices, and other things like garlic and onions. Once you start adding this stuff to your foods, you can’t stop. I mean, I’m even hooked on it. You are? And it’s spicy, but something about it. It’s oily. Oh, it’s crunchy. It’s chili inside. It’s got all the things. But what if your food was chili crisp? We present sloppy spice. Wow. Nicole, this is thick. What did you do? I made a really spicy sloppy Joe. We made… chili crisp buns. We made a mix of beef and just chili crisp. There’s no other flavor in there other than beef and chili crisp. And then I added a big heaping spoonful of chili crisp on top as well. Yes, I see that. This looks incredible. This bun looks incredible. This could be a gift to someone you hate… No, no, no. I feel like this could be good. Oh, okay. Yeah, I’m going for it. A gift to us from you. Oh, okay, cool. I’m going for it. You’re really making us feel like you don’t think it’s good. But I. It can’t be that spicy. No, no, no. You immediately get that taste. Okay. And it is hot. It can be that spicy. It’s hot. It’s spicy. Oh, it’s so good, though, Nicole. But the taste is good. Well, it hurts. It’s a good hurt. It’s hurting my mouth in places that normally don’t hurt. Ay, ay, ay. Found a new spot in my mouth. Something about the sloppiness. Phew. I want more. I want more. Ooh. It has made it. The crunch is a little hidden. Is it the beef that’s made the crunch hidden? The beef might have made the crunch hidden, yes… Very astute. Has the beef made the crunch hidden? It’s burning my tummy… Malicious. That’s like something you go down an alley, you walk up to. I do want another one, though. A little club. Knock on the door… The guy opens the thing, and you say, does the beef makes the crunch hidden? And then he lets you in? Yeah, yeah. It’s like a password. Is that club 33? What is that thing? We’re gonna invite somebody to our club. Uh oh. That means we’ve hit the. What do we call this thing? The third tongue. The third tongue. We call upon a man who says that he really likes spicy stuff, but let’s see how spicy he likes it. Chase. Oh, okay. Yeah. Chase, you’re gonna help us figure out. I’m hurting a little bit, but it tastes really good. I’m nervous. There you go. Chase. It’s not the worst thing ever, but it’s. I mean, I’m having heartburn, and I feel like I need a burp, but. I’m afraid to burp. I took some really healthy bites on the front. You can have my backside here. Oh, thank you. Or do you want. Or do you want my backside? I mean, red offered first, so I’ll take his. I’m no longer allowed to cook with chili crisp in the house because I accidentally put some on a burger and then flipped it on the skillet, and it kind of created, like, a pepper. Pepper spray, basically. Yeah. And. Yeah. The cat, dog, Sarah, and I were all just, like, tearing. You. The cat and the dog were crying. 20 minutes. Yeah. Yeah. Okay… It will taste good. Do your worst. Take a big bite now. Come on. Don’t. Oh, there you go. That’s good. I mean, it’s good, isn’t it? I mean, that thing. That is good. It tastes good. Now the spice will. I think it’s marketable. I think I’m gonna get the hiccups in a second. I know, I’m sweating. Yeah, yeah, the spice really start building on you. I want another bite. I know. Go. Go for it. But it’s already in the back of my throat. I know. And it’s gonna be in your stomach in a minute. What? What is it? What is this? What is it? A band aid. That’s a band aid? It goes all the way around your arm. Yeah, I pulled it from the cabinet back there… It’s a really long band Aid. I guess we can talk about that later. It’s just the longest band aid I’ve ever seen. It’s very spicy. It’s on the, like. the high end of what they would, like, actually serve at a restaurant, right? Yeah. Much hotter than this. And it would be like, who’s gonna order this? But I feel like it’s riding that line. But it tastes so good. It’s still. It’s still so tasty. Like. it’s right at that line where it’s not like no one actually wants to eat it. Cause it really does taste good. Yeah, right? No, it’s on the side that you wanna eat it, right? Yeah. He’s unanimous. Cause it’s too spicy. Chili crisp. Will it sloppy Joe? Yes. All right, we did it. Was that a queen sweep? For me it was. Not for me. You said you didn’t like the australian one. I regret it now. If I had to do it again, I would have liked the vegemite just that much more to make a queen. Queen sweep. Can’t go back. No backsies. Good job, Nicole. Thank you. I had a lot of fun.
