Chorizo Stout Sloppy Joes

By kimvess

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1/2 onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound ground pork
• 12 weight ounces chorizo
• 1 cup stout beer
• 1/2 cup tomato paste
• 1/4 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
• 8 kaiser rolls (I used potato rolls)
• 6 weight ounces cheese (cheddar, swiss, or pepper jack), sliced

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions:
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Add the red bell pepper and onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
Add the ground pork and chorizo, cook until browned and mostly cooked through, breaking them into smaller pieces throughout the cooking process. Drain off most of the grease that has accumulated.
Add the stout, tomato paste, cumin, black pepper, stir, and simmer until everything is cooked through, another 10 minutes.
Toast the buns in the oven on a baking sheet or a toaster oven.
Scoop meat into buns, cover with cheese slice, and put the top of the bun on. Repeat on all eight sandwiches.
Serve immediately.
