It’s easy to make low carb sloppy Joes at home: Saute onions, garlic, green bell pepper and lean ground beef in a pot or a pan until the beef is cooked through. Make sure to break the beef up into tiny pieces, start it in a cold pan for the best results. Add the sauce ingredients, stir, and cover. Simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes and serve.

The main sweet ingredients in a classic Sloppy Joes recipe are ketchup and brown sugar. The former is packed with sugar and the latter is, well, quite literally sugar. Note that onions and bell peppers ( which are great for you, by the way) naturally contain some sugar as well.
Add additional water if you prefer a sloppy joe with more sauce than meat. If you like a little sweeter flavor, add an additional tablespoon of brown sugar replacement for a total of 3, which satisfies our sweet tooth and compliments the red pepper flakes nicely.
