Sloppy Joe Spiders

Large Batch Sloppy Joes, serves 10 to 12

*72 ounce (about 4 and 1/2 pounds) Ground Chuck, Cooked/Browned

*1 can 28 ounce can Hunt’s Manwhich Sloppy Joe Sauce

*1 and 1/2 cups Baby Ray’s Sweet and Spicy BBQ

*Sliced Pepper Jack Cheese, optional

*2 bags (24 Rolls) Rhodes Yeast Rolls, Warm N’ Serve Rolls, warm/bake according to package directions

*1 bag 9 and 1/4 ounce Fritos Honey BBQ Twists

*Honey and Candy Eyes

Brown the ground chuck, add sea salt and fresh ground pepper.   Optional, but I like to add red pepper flakes, onion flakes and dried minced garlic before browning.  Drain off excess fat and then  add the sloppy Joe sauce and BBQ sauce.  Simmer until warmed through about 15 to 20  minutes.

Bake rolls and add warmed sloppy Joe  mixture on top of a slice of cheese to the top of the bottom bun.  Add top bun, place two small dots of honey where you want the eyes and add 8 BBQ twists for the Legs.  Enjoy!.
