Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound ground sirloin
- 8 ounces ground pork
- 8 ounces ground veal
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- One 28-ounce can diced tomatoes, with juice
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 8 slices aged provolone cheese
- 8 hinged hoagie/sub rolls
- Oil-packed hot giardiniera, for serving
- Chianti, for serving
Directions
Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add in the sirloin, pork and veal, and brown until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the meat and store in a bowl, leaving the juices and fat in the Dutch oven.
Sweat the garlic, onions and Italian seasoning in the Dutch oven, stirring frequently to insure they do not burn. Once the onions are translucent, add the meat back to the pan and then add the wine to deglaze. Add in the tomatoes and milk and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce thickens, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Sandwich Build: Place a piece of cheese in each hoagie roll. Place some meat on top and the some giardiniera on the top of it all. Serve with a pint of Chianti.

There are many Sloppy Joe recipes out there. I've tried quite a few of them. Of the many I tried I only kept two. Until now.
This is a DELICIOUS! addition to my collection. It receives all Thumbs Up by 3 teenage boys!
I didn't have any veal on hand so I just doubled Pork, followed recipe as written. Easy to make. It is now one of my go to recipes. Like the old commercial said "Try it. You'll like it."

Loved this -- although my first inclination was to add some tomato paste, it really "aged" after some simmering. Needs lots of salt and pepper. and I did add some chili flakes for some zing. It's a great twist on an old standby.
