Sloppy Joes for a Crowd
This is a simple and easy recipe for making Sloppy Joes for 24 or more people. Yes, I know, what kind of good Sloppy Joe recipe uses Manwich®? In this case it's used as a base (like ketchup) to make a really tasty dish. I used the best ideas of several Sloppy Joe recipes on the Allrecipes website, added my own twist, and expanded it for a crowd.

Cook's Notes:
Sloppy Joes are like chili. There are many variations as to personal taste. You may want to add more or less brown sugar, clove, or vinegar to get the flavor you like. Warning! Do not add ketchup! The Manwich(R) is very ketchupy to start.
This recipe just fits in a 6-quart slow cooker. It can be doubled for a crowd of 48 but you will need 2 slow cookers or an 18-quart NESCO(R) Roaster to hold it.
