Beef and Mushroom Sloppy Joes

So D made this one. I think it was easy.

The positives were that the portions were huge, and they were moist, but not messy.  The negative is the mushroom taste was overpowering.  D thought it had too much Worcesterhire. I thought there was not enough of a tang/vinegar taste.  We had with Macaroni and Cheese

I think we will stick with Chipotle Sloppy Joes.

Beef and Mushroom Sloppy Joes

Cremini offer deeper, richer flavor, but you can also use regular button mushrooms.
