Sloppy Joe Casserole
  1. Preheat oven to 375°. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add beef; season with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Cook, breaking up beef with a wooden spoon, until crumbled and no longer pink, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beef to a plate. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat.

  2. In same skillet over medium heat, cook onions, bell peppers, and garlic, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, 10 to 12 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add ketchup and cook, stirring occasionally, until ketchup is reduced to a thick paste, 5 to 6 minutes. Add chili powder and mustard and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomato sauce, broth, vinegar, Worcestershire, and brown sugar and cook, stirring, until combined. Add beef and a few dashes of hot sauce (if using).

  3. Transfer to a 2-quart baking dish. Top with rolls cut sides down (both the tops and the bottoms, for a total of 16 halves). Brush with butter and sprinkle with cheese.

  4. Bake casserole until rolls are toasted and cheese is melted, 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley (if using).
