Subject: sloppy Joes are alive and well in Utah



So far everyone seems to agree that "sloppy Joe" refers to a sandwich

made with ground beef in a chili-like sauce. (In my experience, always

between hamburger buns.)

...

I don't remember running across any sandwich called a "sloppy Joe"

anywhere else in Oregon or in the West, for that matter....



That's what they've always been called here, and the definition's the

same. They're quite common, in my experience, and I've never heard any

other term used for them except "sloppy Joe."
