These Big Mac Sloppy Joes are a fun twist on the classic sandwich, packing all your favorite burger flavors into one easy, saucy meal. With seasoned beef, that iconic special sauce, melty cheese, and all the fixings, they turn an ordinary family dinner into something exciting and delicious.

If you’re looking for a saucy, crowd-pleasing dinner that you can enjoy any time of the year, this is it! Best of all, you can whip up this crave-worthy meal in just 25 minutes – even faster than a trip to the drive-thru for a Big Mac! And did I mention – I love making these for Game Day? This recipe makes 5, so double or triple it for a crowd.

Toast the buttered buns right in the heated skillet for the perfect crunch, and don’t be shy about doubling the special sauce for an extra sloppy consistency (or store the extra sauce for other dishes in the week). Your guests are going to LOVE you!
