Ingredients

• 1 tbsp.

Directions

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook, stirring and breaking up meat, until no longer pink, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain fat.
2. Return beef mixture to skillet over medium heat and stir in ketchup, garlic, brown sugar, mustard, and chili powder and season with salt and pepper. Simmer until thick, 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a plate and wipe skillet clean.
3. Assemble sandwiches: Butter one side of each bread slice. Place 1 slice butter-side down in skillet and spoon over sloppy joe mixture. Top with cup of cheddar cheese and one more slice bread, buttered-side up.
4. Cook over medium heat until bread is golden and cheese is melty, about 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make 4 sandwiches total.
