My husband said these were the best Sloppy Joe’s (before I told him they had another name!) he had ever had! I normally make sloppy joe’s with a sweet sauce but when I saw this recipe in the Gooseberry Patch Hometown Christmas Cookbook I knew it would be a hit!

Tavern Sandwiches

These sandwiches have a unique ingredient. I will be honest I thought it was a little weird to put a can of chicken gumbo soup in this recipe but the results are yummy!

I made these Tavern Sandwiches in the Instant Pot for a quick weeknight dinner.

    This was the only sloppy joe I knew until I was an adult and had someone else’s. Mom only made this but she didn’t put tomato soup in hers. However, she added a little brown sugar. I have been eating these for over 60 years.

  2. I’ve only made my sloppy joes like this forever! The only thing I don’t put in mine is the tomato soup!!! I’m so glad I found your website!

    These were what our family always called Gumbo Burgers. My aunt would bring a big roaster full of the filling. for large family gatherings. I never knew “sloppy joes” were anything but Gumbo Burgers until I grew up and moved out into the world. We didn’t use the tomato soup, either, just the Gumbo Soup.

  4. After browning and mixing everything, I places lid in and high pressure set for 7mimutes, the burn light came on. There isn’t a lot of juice, but I followed instructions. Any ideas?

      Ground beef can have different amounts of moisture/liquid/fat. For a pressure cooker recipe you need about 1 cup of liquid per recipe. I would add the full can of gumbo soup and if there doesn’t seem like you have a cup of liquid still I would add some water.

    2. Same here. I have attempted the recipe three times with different ways of incorporating items. Beef on the bottom, soup on top not stirring in = burn notice. Stirring in = burn notice. Soup with chicken stock = burn. Oh well, works on the stove top but takes longer.

  5. I love this recipe but it’s getting harder and harder to find the Chicken Gumbo soup that Cambells may have discontinued. Any suggestions for substitutions?
