I have been making this recipe for a long time. My nephews liked them, so when they came along, I put a name to them. Sandwiches like this used to be called Taverns around here. Now you hear the called Sloppy Joes too.

How to Make Trujillo Taverns

Step-by-Step

Brown one pound of hamburger with 1 medium chopped onion (and one rib of finely chopped celery if you have some on hand). Drain.
Add:
vinegar, yellow mustard, sugar, pepper, salt, catsup and can of soup.
Simmer for at least one half hour adding a bit of water if it gets dry. Using about 1/3 cup of the mixture per hamburger bun, this recipe will fill about 8 to 10 small buns. For a large group, recipe may doubled, tripled, etc. If increasing the recipe, a can or two of chicken gumbo soup also adds more flavor. Leftovers freeze well
