These were a hit, my 13 year old LOVED them. Followed recipe but used 1 jalapeno instead of 2. It was spicy but not overly for us, it was really good!

Almost too hot to eat, next time I would cut it down to one jalapeno. But other than that- very tasty!

I agree with the poster who said this is way too spicy and i only used 1 jalepenos. I had to tone it down with ranch and it literally gave me a stomach ache because of the spice. Beware! Otherwise, they were actually really good and flavorful. I will make them again, but will add less Spice next time.

I cannot say even begin to describe how yummy this turned out. I used Heinz brand chili sauce and only one jalapeno. I'm not old enough to purchase alcohol so I substituted about a cup of canned diced tomatoes in their juice for the ale. Flavor came out exactly like sloppy joes but with a little kick of spicy. It tasted extra delicious on grilled Yves "the good dog." Great meal for the 4th of July.

This was WAY too spicy, and I didn't even use half of the called-for amount of chili sauce.

This is a delicious recipe, but tastes just like chili rather than the sweet and sour taste you would expect from something titled "Sloppy Joes". So, I added some (about 2 T or to taste) apple cider vinegar and some (about 2 T or to taste) brown sugar and got the taste I was looking for.
