Add the garlic. Depending on the amount of residual grease, you may need to drain some of the fat from the pan. Deglaze with the red wine, then add the remaining sloppy joe ingredients (except the rolls), seasoning with 1 tablespoon each salt and freshly ground pepper. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes. If the sauce gets very thick as it simmers, add up to 1 cup water to adjust the consistency. Toast the rolls and set aside.

Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Malbec, Zinfandel

Pinot Noir, Malbec, and Zinfandel are great choices for Sloppy Joe. All these red wines pair well with a sloppy joe's ground beef and tomato sauce. The Premonition Cellars Pinot Noir with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 40 dollars per bottle.

This wine showcases concentrated flavors of cherry, cranberry and strawberry with hints of herb spices, fennel and oak aromas on the nose. Red berry fruits, tart cranberry, raspberry, and spices coat the palette, finishing with juicy acidity. This cool year helped retain its natural acidity, and the slow ripening allowed for beautifully balanced low alcohol wine. This wine has been barreled for 20 months in French oak, and has warm toasty aromas weaved throughout.
