Instructions
Crumble the ground beef into a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently until evenly browned.

Reduce heat to medium and pour in the chili sauce. Stir in the vinegar and sugar.
Add mustard if using. Simmer until the mixture is your desired thickness.
Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Malbec, Zinfandel
Pinot Noir, Malbec, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Sloppy Joe. All these red wines pair well with a sloppy joe's ground beef and tomato sauce. The Dragonette Cellars Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 45 dollars per bottle.

2016 was another in a string of terrific vintages in Santa Barbara. We had another early budbreak, and (unlike 2015) perfect weather during set, allowing for a strong, balanced crop. May, June and July were quite warm and ripening was fairly quick; however, an unseasonably cool August slowed the vines considerably. For the winemaker it was almost ideal, as the grapes were able to complete ripening slowly, without heat spikes, and the grapes maintained excellent acidity. Over a series of cool mornings, we picked each block at near perfect ripeness and balance. The wines appear to have great fruit character, fresh acidity and tannic structure and solid depth.
