Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
There are no specific quantities - just figure about 4-6 servings per pound of hamburger. Mom just "eyeballed" the ketchup to make it moist but not too sloppy. Cinnamon should be added a little at a time so it does not get too much in there and overpower it.
Best Sloppy Joe's ever!!
