Does this freeze well?

The Sloppy Joe does, yes. To reheat from frozen simply thaw and reheat in a skillet. You may need to add a touch of water to help loosen things up.

Texturally offensive The texture resembles vomit, and the taste is worse than the texture. That is the most polite statement that can be made about this recipe.

The pita ads such a nice change from regular sloppy joes.
