Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 ribs of celery, chopper
  • 1/2 white onion, chopped
  • 8-12 slider buns

FOR THE Sauce

  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 tbsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tbsp cayenne pepper powder
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth

Thickener

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Directions

  1. Set the cooker for STS and put the lid on, allowing to heat while you chop your veggies and mix the sauce.
  2. Mix together all of the sauce ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
  3. Once the inner pot is hot, add the ground turkey, garlic, and some salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring frequently with a long wooden spoon until the turkey is cooked, about 5 minutes.
  4. Spoon out about half of the fat once cooked and add the celery, peppers, and onion. Keep cooking for about 3 minutes until the vegetables start to soften, then add the ketchup sauce and give a quick stir.
  5. Place the lid onto the cooker and reset to the Poultry setting; set for PP50. Allow the cooker to begin reaching pressure for 7 minutes. After 7 minutes, whether the cooker has reached pressure or not, turn it off and do a quick release of pressure by switching to venting.
  6. While the pressure is releasing, mix the water and cornstarch in a small bowl. Once the pressure is released, open lid, turn the cooker on and set for STS, then stir in the cornstarch mixture. Cook for 2 minutes while stirring until it becomes thick.
  7. Switch the cooker to keep warm and scoop bit spoonfuls of the sloppy joe mix onto the slider buns and serve.
