What Is a Sloppy Giuseppe?

Sloppy Giuseppe is a flavour of pizza found primarily in the United Kingdom, made popular by the Pizza Express chain of Italian style restaurants. The name is an Italianisation of the Sloppy Joe, a type of meat sauce often served on a hamburger bun.

What toppings are on a sloppy Giuseppe?

A pizza base topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, spicy ground beef, green pepper and red onion.

Who invented Sloppy Joes?

The Sloppy Joe's history, however, is a bit more complex. Some attribute the original Sloppy Joe to a cafe in Sioux City, Iowa, where, many years ago, in 1930 a cook named Joe added tomato sauce to his “loose meat” sandwiches. Voila: a new between-the-bread offering, and the sandwich's official name.
