Sheri Castle
Sheri Castle is an award-winning, professional food writer and culinary instructor. She is known for melding storytelling, humor, and culinary expertise, so she can tell a tale while making a memorable meal.
"I’ve been a cook and writer my whole life. I wrote my first original recipe and mailed it to a TV show when I was four years old. I was lucky enough to have been raised by one of those legendary Southern grandmothers who cooked with great skill and no recipes. Even when my cooking veered drastically away from Southern for a few years, she was always open to what I prepared and would taste anything."

Sweet Cider
What does one pair with Lentil Sloppy Joes? In this case, we are going to go with Bull City Ciderworks Off Main Cider - a classic cider that remains sweet without added sugar. The secret is in cold crashing the cider before the yeast eats all the sugar. This trick allows them to produce sweet ciders with lower residual sugar. The sweetness in Off Main will complement the sweet sauce that holds the lentils together in this sandwich.
Nero d’Avola, Sicily, Italy
Nero d’Avolas are bold, high-acid reds that not only match the richness of the sloppy joes, but also go with tart cherry slaw. Their rusticity complements the spicy savory notes of the lentils as well.
