A vegetable (not potato chips) the fresher, the better. I would slice up a cucumber and put it in a bowl of ice with vinegar and lemon pepper. That's great for a hamburger cookout on a warm day. After Thanksgiving, it's not the same. Then, I'd have a baked potato with Italian dressing on top.

I have never had sloppy joes, but this is a favorite side for hamburgers in my family, they are much healthier than regular french fries.
Sweet potato oven fries. If you decide to make your own fries, parboil (partially boil with skins on to cook them for about 15-20 minutes) them first. Dry them really, really well. Then cut them into fries and bake them on about 400 for 18-20 minutes or until they are starting to get brown. Don't overcook these, the natural sugars can burn easily. I sprinkle on a spice mix I make myself with brown sugar, chili powder, garlic salt, pepper and cinnamon.
I would also add a side salad, maybe a simple lettuce, tomato, red onion with a homemade balsamic vinegrette with some fresh or dried mint. The sweetness will echo the sweetness in the sweet potato fries and the sloppy joes.

I always serve pork and beans and chips with sloppy joes.
The idea of cole slaw sounds good too.
