These aren’t just any ol’ sloppy joe you had as a kid. My version has been “adulterized” by adding flavors of red wine vinegar for some tang, red wine for depth, San Marzano tomatoes because… they’re the best, red peppers for texture and sweetness, jalapeños for a little kick, and THEN topped with freshly fried crispy shallots & jalapeños to bring it all on home to Flavortown (totally felt like Guy Fieri writing that).

the nest jumbo lump crab cakes

Jumbo lump crab cakes was the birthday dinner request from my husband this year so I thought I’d give them a shot and WHOA, did they turn out AMAZING. A perfect crab cake in my book are thick and crispy with a punch of flavor that doesn’t take away from the decadent large clumps of crab.
