What makes these Sloppy Joes special? It's all about the depth of flavor. We start by toasting the cumin to unlock its nutty aroma, then build a foundation of tender onions, bell peppers, and jalapeños. The secret ingredient? A splash of beer or beef broth to deglaze the pan, adding richness and complexity to the sauce. A touch of lime juice brightens everything up, and fresh cilantro adds a burst of freshness that perfectly complements the smoky heat.
