Taco Recipe

This is the recipe I use for seasoning taco meat. I started developing it sometime around 2020 if I had to guess. I never measure when I cook, and add ingredients to taste. After making a consistent flavor I liked, I have measured the individual ingredients used.

Ingredients:

(The amounts listed below make about 15 or so hefty tacos on medium-sized tortillas)

• 1/2 Tbsp Butter
• 2.25lbs 80/20 Ground Beef
• 3 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Seasoned Soy Sauce for Seafood (I highly recomend using this specific brand)
• 1/2 tsp Tajin
• 1 tsp Cayenne Pepper
• 4 tsp Garlic Powder
• 4 tsp Onion Powder
• 2 Tbsp Chili Powder
• 1 Tbsp Cumin
• 2 Tbsp Red Wine (Any red should do)
• 1/3 cup Water

Cooking Instructions

1. Place butter into large pan. Turn heat to somewhere between medium and medium/high. Stir until fully melted.
2. Add ground beef. Breaf up with a spatula to little peices. Stir occasionally. Let it cook in its own juices. Cook until fully brown then turn heat down to medium.
