Make your best taco.

And it doesn't have to be mexican.
 
I put ever dang 'thang on a flour or corn tortilla.
 
Thats a taco.
 
Make a bigger taco.
 
Thats a burrito.
 
Its all good.
 
Ever had a brisket and egg breakfast taco?
 
How about a sun dried tomato, goat cheese, roasted garlic, pequin, and refried bean taco?
 
The rules are this.
 
Keep it flour or corn.
 
Home made or store bought.
 
If you post a pita taco I will like you but then unlike you.
 
And then probably still like you again if it looks really good.
 
Get crazy.

Couple pounds of skinless chicken thighs marinated overnight in Grace's jerk marinade and homemade dry rice wine....About a 50/50 mix. A little of the Graces straight up for basting. Might add just a little brown sugar to it though.
 
Calypso slaw
 
1 14 oz bag of Dole slaw mix or about 4-6 cups of sliced cabbage
3 Tbs Extra virgin olive oil
3 Tbs white balsamic or white wine vinegar
Juice from half a lime (1-2tbs)
2 Tsp Dijon mustard
3 Tsp granulated sugar
1/4 Tsp salt
1/4 Tsp black pepper
Pinch of mild pepper flakes...i used Korean
Sprinkle of ginger powder

Optional
Couple tbs of crushed pineapple/juice and/or chopped mango
Genetikx Carribean Red/pineapple hot sauce to taste
1-2 tbs of mayo
A little thinly sliced red cabbage
2 green onions (white part), chopped or a little thinly sliced red onion

Add salt and sugar to the slaw mix. Stir well and allow to weep for 15 minutes.
Whisk the rest of the ingredients together.
After the slaw mix has rested a few minutes in the salt/sugar add the dressing to your liking according to how wet you want it. Remember it will "juice" more in the fridge.

I used white balsamic and tbs fresh pineapple juice because i like the sweetness. No mayo this time in the dressing.

Dream of someday going to Mars.
 
SMDS is a real life Martian.
 
And really...
 
How bad can Martians be?
 
They don't want to kill us like in the movies.
 
They like posting on THP.
 
I hate when Martian shit looks better than mine though.
 
Martians rock!
