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.
 
 
Lime cilantro chicken thighs with pequin powder.
 
I love pequins.
 
Flat topped.
 
Like a naval aircraft carrier.

Do pita bread gyros count as tacos??? If so the here is the steak gyros we had tonight. Skirt steak was marinaded in spicy Italian dressing and a little Worcestershire overnight. The bell pepper, jalapeño and onion were marinaded shortly in olive oil and spices. Some pickled pepperoncini, feta cheese, tzatziki sauce, fresh tomato and Matouks hot sauce finish it off.

See my opening post to this thread.
 
I Liked It and then UnLiked it.
 
Just so I could Like it again.
 
Thousands of years ago.
 
In the time of the white buffalo.
 
And the saber tooth.
 
The caveman.
 
The Neanderthal.
 
People made unleavened bread.
 
Put some fire roasted meat on it.
 
And ate it.
 
The first tacos.
 
Later....
 
Some guy named Jesus was feeding unleavened bread and fish to the 5,000.
 
The worlds first fish tacos.
 
And then came the Mayans.
 
The Aztecs.
 
Mexico.
 
They perfected the taco.
 
Because Jesus.
 
A Jew.
 
With a Mexican name.
 
I made chicharrones and chorizo tacos tonight. Everything used is in the first pic except for the garlic. The tomatillos and half the peppers get cooked in water. The chorizo gets pan fried and drained. The onion and other half of the peppers get cooked in the chorizo grease. Then the tomatillos and pepper mix gets blended with cilantro, garlic , the water they cooked in and salt and pepper. That mix gets added to the onions and peppers, at the and time add the chicharrones and cooked chorizo. Simmer until chicharrones are soft and serve with rice and cheese.

Fine.
 
You bastige.
 
You're NYC.
 
And thats cool and the gang.
 
But you need to get out more.
 
And I need to correct my earlier post.
 
Not 30 seconds,
 
10 seconds in the sand and water on Waikiki.
 
For all the life you've lived.
 
And all the 'thangs you've done.
 
That could be the best 10 seconds of your life.
 
So yeah.
 
Hawaiian.
 
Howzit?
 
I'm still TB.
 
And I'll splash the pot with Hawaiian shit when ever I feel like it!
