What do you plan on making for your next Taco adventure?
Taco Question - for everyone.

I never get adventurous with tacos. Maybe I need to change that.
Pork, for family. I don't eat tacos.
It's funny you should post that. My princess requested blackened shrimp and guacamole tacos for dinner. Couldn't be easier to prepare-
peel and devein a dozen 16-20 shrimp
marinate briefly in olive oil, S&P, garlic, smoked paprika, and chili powder
toss for 3 minutes in stupid hot carbon pan
prepare guacamole (should take less than the 3 minutes the shrimp are cooking)
serve with tortillas and ear plugs (to suppress the moans of pleasure)
makes three killer tacos

Thinly sliced and chopped skirt steak I guess. On corn tortilla. Cilantro and onion.
Can't find a decent taco around here to save my life. Gotta make your own.
Are you trying to seduce me? It sounds like you're trying to seduce me. Shrimp tacos!?

Ah.... OK..... Remind me to pass should you think to invite me over to dinner sometime
My last taco making was an adventure. It started off with a hamburger and cheese smoked onion bomb. Re-Heat in a pan chopped and placed in a tortilla with smoked poblano's, cilantro, tomatoes, avocados and a squeeze of lime.
Looks delicious. I hope this thread explodes with recipes. I've never done it but I bet a flounder ceviche would be excellent in taco form! I havent been out fishing as much as I would have liked this year

Forget those corn wafers...It all starts with a homemade corn tortilla. Maseca + agua = perfection.

It's better then it sounds..
cook it like pot roast..Peel it afterwards, slice it real thin, heat up in a pan with some grease..On the side have some sasla or other stuff to go with it..Most under appreciated meat there is..
I wanted to take a picture of the finished product, so I went to get my camera. I returned 30 seconds later and they were gone.
What are you going to eat?
Fortunately I had a mound of sausage and peppers and a Fairway baguette.
Tongue. At a classic deli, it costs more than corned beef or pastrami. Dirt cheap at Mexican restaurants, and killer on a taco. Lengua!
My next taco adventure starts in 5 minutes. Old El Paso and a cold beer.
My usual taco recipe is probably frowned upon. It's not authentic, or even interesting, but I love it.
1. Cook ground beef with onions, Serrano or Jalapeno peppers, and taco seasoning. (And a bit of diced tomato, on occasion.)
2. Serve on crispy yellow corn shells. (From a box. Don't judge. Lol.)
3. Layer with cheese (A Mexican blend, or just cheddar), taco sauce (typically La Victoria, or Ortega red sauce), and lots of hot sauce. (Red or green Tobasco, or whatever strikes my fancy.)
4. Serve with a side of refried beans and Mexican rice.
I don't care for lettuce, tomato, or sour cream.

Boudin grilled until teh skin is crackly. You can use a whole link or part of a link, or remove it from the skin and apply it directly to tortilla. I particularly like lobster or conch tacos. Barbacoa de cabeza. Bacon, avacado, and tomato. Fried oysters and shredded raw spinach. Leftovers. Whatevah. Anything is good folded or rolled inside a tortilla, be it flour or corn. Personally I prefer corn, especially freshly made ones.
I dont like those shell things. They are to me, most impractical. For one thing, they break and spill taco guts all over your lap. They don't taste right. They dont look right or feel right. You already need corn tortillas for making enchiladas, or masa for making them from scratch, which is exponentially better, so why buy shells, too? YMMV I guess.

Don't tell those heathens about boudin!
