The Great HBT Taco Thread

[Inkleg]

I have a Salsa tree in the backyard that I get this from.

Hunter won't be joining us. He's on a boat somewhere, probably eating some octogenarian's taco.

Asshoke. I just took a vow to only eat one taco for the rest of my life, and she's four years younger than me.

Speaking of hot sauce... Newly acquired (since we finished our old one). So tasty

Not bad stuff.

My go to is Tapatio or Valintinas. I just hate Tabasco, tastes like vinegar and pepper, gross.

Tapatio and Valentinas are decent tacosauces. I've been into Sontava XXX Habanero lately. But nothing beats a good fresh made salsa as a taco topper.

Tabasco belongs nowhere near a taco. That's like trying to put marinara on ice cream. Your crossing genre's here that shouldn't be crossed.

Tapatio and Louisiana are my usual.

Louisiana's fine. On Cajun food.

Does this count as taco accessories?

Pretty sure there's tacos somewhere in there.

Merry Taco Tuesmas everyone.

Fish tacos are lunch. I heard a rumor from the missus that chicken tacos will be dinner.

Maybe another taco for dessert.

Reuben Tacos!

Thats so dirty haha.

My old boss has a dinner he makes from his bachelor days. Calls it the Guido burrito (can also be made as a taco). Basically... Spaghetti and meatballs, in the tortilla... Yup.

 

[slym2none]

"No, I am not eating ice cream. Yes, that is taco meat & toppings in an ice cream cone. I was out of clean dishes."

Now I totally want to try a Guido burrito.

It makes me sad that no one has posted their taco Tuesday creations here today. I slow cooked some carnitas up today and made fresh corn tortillas and cilantro lime rice

I totally need to make up another batch of carnitas. It's just so dang good! The "problem" is that people around me only think tacos can be soft flour torts with packaged store-bought seasoning mix in ground beef, cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce, & tomato. I even tried grilling chicken thighs with the store-bought seasoning & then shredding it, and it was all but untouched.

I even know how to make Baja-style tacos, but I imagine fish & red cabbage would just throw these people for a loop around here.

Bah. I'll make the carnitas for myself and eat it all myself, again. "Problem" solved!

Sounds like you need new people to be around haha. If you ever make it out to Mexico North (aka San Diego) I'll show you some killer carnitas

Nice.

I've been seriously slacking on the tacos. Luckily tomorrow is Tuesday.

I'll go ahead and be late to the party, and skip over 27 pages...

Best tacos I've ever had at a popup trailer place in Chincoteague VA: http://www.picotaqueria.com/ The cauliflower one is absolutely incredible, the oyster one too.


At home, we go simple and more traditional, chicken breasts in the slow cooker with some salsa verda on low for 8 hours, shred it, then corn tortillas with cilantro, onion, avocado, maybe some pico, and lime juice. Boom.

 

[1977Brewer]

I eat tacos all the time and I forget about this thread every time. Last week alone I had the biggest brisket taco I've ever seen, a jerk chicken taco that made me moist, a coupe pulled pork and a shrimp.

I should post here more. I eats some tacos.

 

[Qhrumphf]

I love tacos. But I usually prefer the even better street food, the Torta. There's a hipsterish chef-run taco place in Falls Church that also makes good tacos (but not as good as Pico in Chincoteague, but it's 20 minutes away instead of 3.5 hours), but they make a Cubana Torta that will destroy your heart but mother of god it's delicious.

The best Baja-style tacos on the east coast were made at Choncho's Tacos in Williamsburg, BK, NYC. Too bad they closed down. Grilled or fried fish tacos. Had other stuff, but that was their specialty. Awesome.
