SPICES
1 Tbsp chili powder (i like hot)
1/2 tsp hungarian paprika
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt, kosher variety, or to taste

  • 6. Mix the ingredients together.
  • 7. Chef's Note: You don't have to go too crazy with the mixing. Just get them combined. They will have plenty of time in the slow cooker to get to know each other.
  • 8. Add the mixture to the slow cooker, and then add the remaining beef stock, or water.
  • 9. Set your slow cooker to low, and set a timer for two hours.
  • 10. After two hours open the slow cooker, and breakup the taco meat.
  • 11. Return the cover to the slow cooker, and set the timer for an additional two hours.
  • 12. After two hours, open slow cooker and again break the meat apart.

  • 15. At the end of six hours total time, remove that wonderful smelling taco meat from the slow cooker.

RESTAURANT STYLE TACO MEAT SEASONING



Restaurant Style Taco Meat Seasoning image

I loathe store bought taco seasoning. The flavor of it is so overpowering that you can hardly taste anything else on your taco! I found this recipe and adapted it a bit to suit my own tastes. I'm posting it on here mostly to be able to find it whenever I want to make it again. **NOTE: sometimes i substitute 1 tsp of store-bought taco seasoning in place of 1 tsp chili powder. you can't pick the flavor of the store-bought stuff out and it helps bring the flavors together a bit**
