This is a first me cooking ground meat tacos on the flat top. Plenty of fajitas and such but wanted to try something new.
Grabbed a couple pounds of brisket I had ground up a few months back out of the freezer and got it thawed. Gotta use corn tortillas for this. 8 TBS of
tx smoker
taco seasoning.
Sprinkled in a couple TBS at a time of the seasoning and mixed well with the spatula. Squirt some water on the flat top here and there to get everything together.
Moved the taco meat over to the right side where the burner wasn't lit to keep it warm. Throw a corn tortilla on the flat top with a little oil. Once one side looks good turn it over. I applied a little shredded cheese and then taco meat and folded it over. Spatula works as a good tool to help form the taco shell.
Give them another min or so and you are good to go. Repeat process until taco meat is gone.
Ended up with this plus maybe another 5 tacos worth the kids wanted on flour tortillas.
Plate em up. Added some cilantro, lettuce, and queso fresco cheese. Some refried beans and Mexican rice and we are in business.
These were honestly the best taco's I have ever made. Wife and the guests went nuts over them. The ground brisket, the homemade taco seasoning, and the crisped corn tortillas cooked on the griddle made a HUGE difference. Off the chain good I would highly recommend trying this out if you have a chance. Thanks for checking it out.
