Mike'S Tex - Mex Pork Tacos
- 24 oz. boneless pork chops or rib meat
- 1 1/2 C. onion ( 1 medium onion) diced
- 1 1/2 C. bell pepper or red pepper ( 2 small or 1 large pepper)
- 7 oz. salsa verde
- 5 oz. A-1 or Kurtz original steak sauce (generic A-1)
- 12 oz. beer
- 1 tbs. chili powder
- 3 tbs. olive oil
- Flour Tortillas
- Salt
- Pepper
- Optional toppings:
- White cheddar cheese
- Romaine Lettuce
- Tomatoes
- Salsa Picante
- Taco meat:
- 1. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium/high heat. Saute onions and peppers
- until softened and starting to brown about 8-10 minutes.
- 2. Add meat and continue to cook at medium high heat until meat is browned. Cook for an additional 4 or 5 minutes to further brown and to reduce moisture.
- 3. Add beer and chili powder. Simmer for 3-4 minutes.
- 4. Add salsa verde and A-1 and continue to simmer at medium/high heat, stirring occasionally until all the liquid has cooked off and the remaining meat and sauce is pasty, caramelized and starting to brown like a fajita.
- 5. Set meat aside.
- Chimichanga style taco shells:
- 1. Heat oil 1/4" deep in a medium saute pan.
- 2. Deep fry flour tortilla shells in olive oil. Fold in half while still soft before removing from pan.
- Top with your favorite toppings. I prefer white cheddar cheese or extra sharp cheddar cheese if white cheddar is not available, shredded romaine lettuce, diced tomatoes and salsa picante.
