It does taste 100x better if you cook the meat until brown with the onions then you strain the grease as well as possible, thennnn you add the seasonings and water (2/3 cup), bring that up almost to a boil then bring to a simmer for another 5 minutes or so until most of the water has evaporated out.
William Thomas try tomato sauce instead of water, practically heaven when sauce infuses into the meat
Nancy Goodman He was giving advice? That's like raising your hand in class to correct the teacher because they made a spelling mistake. Nothing is wrong with it. It's not hate, it's advice or a suggestion? Why is you're liberal was so offended?
William Thomas ikr!
I think it's better if you brown the meat by itself first and drain the fat. Then brown the onion and add the meat back and blend it together. If drain it after you cook the onion and beef together...you are just wasting the onion flavor...like throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
Or you can make real Mexican tacos
I always 75% brown mine first and then drain the grease, at that point ad in the onions, peppers whatever. You get a small amount of grease that’s just right. I don’t ad this much water as I prefer a less runny taco meat. Overall this looks good and I’d give it a try.
Well once it reduces it wont be watery ... Also is this guy using a WOK? lol
thank you so much. Shaping the minds of young college students who never cook LOL
Joseph Meastas yeah reducing down water doesn't make sense to me.
Put some beer in there or some stock might make more sense than reducing water. Hmmm
Instead of putting the water in just leave it out so you have nothing to reduce. Water has no flavor so why reduce anything. If you feel like it will pick up the flavors and reduce down just put less water in
yeah!!! woot hahha
This comment
Joseph Meastas I'm 15 and I'm watching this video because I don't want to be one of those lazy ass people I genuinely don't it's like a weird fear I have lol I'm weird
that's beef soup my guy
Lost it at this comment. LOL!
Lol
😂🤣
Just add another kilo of ground beef. LoL
Yoo my nigga 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have a restaurant in Japan and this video has been very helpful to me.
I just wanted to say I tried making this recipe. I forgot to grab seasoning from Krogers, and let me just say I am glad I did!!!! First of all, it is very easy to make. Second, it made the apartment smell amazing. My roommate walked in and could not get away from how good it smelled. Thank you for posting this!!!
Glad I could help.
+Brandon Eldridge you've persuaded me into making this.
Brandon Eldridge your posting makes absolutely no sense. You’re an idiot!
For real
Manny Escamilla 🤣🤣
Nicely done. The only feedback I have for you is you do not need as much water, and you will also need to drain the excess grease off of the meat. 👍🏾 keep up the great work👏🏾
Thanks.
I always come back to this recipe when I’m making tacos at home. It turns out amazing every time ❤️
That's great to hear....thanks!
@@slrtgaln4065 why are you watching this video if you're a knnow it all fam.
I tried this recipe except I used store bought taco seasoning and a little MSG instead of the spices and it turned out great!
I'm reading your comment while eating taco🌮
Gross!
So we can just Add MSG
So you didn’t make his recipe at all, is what you’re saying. Got it.
MSG never bothered me until I got knocked up, uuugggh😂
I cook a lot. I also add some water and then let it reduce. However, I do drain some grease prior to adding the water.
There is not health benefits to animal fat....I remove all after cooking meat. Surprised author of video didn't but even mentioned in video!
Great recipe,much better than using the seasoning out of the packet.i also added in half a can of tomatos and a table spoon of oregano
I tried your recipe and it was excellent. The thing I really like about it, it's nice and simple and it works.
After draining grease add tomato juice instead of water. To be simmered in tomato juice might be abit tastier then water. After all we add tomatos to tacos. Just a share. I just made this recipe. OMG!! it is really good!! I try to eat away from msg n all that. N u know, this tastes like i used that taco seasoning pouch. I only added some garlic other wise, it 98 percent to your recipe. MMMMMMMMMM!!!
Instead of water
Keep the grease and add some tomato sauce or paste just a little
NO ...animal fat clogs arteries and adds to stroke and heart attacks! Remove fat after cooking and add water, etc.
@@loriwoo8408 heart disease and cancer are new diseases in human beings
Animal fat has been apart of our diet since the beginning of time
You know what is new to our diet ?
PLANT OILS
Well done! So much better than the packet at the store!
I did add some garlic powder and I may try some of the other things people in your comments added but this is a really good recipe and I always have these ingredients on hand.
Very clear video. Thx!
Look at all the food critics on here! I dont see you on here cooking! I add a little water or broth to mine too. It doesnt dry the meat out. If your meat is getting dry, its because youre doing it wrong! I do drain the grease before adding my seasonings though. Just give this cook a like and move to the next video....gee whiz!
Heaps of eye appeal. Best image of ground beef that I have ever seen. I could just about sense the aroma through my computer.
I tried making these, substituted garlic for the onions, and didn't have any cumin. I have to say, it tasted good. Has a burning aftertaste due to the pepper, but strangely addicting.
hands down no matter how u make tacos you cant beat them mexican tacos 😍
for ppl saying there is too much water in it, try add some potato starch mixed with little water...i kinda like this recipe togather with water...not too oily and dry...
I would try most but without the oil or at least olive oil. But really ground beef when you're cooking it really doesn't need oil because it creates it's own oil and becomes greasy with oil.
Big Big help! Have to cook for a work networking event and realized I don't actually know how to prepare taco meat! Lol BUT now I do. :)
- in wok bc why not
- prehest pan medium heat
- some oil
- 1/4 onion
- wait for onion to colour a little
- 1 lb. pound beef (0.45 kg)
- I'd add garlic idk
- cook meat till brown
- 2tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- salt/pepper
- add a little water
done
I'm not the only one that likes to make my taco meat in a wok! It cooks so much faster.
I like this video because all the other videos talk too much and add their own personal thoughts... just cook and give us instructions! The other video was talking about how she like taco chips like wtf
"And two twists of pepper. One, Two, Three." LOL
Seasoning 2t chili powder, 1/2t cumin. Twist of pepper. Salt. Simple and so good!
Thanks
Agreed nice and simple I like
Young college students do not add water ! Buy a box of beef stock or get some beef buillion. That will make the cheapest meals taste wonders
This us so tasty and really easy to make im a kid and i can make it without any help
Best recipe that exist! Can only recommend it.
Little bit more onion makes it even better btw.
Got the basics. Thanks. Here goes.
turn the heat down? THen the meat doesnt get enough heat and the water comes out. YOu want high heat to seal the meat and to keep the liquid inside
Meat actually came out fire. Appreciate you fam lol
U gotta add some garlic powder and a pinch of poultry seasoning to that seasoning mix. Poultry seasoning is amazing!!!!!!!
Yes it is...
Before adding ground beef add Jalapeno!
@EBISU 88 Yes, pussy
I would drain most that grease out of there. just leave a little bit for flavor.
WilsonEatsASMR I would have cooked the ground beef first. Drain the grease and leave a little to cook the onions and garlic. Then add the cooked ground beef back.
AJtheory coconut oil would give it a different flavor, not sure if it'll work out.
AJtheory I got to ask what does keto mean ?
AJtheory thank you for explaining ❣
WilsonEatsASMR why does it matter what you would do
I wouldn't add water but I would use a can of black chilli beans and use the liquid from that instead. Garlic is a MUST!!!!
I make my own taco seasoning too. I also add garlic powder, adobo and paprika. The garlic powder is a must.
Need a taco chef 😋
Onion powder, garlic powder, real onions and green peppers.
Sigh, add garlic, sofrito, bay leaf and maybe an herb some oregano or thyme. Not true taco meat but it’s still very delicious. Oregano isn’t necessary but a bay leaf enhances the flavor tremendously.
Question from someone that doesn’t cook much! Isn’t it dangerous adding water to oil on a stove?
Stan Lee well it can be but if you’re adding a good amount of water enough to submerge what you’re cooking then the oil may only pop for a little bit. If it’s more hot oil than water that could be dangerous situation
Elizabeth Gansallo got it. Thanks
also, you need lots of fresh garlic.
when do I add??
@@triciafradrick3731 just before the meat to let the garlic turn slightly brown
I just want to try this recipe.thanks for sharing
Omg thank u my kids and i loved it....very simple to made it......
Thanks for watching
@@toservemen thank u
msg does not taste like garbage. It’s the Lords work
I will do this. Thanks for sharing
Came out delicious thank you!
Glad you liked it.
Wanna cook me some?
Use less water. Like probably 1/4 cup if Even. Just to get the flavors to distribute evenly. The little bit of water should reduce quickly. Personally, I would skip that step and instead knead the seasoning into the meat before cooking like you would with dough. Mix it by hand and really well. For Atleast 5 min. Then you can skip the water and just let it simmer a bit in its oils and juices. Let it cook in its own fat. Then If you want to be healthier, strain the beef fats and replace with just a dash of a healthy oil like olive.
This is great. This is exactly what I was just looking for. Thanks.
I make my taco filling also in a wok I would however drain the juice from the meat.....good job
This actually helped me a lot cause I’m trying to cook for my mom :)
Thanks
So relatable rn
You made my mule Pepe very happy. Gracias amigo.
I adore you for this video. I'm pregnant and have been hunting for a recipe that didn't have prepackaged seasoning. thank you
I just prepared this recipe. I did use more onion, less water, and added corn starch. The flavors were delicious, the texture perfect. Why buy a packet at the store? This is simple and tasty.
Thanx Holmes. I'm a 55 year old grown ass man and because of you I just googled the difference between corn starch and flour. smh
@@mortb9 I'm told flour has a tendency to clump more than corn starch. But both work.
@@bholmes5490 My point was what has my life become, but I am going to try it tomorrow night!!! lolol How much starch per pound of beef?
@@mortb9 I used a table spoon, but it would depend on the amount of water added. I am not a cook, but liked this recipe. Hope you do too.
@@bholmes5490 I finally stopped procrastinating and made it! Haven't tasted it yet. I'm sneaking up on it. : )) Thanx for corn starch tip. Gonna try it with sloppy joes next.
Simple, thanks.
It probably tastes yummy but it really needs to be drier...too much juice in that wok
Especially for dry tacos. Doesn't hold it for very long believe me.
hahahahahahahahahaha
Much Dryer
I didn't this recipe, but it needs some flour to thicken it, I'd recommend a tbsp of flour before you put the water in, cook our the raw flour for a couple of minutes, then add the water, should thicken it up nicely.
+jgomez Flour? No, just drain the grease.
Great recipe!!
Thanks
Lol it’s awesome and so simple
Why are you using a rice scooper as your cooking utensil?
i know...very bad...
🤣😂
I mean, he is cooking "taco meat" in a Wok...
It works for stirring, does it not? Don't see the issue lmao.
What 🤨
Good day mate! i just want to clarify the 2nd spice you put after 2 tea spoon of chili powder. How do you spell it? i guess never heard that before in our country. hehe by the thanks for your very useful info. Hope for more videos thanks! . God bless
I think you mean cumin?
Es comino.
yeah i didn’t get that too! chili powder and... what is cumin??!
I just made these !!! Ty so much tastes amazing! I'll be back for more! Keep it up!
=)
Looks good.
My mom just left town so i want to make food myself 😂
Wel done chafe upul ....i never seen before like cooking style. keep it up. 🥩🤗🤗🤗
The recipe is good without the added water and without the oil. Just use non-stick pan. Remember to drain grease BEFORE adding spices. And lastly.make sure you have a toilet near by for the next 2 days. Haha because your gonna need it.;)
The Rockaholic Experience! Lol well done
Omg this tastes so good thanks for the recipe
Hey, the guys got the right idea. This is very similar to Jimboy's Taco recipe!
How much of the taco seasoning do we need to add, then entire bag?
No you do not use taco seasoning mix you buy at store with this recipe...but remove nasty grease from meat after cooking and then add his recommended seasoning! If not then just use the back of the taco mix you bought and use that!
Preheat pan Medium heat
1:12 med high
2tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
Salt pepper
Add water. After bubbling go to med low
Why the water? Doesn't that make the meat too wet for tacos?
It makes it so the meat doesn't dry up while cooking
WATER? Adding water or broth does two things ... First, it makes a Roux (Sauce) that will be cooked down... Second,...As the Roux cooks down it soaks flavor into the meat and also coats the meat. It does not need to be wet, but you don't want dry either.
I would add some flour with the seasonings. Then you get a roux and the final product will be thicker, like Taco Bell beef.
That's not what a roux is...
Han Ooi yes it does, and it dilutes the flavor of the salt.
If you want to add water cover the pan for a few minutes and the condensation will drip into the meat. You want the meat to taste rich, not rubbery which is what the water will do. Meat is supposed to be fried, not boiled.
Old El Paso be hittin tho
Oh. Well don't I feel dumb. Every time I made tacos, the meat was kind of dry and crunchy. Maybe it had something to do with how paranoid I am when I'm cooking meat, but... Wow.
...Also, nice username.
+CallMeFreakFujiko Thanks
Try experimenting with some freshly diced juicy tomatoes too... Gives it a tang, keeps it tender and tends to dry out the meat less than water.
+CallMeFreakFujiko your doing just right meat should be dry, any other way is just crap.
if you want to be certain... grab the biggest chunk, and open it up, if its not pink, ur fine.
also, did you know that the majority of meat sold in the US is actually safe to consume at 125 degrees? cooking the outer parts of meat makes sense since that is where the bacteria would be, but on the inside, its typically safe which is why you can eat steak with a light seer and raw inside, Hell, most meat is safe to consume RAW.
McBiggie1 not pork or chicken 😂
Not simple, just the lazy way to make mediocre taco filler. You don.t need the oil for the onions. Mix them in with the ground beef.
What is a quarter exactly?
What ingredients did you use for the meat?
chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper . those are the base
We made this and it taste amazing the kids really enjoyed it 💕💕💕
Drain the grease before adding any seasoning!
Easy. Thanks
You only need oil if you have lean beef. If you use a 70/30 mix, no oil required, but be aware that you'll end up with less meat after the fat cooks out. You also won't need any water since the natural fat keeps the meat moist while cooking. You want a next level tip I figured out for savory taco meat. Instead of a half teaspoon of cumin and paprika, add a teaspoon of powdered Au Jus mix, it would beefify (I just made that up) the flavor and make cheap ground beef takes like a Texas steak taco. The ladies can't get enough of my browned beef!
why did u add water????? that's my question it looks like cooked beef and water
Interesting take on it.
I KNOW THAT TACO IS SO DELICIOUS, I CAN SMELL IT!!!!!!!!😤😁
To Serve Men thanks! the pot is awesome loving it haha
where can I find a written recipe?
No cumin, cayenne, oregano, garlic, paprika.........way, way bland. A New England Taco perhaps?
Right! No peppers, Adobo seasoning, or lime juice? He could've at least added a Taco season packet lol
Sounds yummy
lol its your own video...
Too watery but I hate how people act like Mexicans are the only ones who can make a good burrito and Taco.. Just bc its a mexican food doesnt mean someone of another race cant make the same if not better version of the Burrito and taco
Thank you 👍
Yep am making this rn 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎❤❤❤❤❤
Looks like it could use a couple pinches of masa to thicken the sauce.
Some corn starch 1 tablespoon mixed well in a an 1/8 c of water until dissolved and then add stirring while thickening. Agree either cook longer or thicken sauce!
Do we need paprika? Does it help the taste?
I like how there was a spanish ad hahaha
I heard a lot about taco i thought it would be typical less spicy recipe but its similar to traditional indian recipe keema..😂😂😂😂😂
though we add some seasonal veggies n tomato n some local spices
Everything was looking so good until 2:38 when he decided to make a Picadillo instead...
Haha
can i substitute anything else for the onions? my dad is allergic to them
a little bit of garlic :) Not a direct substitute but still adds flavor
(: Peppers ... ☺
Are you suppose to use that much water?
whats was the point of putting in water but end up steaming it away? it looks cooked before water was added. please explain
Paid Shill
Helps infuse the spices into the meat.
two twists of pepper.. 1 2 3!! im finished
"Add a little water"
*Dumps a whole bucket*
Definitely wouldn't add that much water if any at all. You're not so much adding moisture as you are just making it runny. The oil and fats are what give it moisture. This recipe looks amazing tho!
@0:45 did you toss in chopped garlic too?
I thought that too.
