    Easy and tastey. I put the meat together with the spices, adding a bit of cumin and cayenne and some chopped up jalopenos as we like spice. Then I cooked it all out side in a cast iron fry pay on my gas grill. Used flour tortillas, toasting them for a minute or so on the grill, then served it all "do it yourself" style. A great summer meal.

    These are the best!! No more trouble than the usual way and so much better! I doubled the recipe , cause we love tacos so much. It was a good thing I did. I don't think there would have been enough! I fed 6, and we devoured all of it!! Will be using this recipe a lot. Thanks John!
