There is this wonderful breakfast taco stand down in South Austin that has carne guisado tacos. We moved WAY on the other side of town and haven't been able to find a recipe to match those tacos. This comes so close, it's not even funny. This was SO good. We, of course, used it as taco filling and added potatoes to the mix. Yum. Yum. Yum! Thank you so much for sharing!
