Steps:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. With ground beef, I rarely add any oil to the skillet because it tends to be fattier. If needed, you can add 1 teaspoon of olive oil (of your oil of preference). Once the skillet it hot, add the ground beef and break it apart with a wooden spoon.
- Cook, stirring and breaking apart the beef often, until it begins to brown. Add in the cumin, paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt and pepper. Stir well to disperse all the seasonings. Cook until the beef is just browned.
- I love the seasoned beef like this - it's a personal preference. If you'd like it saucier, follow the directions below. You can also add in a tablespoon of beef or vegetable stock, or even tomato sauce, to make it saucier.
- Serve the ground beef in tacos (warm corn or flour tortillas in the oven for a few minutes), on nachos or in salads. We like to top ours with a quick pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, white cheddar cheese, diced avocado and pickled onions.
- If you'd like to add peppers and onions: heat the skillet over medium heat and add 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add in 1 diced onion, 1 diced bell pepper and a few minced garlic cloves with a pinch of salt. Toss well and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Proceed with browning the beef above!

Steps:
- Cook Ground Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef. Break the beef up with a wooden spoon while cooking. Cook the ground beef fully, until browned and no longer pink.
- Drain: Drain any excess grease from the skillet. Then return to the stove and reduce the heat to low.
- Season: Add the 1/2 cup tomato sauce and taco seasoning. Stir together until the meat is coated in the sauce.
- Simmer: Allow to simmer for 5 minutes.
- Fry Tortillas: Pour 1/2 cup oil in a medium size skillet, heat over medium high heat. Carefully dip a tortilla, if the oil sizzles and bubbles then it's hot enough. Gently lay the tortilla in the oil and fry each side for about 30 seconds, just enough to give some color and add some crispness.
- Shape Tortillas: Remove the tortilla to a paper towel to absorb oil, and carefully fold the tortilla over to create a taco shape. I do this with my tongs, or two forks, whatever I'm using to lay the tortillas in the oil and remove them.
- Toppings: Fill the tortillas with the ground beef taco meat and add desired toppings

GROUND BEEF TACOS
Making a ground beef taco filling ain't rocket science. You just cook ground meat with Tex-Mex seasonings. This recipe is a little spicy, but feel free to skip the serranos and substitute a packaged taco seasoning mixture for the spices, especially if you're cooking for kids. Many taco seasoning mixes, such as Old El Paso and Ortega, come in your choice of spicy or mild.

Steps:
- For the filling:
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the onion until it begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Add the meat and sear, chopping with a spatula into small pieces until the pink color is gone. Add the garlic and chile and cook for 2 minutes or until the garlic is soft. Add the salt, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, and a tablespoon of water, mix well, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until well blended.
- Assembly:
- To assemble the tacos, put 1/4 cup meat mixture, then 1/4 cup each cheese, chopped tomato, and lettuce on each taco shell. Drizzle with salsa if desired.
THE BEST GROUND BEEF TACOS ON THE PLANET.
OK, I MIGHT be a bit over confident in the title... but my family doesn't think so! This takes just a little bit of work and some time to simmer and will (IMHO) make you completely incapable of ever using a taco seasoning packet again. Try not to use dried onion or garlic as it really does make a huge difference in the end product. You may need to play with the amounts of the chile powder and crushed red pepper depending on how hot you like your taco meat. This recipe is reasonably mild, but YMMV Finally, try to get some high quality chile powder made with a blend including ancho and chipotle chiles. Most bulk "chile powder" out there has salt, garlic and "other spices" in it and is not even CLOSE to as good as the "real" thing! I hope you enjoy these as much as my family does!

Steps:
- in a large skillet, cook the diced onion for about 3-4 minutes on medium heat, just until they start to go translucent.
- Add the ground beef and cook until it is nearly, but not quite, all browned.
- Add the minced garlic and continue cooking until the ground beef is completely browned through.
- Add all the remaining ingredients, including enough water to ensure the spices get evenly distributed throughout the mixture, but not so much that it's going to take forever to cook off.
- Simmer until the tomatoes are cooked through and the mixture is dry enough to put in a taco shell. - How dry that is, is completely up to you and your taste!
