Humphrey’s Taco Meat

Created by Humphrey on June 18, 2024

4 tablespoons of olive oil
1 teaspoon of kosher salt
2 large yellow or sweet onions, diced
1 pound quality ground beef
1 pound quality Italian sausage (casings removed)
6 heaping teaspoons minced garlic
4 tablespoons chili powder (Ancho, Guajillo, Red Hatch) or use regular generic chili powder if you wish

Step 1: Add olive oil to a large pan. Add the diced onions and sprinkle with kosher salt.
Step 2: Sauté the onions over low heat until very soft and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Step 3: It is important to take the time to cook the onions down low and slow until soft and sweet.
Step 4: Turn the heat to medium and add the meat, cooking and breaking it up until just a little pink is left, about 5 minutes.
Step 5: Add garlic through hatch chilies, and cook until spices are fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 6: Turn the heat back to low and add the marinara sauce and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 7: Serve in tacos, burritos, enchiladas or Mexican casseroles.
