500b Ground beef (or ground chuck)
1 tsp Salt
2 Tbls Chili powder
2 Tbls Paprika
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp Garlic powder or 2 cloves
1/2 Bell pepper
1/2 Onion
Let's take 2 pounds of ground beef in 2 quart sauce pan add 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of chili power, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder or 2 chopped garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 2 tablespoons of paprika. Enough water to cover meat.
Bring to a boil. Simmer over medium low heat about an hour. I will check in about 15 minutes take a potato masher break up the meat a little don't want it to cook up in lumps.
Repeat this process 2 or 3 more times. Also make sure we don't run dry of water. Add water if needed. Hour over already!
OK, add 1/2 medium chopped onion, 1/2 medium chopped bell pepper, continue cooking 20 or 30 more minutes.
Remove from stove pour into strainer. Let set for 10 or 15 minutes to make sure all grease was removed. At this point we do want to keep the liquid. Now lets remove the grease from the liquid.
Place in freezer for a few minutes. When grease separates and starts to hardened take spoon and remove. Should have very little liquid left.
1/2 cup would be fine. Place in small pan bring to a boil. Dissolve 1 teaspoon of corn starch in 1/4 cup of cold water add to liquid simmer 4 or 5 minutes. Fold into meat. Now we have a tasty moist taco, grease free.
Take meat spices and water, put in 2 quart sauce pan. Less than 2 minutes right! Now we are cooking and having fun. Guess what, when having fun our food tastes better.
