Taco Seasoning

[Alton Brown - Good Eats - American Classics VIII: Tacos]

Last time I tried this it was pretty salty.
I used some Better Than Bouillion for beef broth which may be the culprit.
Next time try leaving salt out until the end.

Seasoning

• 2 Tbs Chili Powder
• 1 Tbs Ground Cumin
• 2 Tsp Corn Starch
• 2 Tsp Salt (maybe leave out and salt at end to taste)
• 1 1/2 Tsp Hot Smoked Paprika
• 1 Tsp Ground Coriander
• 1/2 Tsp Cayenne

Taco Meat Recipe

• 1 onion chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 pound of ground sirloin
• Taco Seasoning as above
• 2/3 cup beef broth

Directions

1. Cook onion on medium until browned around the edges.
2. Add garlic, salt and beef and cook for 3 - 4 minutes until browned.
3. Add all taco seasoning, stir and beef broth.
4. Simmer until thick

Another Mix (without corn starch)

• 3 Tbs chili powder

• 1 1/2 Tbs ground cumin

• 3 teaspoons garlic powder

• 3 teaspoons paprika

• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano

• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

• 1 1/1 teaspoons onion powder
