We’re talking crispy beef, melty cheese, golden tortillas, and a sauce that ties it all together.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs. 80/20 ground chuck

• Hussey's Fiesta Dust

• Hussey's Heifer Dust

• 6 slices pepper jack cheese

• 6 slices American cheese

• 6 taco flour tortillas

• 6 taco corn tortillas

• Kinder Burger sauce

• Chopped onions

• Chopped lettuce

• Pickles

• Sour cream

• Pickled jalapenos

  
  

Directions

1. Preheat the griddle to low.

2. Split the ground chuck down the middle and separate it. Take one section of meat and sprinkle liberally with Fiesta Dust. For the other section, sprinkle liberally with Heifer Dust. Once seasoned, break off about 2-3 oz balls, keeping the different seasonings separate.

   
   

3. When all is prepped, turn the heat up on the middle two burners to medium. Take one ground chuck ball and put it in the middle of the tortillas. Place the meat side down and cover with a tortilla. Using a smasher, press the tortilla down on top of the ball of meat. The meat will spread out and cover the tortilla.

   
   

4. Cook for about 30 seconds to a minute, then flip. Add Pepper Jack Cheese to the Fiesta Dust tortillas and American cheese to the Heifer Dust tortillas. Crisp up on the second side. Remove to a cutting board and cook the rest of the meat using both corn and flour tortillas.

   
   

5. Once done, add some burger sauce to the Heifer Dust tacos, followed by lettuce, onions, and pickles. Dust with Heifer Dust. For the Fiesta Dust tacos, add sour cream, lettuce, pickled jalapenos, and some avocado. Dust the Fiesta tacos with more Fiesta Dust.
