Decided to do some steak and chicken tacos. Now, I am a guy that makes his own rubs and sauces. I find it as part if the hobby for me...but....Oakridges Jah Love has a special space on my spice rack now. So some boneless thighs got that treatment and marinated for 8 hours.

Found a ribeye in the fridge and I stayed on the Oakridge train and it was rubbed with EVOO then treated with Carne Crosta.

During the marinating time I made some pico de gallo and guac.

Also, a tip for those that love fresh guac. Vac seal it. Cut the tip and pipe it into/onto what you like. Seal the tip and hold in the fridge continuing to cut/seal when you want some. Will last weeks that way. No brown...

You all should do the homemade tortillas. Super easy.

2.5 cups of flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp of baking powder

Mix (I use the Kitchen Aid with paddle)

1/4 cup of lard or butter

Mix into flour mixture. Just a minute or two as this helps with texture.

7/8 to one cup of hot water (120 degrees'ish)

Turn on mixer (low) and add water slowly. Stop with the water once it looks stringy...usually a little less than a cup.

Flour a surface and knead, adding flour to keep from sticking. Once you can form it into a ball, stop. Cut into 8 equal sections, form the into balls. You can roll them out and use immediately but I prefer to let them rest for a 1/2 hour. If you do that then I lightly cover the outside of each ball with EVOO. Them cover with saran.

Roll them out into about 8 inch circles.

Hot skillet, minute each side and done.

I know thatbisna lot of typing but this could all be completed in 15 minutes.

That looks great. I love Mexican food but I hate store bought tortillas. You have inspired me to make my own.
 
Thanks for the tip, I imagine that will extend the shelf life quite a bit.
