“I clicked on this recipe because I thought Alton Brown would have it right, and I had made my own seasoning mix already but wanted to know how much salt to add to the beef. Lol, I guess I picked a controversial recipe! <br /><br />Looked through the reviews, ” — a cook, 4.0★
“Loved this taco meat, with one reservation making it four stars.<br /><br />The flavoring from Taco Potion #19 was excellent. The mix of spices was a treat. In fact, my wife spotted that I forgot to add in the coriander. Yet it was still delicious! I was eatin” — a cook, 4.0★
