  1. Before this recipie I wanted to try Taco 🔔's crunchwrap but decided I would make one first and maybe compare the two. I just made the beef like your video and it's seasoned perfectly with great texture. The few improvised changes I made was less cumin and 1/2 tsp of beef powder. I also put 1/2 Tbs of salt in hot water and broke up the meat by hand before the water boiled. Straining the water after done and using 3/4 cup to put back in as someone suggested. Best video copycat so far!! Thanks again.🌮

  2. The seasoning amounts where a bit off for me, that is a personal preference. The boiling ground meat process seamed to create the right texture. Thanks for making the video, I never would have tried boiled meat.

  3. Actually cooking the meat this way isn’t bad. I made a recipe like this over 10 years ago because they said Taco Bell did it this way. Are used a different taco seasoning for it. It turned out very well. I think this recipe would actually be better than Taco Bell with the amount of spices that are used. I would probably cut the cayenne to 1/8 teaspoon.

  4. So you start by boiling hamburger meat in a lot of water. Then you toss the water, where a lot of the taste would reside. Then you add fresh water? I doubt Taco Bell would do anything that wasteful, or contrary to typical cooking techniques – unless maybe they are pushing some sort of low fat product that is also lite on taste. I have seen recipes (for Cincinnati Chili) that do cook the meat in water. They use less than you did, and boil it down to concentrate the flavor. Perhaps that would produce a better product.

  5. Doesn't taco bell use a bunch of tvp? Without that I can't imagine you get very close. Plus the cayenne is probably considered offensive to the general american pallet.

    Looks like a perfectly fine taco meat recipe though! Boiling the meat is interesting.

  6. This is a good recipe another one to try is drain the oil from the meat place it in the processor be very careful when using the processor so you don’t get the meat to ground up put it in a bowl add 2 tablespoons of water your seasonings stir than two more tablespoons of water put your taco shells in the microwave for 35 to 55 seconds delicious enjoy

  8. ATF … Can you please put the recipe in the Description — in the future … or even now. I do a cut & paste to be able to do it. And, it helps to have it written out, instead of everyone re-writing from video.

  9. I followed the recipe and when i got to the cumin Im like that is way too much cumin 1 1/2 tbs and sure enough the meat tasted like too much cumin. I had to go back over and over but it said tbs. First batch wife had to spit it out. I will try again but using a tsp instead tbs
