Looks better than T-B's by a lot. Watching you cook(e) it occurs to me that my cooking would go much easier and faster if I had that fast-forwarding and editing stuff going for me.

My dude... I have been looking for a chalupa recipe for years now. Some great tricks in this video. I never even though to blitz the meat in a processor after cooking for better texture and flavor. Buying a food processor ASAP lol Could you save the grease from the meat as kind of a poor man's beef tallow? Either way, thanks for the recipe! Oh, congrats on 3K! Keep it going!

@howtocooke 2 месяца назад

Glad you found that video. Even I was amazed at how good the chalupa shells turned out. I need to make another batch soon. There is another way to get the meat really fine like that. The "meat masher" you can buy off amazing for about $7 work fairly decently. They just take a bit more work. Much easier to store too. As for making beef tallow, not sure. I know it has to be purified and filtered or it will go rancid really fast. I di store chorizo grease and bacon grease in the freezer and it keeps for a very long time. I'm sure you could do that with beef grease too. Just keep it frozen until you use it.

@NWGR 2 месяца назад

@@howtocooke Ah! I have one of those meat masher thingies. I'll give that a go first. I keep some bacon grease on hand too. Thanks for the tips!

Hey, welcome back...

@howtocooke Год назад

Thanks, I missed everybody! I'm still waiting for doctors appointments but the shoulder is good enough to make a few videos for now. I only dislocated it once making this. 🤞

@mammabear9397 Год назад

Thanks for sharing your recipes, tips and tricks I cant wait to try it out 🙂 Can you do the Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken burrito. That is awesome and id love to be able to ,make that at home 🙂

@howtocooke Год назад

Are you reading my mind? I'm making the chicken in the morning and shooting that video tomorrow.

Good ol taco bell

@coolstorybro6076 Год назад

Awesome video! Just one question!! ....why do my chalupa shell always break apart so easily when I deep fry them and try to fold them???

@howtocooke Год назад

Not sure but it sounds like maybe they are a bit too fried before you try to fold them? How hot is the oil? It should be no more than 400f. You lay the shell in the hot oil flat and cook for a few seconds (10 to15 tops) then flip it and fold so the cooked side is on the inside. Then just cook them until they get nice and golden color.

@coolstorybro6076 Год назад

@@howtocooke That could be. It was fairly hot. Also, I used baking soda instead of baking powder so maybe I messed up the dough? I'll try making them exactly like you did next time. (they still tasted good but they broke apart lol)

@howtocooke Год назад

Baking soda is very different than baking powder so that was it. Should be a piece of cake with some fresh baking powder. The old saying is powder makes it puff and soda makes it spread.

@coolstorybro6076 Год назад

@@howtocooke That makes sense! I'm definitely a newbie at this but thanks to content like yours and others, perhaps one day I'll be decent at it lol. Thanks again!

@howtocooke Год назад

It takes practice to get good at anything so keep it up! I'm always happy to help answer questions so don't hesitate to ask.

@georgenettlesjr1466 6 месяцев назад

What model food processor is that?

@howtocooke 6 месяцев назад

Its a Cuiinart Elemental 8 cup and it has to be at least 6 or 7 years old. I'm sure they have already updated it but I really do like it and I'd guess the new version would be worth having too.

@SecretNinja420 6 месяцев назад

The Baja sauce is nothing like the chipotle sauce. The closest sauce they have to the Baja is the spicy ranch. That doesn’t really taste like the Baja sauce either but it’s WAY closer than the chipotle. 🤡

@howtocooke 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. I haven't had the baja sauce since they took it off the menu all those years ago. Going by memory, they seemed closer to me but you may be right.
