I have opened this post to give us a place to share Mexican food recipes and pictures. Mexican dishes can make great use of smoked meats such as shredded beef and pork.

They can be an excellent alternative to the same old sandwiches.

The idea for this thread came from Bentley's post on puffy tacos.

I am pretty much a comfort food cook. Most of my Mexican food is very Americanized versions. It's still good.

I am going to start by linking to some of my earlier posts on Mexican food. Please feel free to link to your previous posts, and add new one.

I am adding a sampling of pictures from the previous threads.

Thank you for this! I love tacos. Now I’m gonna have to smoke something and make tacos.

[Canadian John]

 Thanks Hank!          That looks so good I can almost eat right from my computer screen.

I fixed the link to making corn tortillas. It was pointing to the wrong thread.

Thanks for the thread! Looking forward to posting in it over the next couple of weeks as we will have several Mexican dinner meals in that time.

I smoked a couple more chuck roast for pulled beef. Here are some pulled beef tacos.

I add the lettuce and tomato when I eat them. It makes it easier. I can overload them that way without stuff falling out.

They were really good. I have been eating a lot of cheese tacos lately, skipping the meat. I went a little lighter on the meat and really liked the balance.

Click on the picture to get a closeup of the beef.

Papa Chevas Chandler...Meh, I have had worse.

Best Brisket Burrito I have ever eaten.  Taco OJ, Ft Stockton, TX.  Only had one bite.  Tasted like it was smoked for 15 hours, was cooked in oven.  I had Chalupa's...

We ate with friends in the Woodlands, North of Houston at the Guadalajara Hacienda. I had a combo plate, pork tamale, beef tostada, and a taco.  The tamale was over steamed but the sauce was fantastic.  The tostada was very good, and the taco was disappointing from a tortilla standpoint. You make your flour tortilla's fresh, but you give me a Taco Bell taco grande for my taco?  Beans and rice were average.

Kristin was gonna go with a Marisco Burrito that I thought sounded good, but was swayed  and went with some artisy avocado dish which I am glad I did not order!
