You put the lime in the tequila, drink ‘em both together. Put the lime in the tequila, then you’ll feel better...

I just pull the cork out of the bourbon jug. Prep time: 0. Mixing/blending time: 0. Baking/cooking time: 0.

Sonoran hot dog recipe - like a chili dog on steroids
•Get a beef hot dog and wrap it like a mummy with bacon. Mesquite bacon is good.
•Fry it on a griddle until the bacon gets crisp. Some people like to fry the bacon a little first and then wrap it around the hot dog and then fry them both in the bacon grease.
•Take a hot dog bun or bolillo roll that has been slit to make a pocket in the middle. If you want you can toast them a little or, in the case of the bolillo roll, steam it for a minute to make it soft. Work with what you have on hand or what you feel like.
•Put mayo, mustard and ketchup on the bun and insert the bacon-wrapped dog. If you want to squirt the mayo on top, like they do at the stands, mix it with a little lemon juice or water to thin it out. Put it into a squeeze bottle or sandwich bag with a corner cut off and squeeze it on top when you are done, along with the mustard and ketchup.
•Add warm pinto beans, cheese (shredded Mexican cotijo cheese, cheddar, whatever), chopped tomatoes, chopped onions, sliced or blended jalapenos or some type of jalapeno/green chili salsa.
•“Just stick whatever you want on there, and whatever amount, to make it taste good.” (You hear this talking to many Mexican cooks)

Roast a chili pepper to go on the side and have some cold coke ready (even better if in a glass bottle) for the complete experience.

A little over 100 years ago, the Emporer of Mexico, on a trip to England, found something he had never tasted before...He thought it so delicious that he felt his people should try it...
He ordered 50,000 cases of this sent to Mexico...
After returning home, he anxiously awaited it’s arrival....He was then notified that the shipment was lost. It was shipped on the Titanic....

he felt so bad, he declared a National Holiday for the people of Mexico..

That is how “Sinko da Mayo” came to be.......

Albondigas (meatball) Soup, a delicious Mexican classic

1 white onion, chopped
2 bunches green onions, chopped

Saute in olive oil in a large pot.

1-7 oz can chopped green chilies, mild to hot
1 large can broken tomatoes, fire roasted are good
1 tsp fresh chopped garlic
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin
1 quart water

Add to pot and bring to boil. Then mix:

1 pound lean hamburger
2 eggs
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper and garlic powder

Mix together, then form into one-inch
balls, added one at a time to boiling
soup.

Turn heat to low and simmer, covered.
Cook 45 minutes, then adjust seasonings.

A little fresh chopped cilantro on each serving.
(Mexican cooks tend to really overdo with the
cilantro.) Some steamed flour tortillas on the
side and you have a serious meal.

Yup. Here's a good one.

Mix half a pound of fresh dog poop with half a quart of chocolate ice cream. Chill well and serve cold. Then pretend it is a real recipe and something good... just like we pretend Stinko de Mayo is a real holiday and something good!

Andy's Kick-ass Guacamole

2 ripe avocados (coarse skin - the good ones)
1 ripe medium tomato
2-3 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp ground oregano
1/2 tsp basil (or 1 tsp chopped fresh cilantro)
2 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
(Optional: dash or two of your favorite hot sauce)

Dice the tomato and then crush and finely chop the garlic cloves. Add all ingredients except for the avocados into a medium-sized bowl. (Optional: drink a shot of José Cuervo and proceed to next step.)

Cut avocados in half (the long way) and remove pits. Gently peel or scoop out the yummy green stuff inside and mash into the other ingredients with a fork, blending until well-mixed but slightly chunky. Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy!
