So I was going to go to Brasky’s today, I just found out they have tacos on their menu and I haven’t been there in a long time. But I’m running behind my schedule and I don’t have time for that. I’ve decided just to do some improvisational tacos.
Basically I’m going use some leftover taco shells that have been sitting in the cupboard for weeks and go to Huck’s and find something to stuff into them.
Okay, this is either going to be horrible or a tasty surprise, that’s the yin and the yang of improvisational cooking.
Let’s go, the fucking clock is ticking.
Well, this day is off to a sucktacular start. The MBIP Mobile is covered in snow again and now I have to clean this shit off of the car.
Have I ever mentioned on here how much I fucking HATE winter? Well, I fucking HATE winter. HATE HATE HATE it!
Here’s Huck’s, I’m here almost every day getting one thing or another (usually beer.)
I was going to take a couple photos inside, but forgot to, so I shot this while putting gas in my car. I’d go back but time is not on my side today, so let’s get back to MBIP World Headquarters and get this shit over with!
Oh, by the way, I think these tacos might be kind of good! I’m happy with the ingredients I chose.
We’ll see.
The ingredients for this week’s improv taco are, clockwise from left: Cracker Barrel individual cheese thingys, Oscar Mayer Ham & Cheese Loaf and leftover taco shells.
Plus I’ll be using some Sandwich Pal Jalapeno Mustard stored in the MBIP World Headquarters Refrigerator.
These are two Old El Paso spicy taco shells that I had in the MBIP Pantry. They’re at least a month old, but have retained their crispness and look like new.
Into the pre-heated 450 degree oven they go!
I got four of these little Cracker Barrel Sharp Cheddar Cheese thingys and tried slicing them up, but ended up just crumbling them into pieces because it was a lot easier.
Now we’ll prep the Ham & Cheese Loaf. I used to eat this shit all the time as a kid, but haven’t had it for decades.
I sliced it up so it would easily fit into the taco shells. I’m thinking on my feet here, people and it is a beautiful thing to witness!
Total improv cooking at its finest hour, if I do say so myself and I just did. So there!
The shells are done and they smell fantastic! Time to start building this week’s tacos!
I’m getting a little excited over here!
I absolutely love how these ham slices fit perfectly into the taco shells!
I’m adding some Sandwich Pal Jalapeno Mustard to give the taco a little slap in the ass.
I added the cheese crumbles and started to slide them into the oven to let the cheese melt under the broiler and the first one fell down and the taco shell cracked.
Fuck!
I decided to leave it be, because I was afraid if I slid it back out, the other one might fall and break and then we’d be as fucked as fucked could be.
Let’s just suck it up and keep moving along here, that fucking clock is still ticking. It never stops.
Okay, they’re out of the oven and that fallen taco is a real heartbreaker. Fuck!
Oh well, at least one of them survived and let’s take a look at this week’s Pamdemic Taco!
This looks and smells absolutely fabulous! I’m pretty proud of it considering I kind of made it up on the spot.
Extreme close-up!
Okay, let’s dig in!
Wow, this is simply delicious!
The taco shell is crispy and spicy and the cheese is soft but not super melted and the ham is warm and savory!
The mustard adds just the right amount of zing and this turned out to be quite the happy surprise!
Okay, I gotta run, that fucking clock is still ticking…aaaahhhhh!
Oh and by the way, no peaches were used in the making of this taco. #InsideJokeAlert
