I wanted to make something a little indulgent this weekend. These burritos are stuffed with chopped brisket, home fries with poblano and onions, scrambled eggs, and topped with homemade white queso, guac, and roja salsa. It was a fun mashup up diner vibes and Tex-Mex smokiness.

Shout out to Steven Universe giving their main character a shield.

It’s a soup made with chicken broth, shredded chicken, tomatoes, onion, garlic, herbs, spices, and semi-submerged crispy corn products. They’re some authentic Mexican versions, and some incredibly TexMex versions. The black beans and corn put this firmly in the yeehaw territory, but it’s at least got some freshly toasted pasilla chiles and fried corn tortillas.

Chicken tortilla soup with a healthy dose of lime! My local taco place does a soup special when it gets cold, and I’ve had this one enough that I wanted to try and recreate it. I usually skew more towards stews in chilly weather, but this soup’s on my short list next time I’m in the mood for something brothy.

It sounds like there might not be much in your stew to thicken it. The beef fat helps a bit, but you can toss the beef chunks in flour to give the stew a bit more body. This recipe I used just straight up has you add some unflavored powdered gelatin to it to give you that coating-the-back-of-a-spoon texture.

I’ve used red wine and beef in dishes together in the past. Usually you just need something a little salty to balance the sweetness out. The UK condiment marmite usually does the trick for me, although soy sauce can work in a pinch.

Nah, it just has a few stout pints in it.

…okay, but for real though. It’d be nice if the Texas power grid kept hangin’ in there.

Yup!

My favorite one of these shows up in 3D printing. The most popular open source 3D print server gives you a head’s up if your printer’s firmware lacks “Thermal Runaway Protection”. If you click the learn more link, it patiently explains, “There aren’t preventative measures to stop your printer from accidentally catching itself on fire”.

(It’s fine, you usually just need to install a decent MOSFET in the cheaper printers.)

Looks excellent! 🙌

If lacking the sealed pressed bread isn’t a dealbreaker, look into the Chopped Cheese sandwich. It’s a similar burger-adjacent sandwich with broken up ground beef, lettuce, tomatoes, and onion. Not exactly the same thing, but doable at home without any special hardware. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1NdpVlfnwB4

Here’s the recipe I used: https://www.seriouseats.com/beef-barley-soup-recipe There’s a pressure cooker variant too. Haven’t had any leftovers yet to know how they are.

Pico goes great on top of breakfast tacos or just eggs in general too. 👍
