Garcia’s Original Smoky Brisket Tacos from Tasting Table on Vimeo.
Today is Cinco de Mayo! A great day to celebrate all the beautiful flavors of Mexican food and the culture.
I’m thinking these yummy brisket tacos fill the bill just right. Watch this video from our friends at TastingTable.com and then go celebrate – with food, of course!
Enjoy your Cinco de Mayo, everyone!
Will they stop at nothing, these bacon-crazed chefs?
I’m not saying I WANT them to, just WOW!
This tasty treat is smoked bacon wrapped onion rings with a sriracha mayo dipping sauce.
In my mind this is either a killer appetizer or a scrumptious side to accompany, say, a bacon-wrapped filet mignon?
This recipe comes to us from our friends at Grilling24x7.com. Geniuses!
For an even bigger taste explosion, you can try applewood double smoked bacon or maple hickory smoked bacon to wrap those rings.
Now that’s just good eatin’! Will YOU try these?

Oh, how I love special days that allow me to focus on food! Beef, in particular.
As you know, I’m kind of obsessed.
So, the fact that Cinco de Mayo is coming up gives me great joy. I can dream up all kinds of beefy delights for that day.
AND, it’s my son’s birthday! We always get to celebrate doubly in spicy style!
The fifth of May, 1862, is when the Mexican army was victorious over the French in the Battle of Puebla and now it’s become a day to celebrate Mexican heritage and pride.
So in honor of Cinco de Mayo I give you cinco recipes you can use to celebrate, too!
UNO: Delicious, nutritious steak fajitas (above). I mean, who doesn’t love steak fajitas? This recipe calls for Kansas City strip steaks sliced up good!
DOS: Cumin marinated flank steak. A special twist to give your flank steak some zing!
TRES: Carne asada. A classic.
CUATRO: Flat iron steak tacos. I love the heartiness of the flat iron beef. Yum!
CINCO: Flavorful, colorful pico burgers. Try ’em and this may just become your go-to burger from now on. Use Wagyu Kobe beef and you’ll be hooked!

Hi! My name is Dena P., and I love steak. In fact, I’ve been on a quest for the perfect steak for a few years now.
I love experimenting with food and I like to get my family, friends and neighbors involved. They add a lot to my cooking experience by helping me perfect techniques and sharing recipes.
