Ingredients
- ground beef, chorizo or breakfast sausage, cooked

- hard cheese, cubed (pepper-jack, monterey jack, cheddar, mozzarella, etc.)
- cilantro, chopped
- onion, chopped
- tomato, chopped
- poblano pepper, chopped

- pickled jalapenos
- garlic, minced
- fire-roasted tomatoes or tomatoes with green chiles (plus liquid)

Here's how to make it:
- Cook the ground beef. You can not season, add spices or a package or two of
taco seasoning mix. (I used Old El Paso Taco Seasoning Mix)
-
Put all the ingredients into a
large aluminum pan.
-
Place the pan on your heated grill. Close the lid and allow it to start melting.
-
Once it starts to melt, stir. Continue to cook.
-
When everything is hot and melted, add some milk or cream (or more liquid from the tomatoes or even some juice from the pickled jalapenos) to get it to desired consistency. Serve with
tortilla chips.
