I’m a big fan of taco night. Granted, it’s not real Mexican taco night, but it’ll do. Well-seasoned ground beef, cooked slow all day, soaking up flavor after flavor. Deep, rich flavor in a sauce that is so delicious! Nothing fancy. No fine dining here. Just tasty tacos or taco salads. Perfect on a cold night. Heck, perfect on a hot night too! And nothing could possibly be easier to make than this slow cooker taco meat version 2.0. Why version 2.0? Well, because I knew I could make the original recipe better!

I prefer to use my homemade taco seasoning instead of the packets you get in the store when you make this slow cooker taco meat version 2.0. I like to be able to control the amount of salt and making it myself gives me that chance. Also, what do you do if you use up a packet and want more seasoning? Go to the store for a little ole packet?

We’re both big fans of Mrs. Renfro’s salsas, and in particular the peach-flavored salsa. It adds a nice mellow sweetness to this slow cooker taco meat. For a nice kick, try Mrs. Renfro’s Mango Habanero salsa. It’ll wake you up!

Also try my slow cooker cheeseburgers.
