I'm not a big guac guy ... but it's always an option for those that like it.
If you have dairy issues, my nachos aren't for you. -
I am for nachos but against star fire.

Nachos are given a bad name because of dumb fucks like F3 that overindulge in shitty nachos or any sporting event you go to to buy nachos that consist of chips and warm processed liquid cheese.
Nachos done right (the Tequilla way) include extra lean ground beef seasoned perfectly with ground cumin and whatever fucking kind of southwestern seasoning I feel like having on a given day all while simmering in onions and a margarita made with tequila, triple sec, and mix to give it a nice orange flavor. After the meat is finished, you mix in your refried beans so that you get a nice solid paste from which to layer across the chips and cheese. Bonus here being that the leftover mixture works great on either tacos later in the week or on taco salads as your protein option. ALWAYS layer more cheese on top of the meat mixture. The key to any nachos is making sure that you have great vegi options on it (i prefer the small bell peppers that you can cut super thin, jalapenos, and fresh diced tomatoes on top). Then before placing your platter into the oven, take some salsa verde and layer that on top. Remove from the oven when the cheese is melted and use low fat sour cream (because it tastes the same in this kind of setting) to help cut through the heat. IF your nachos are not of the fork and knive variety, you've completely fucked up in making your nachos.
Use this recipe and I guarantee that you will fool people into thinking that you actually know what the fuck you are doing in the kitchen.

Swap out the refried beans for whole black beans and ditch the sour cream for guacamole and we are in bidness.
if there's a little bit of BBQ sauce on the nachos too.. all the better

Serious question, do you have a fetish for giraffes?HFNY said:Tequilla, when are you having a Hardcore Husky party...how about when it's time to celebrate our off-season natty?
Here's a pic from my party last year but it sounds like you are truly the BBQ and Nacho master:

I like fajita nachos

Who would have thought that a thread about nachos would create such a buzz on HH?

DJ should start a food/entertainment forum
