Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground beef
  • 0.33 cup Buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 8 pieces Small tortillas (flour or corn)
  • 2 cups Shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup Diced tomatoes
  • 0.25 cup Crumbled blue cheese
  • 0.33 cup Ranch dressing
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes.

Step 3

Drain any excess grease from the skillet and return the beef to the pan.

Step 4

Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute to toast the spices.

Step 5

Add the Buffalo sauce and butter to the skillet. Stir well until the butter is melted and the beef is evenly coated. Lower the heat to keep warm.

Step 6

In a dry skillet or directly over a flame, warm the tortillas briefly on each side until soft and pliable, about 10-15 seconds per tortilla. Keep them warm in a clean kitchen towel or tortilla warmer.

Step 7

Assemble the tacos by adding a generous scoop of the Buffalo beef mixture to the center of each tortilla.

Step 8

Top with shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, crumbled blue cheese, and a drizzle of ranch dressing.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Buffalo Style Beef Tacos!
