Thin slices of beef are stir-fried with green onions and coleslaw mix then tossed with chewy rice noodles and an irresistible Mongolian sauce; balanced between salty and sweet. Servings: 4 Sure Fire, Surprisingly Inexpensive and Awesome Taco RecipeThis is an authentic dish. Warning: this recipe is not for the food queasy.

Here's the deal with tongue. Yup, I said it. BEEF TONGUE! Prepared correctly, it is melt-in-your-mouth tender (from slow braising) and flavorful (because it's a muscle that got a lot of exercise). If you chop it up enough the texture isn't an issue. Its home of homes is truly in a taco. The way you know you are at an authentic taqueria is that there are "tacos de lengua" (tongue tacos) on the menu. Serves 18-24
"Wow. a burger with bacon. Big deal."
BY GOLLY! THIS HAS CANDIED BACON!! A real game changer! Rather than just throwing on some overly crispy or under cooked and chewy bacon on top of a burger for the sake of having it there. Candying your bacon...on the grill...gives the bacon a smoky and sweet taste that is truly unbelievable. As far as the burger goes, it is a little more labor-intensive. But the extra effort has a huge payoff! All the components can be made simultaneously, so while it might be a busy 20 to 25 minutes, it’s definitely doable. Serves: 2 Makes Everyone Giggle Around the Camp Fire!

The best way to cook filet mignon is a combination of pan searing first in a cast iron pan, then transferring to the oven to finish — and it’s much easier than you’d think. Cooked correctly, beef filet mignon tastes like the most tender steak you’ve ever had. It has a mild flavor, minimal marbling, and a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Servings: 4 Ingredients
Directions
For a 2-inch (5 cm) thick filet, that is 5 minutes for rare, 6 minutes for medium rare, 7 minutes for medium, or 8 minutes for medium well. Use a meat thermometer to check for the right temperature – 120 degrees F (52 degrees C) for rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare, 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium, and 155 degrees F (68 degrees C) for medium well. The temperature will rise by another 5 degrees F while resting (see next step). 9. Remove the steaks from the oven and transfer to a plate. Top each with 1/2 tablespoon (7 g) of herb butter (slice the log of herb butter into four parts and put one on each steak). Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving and slicing.
