CARNE ASADA TACOS AT HOME

It is impossible to find good Carne Asada Tacos at Mexican restaurants in Hawaii.  We usually make our own at home using Flank Steak and a family marinade.  I was skeptical when my wife put Bill Bailey's Carne Asada in our cart at Costco.  Lousy tacos again I thought.  Well, I was very wrong.  Bill Bailey's Carne Asada is good especially when you couple them with the Tortilla Land Uncooked Tortillas that are also available from Costco.  The Tortilla Land Tortillas are uncooked so when you cook them up you get a fresh tortilla taste and texture instead of tasteless cardboard like store bought cooked tortillas.  The combination of the Bill Bailey's Carne Asada and Tortilla Land Tortillas make these tacos great.  We actually cut the tortillas down to a smaller size for tacos as they come out of the bag burrito size.  Some restaurants use the larger burrito size tortillas and make big tacos.  This does not work for me.  We cut them to about 10" and then layered the bottom with fresh homemade guacamole. Placed the cubed Carne Asada on top of the guacamole and then added our Pico (tomato, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, salt and pepper).  The last thing you need is a good taco sauce.  I like the La Victoria Salsa Brava Hot Sauce.  This adds a bit of heat and flavor.
