Chorizo Joes

By á-47

Ingredients

• 1 lb. ground chuck
• 12 oz. Mexican pork chorizo
• 1 1/2 cup diced onion (about 1 large)
• 1 cup BBQ sauce
• 1/2 cup water
• salt and pepper to taste
• Red wine vinegar to taste
• Hamburger buns

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook beef and chorizo together, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. When the meats are crumbled, push them to one side of the pan, tilt the pan to collect the oil, then spoon off and discard the oil.

Stir in the onion and cook, stirring, until the onion softens, about 3 minutes. Stir in the BBQ sauce and water, reduce the heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes; the mixture is done when it's moist and glazed, neither dry nor soupy. Taste, and add salt, pepper, or vinegar as needed.

The mixture may be made 2 days in advance and refrigerated; reheat before using.
