So this week I was going to cheat a little and get the P.T.M. tacos on Sunday instead of Monday. I had a bunch of stuff to do on Monday and there was a possible snow storm brewing for that day, so I decided to get the tacos on Sunday. I even found a new place to get them at and this is a fairly new restaurant in Campustown called the Jerk Hut. It sounded like an interesting restaurant and I figured I could work in some masturbation jokes and everyone wins
Well I called and had an unusual experience. The woman who answered the phone sounded frazzled and when I asked if I could phone in an order, she told me they were totally backed up and couldn’t take any phone orders. So I asked if I could just go there and place an order and she told me it would be a long wait and that they were running out of food.
I’ve never called a restaurant and had them tell me to stay away, but that’s what happened. I’ll try again next week on a Monday, now I’m intrigued about this place!
I checked a few other places and they were closed on Sundays, so I decided to go to the grocery store and see what I could find there to make some tacos right here in the MBIP World Headquarters Kitchen and Tasting Area!
Sometimes you just gotta improvise and so just like Jackie Gleason…awaaay we go!
I got some frozen mini tacos and I also found this taco kit that has all of the ingredients included!
I found it curious that they were so proud of the fact that it included chicken leg meat, but let’s just keep moving along here!
After I got home, I realized that I’ve had these frozen mini tacos before. I had them when I tried an appetizer sampler from Jose Ole and you can check out that post here.
Hopefully they’ve improved the quality of these, but I don’t have high hopes!
And yes, Jose still looks like Bruce Springsteen masquerading as a Mexican. Can you say, Nacido para correr? I knew that you could!
Here’s the frozen mini tacos, I took four of them and put them on a baking sheet and into the oven they go.
While they cook, we’ll make tacos from the kit on the stove top.
Here’s the kit and when I opened it up there was the chicken meat, tortillas and salsa, but no onions. They had chopped onions on the cover and I assumed there would be a bag of them included.
But there’s no onions.
Fuck, you really need chopped onions for tacos, but I didn’t want to make another trip to the store, so we’ll just forget about it and just keep moving along. I need to let this go.
I put the chicken mixture into a pre-heated pan and started warming it up.
You know, why the fuck would you go to the trouble of making a”taco kit” and not include a bag of chopped onions? You had them on the cover of the fucking box...
Look at all the onions on those tacos! How fucking misleading is that? Assholes!
Aw, fuck it, let’s just keep moving along here. Fuck!
My friends Amber and Joe have started their own local hot sauce business and they gave me one of their prototype bottles to try out here on the blog!
I’m excited to try it and anxious for their business to take off! Stay tuned for further details on this hot new local business! And yes, that’s hot!
Now I’m adding some Cholula Hot Sauce, taco seasoning, cayenne pepper and the salsa mix to the chicken.
They go to the trouble to make salsa and put that in a bag, but yet adding chopped onions is too much of a chore?
Fuck those people…but let’s keep moving along here.
Okay, the chicken mixture is pretty tasty and Amber and Joe’s hot sauce added a unique flavor to the mix!
Now we’ll warm up the tortilla’s and try out this week’s tacos!
Okay, I had hope that maybe these would have improved since the last time we tried them, but they’re just as horrific as I remembered.
The shells are greasy and gross and the taco meat has the consistency and taste of slimy diarrhea discharged from a leper’s infected, pus-riddled asshole.
Not a tasty taco at all!
Let’s move along here.
I’ve assembled the tacos from the kit.
And yes, it kills me that there’s no onions on these. You have to have chopped onions on a taco.
Who sells a taco kit and leaves out the onions? Complete moronic assholes, that’s who!
I bet the assholes dreamt up this “taco kit” are some white guys who think Taco Bell is fine Mexican dining.
Fuck them sideways, over and under!
Okay, they weren’t horrible and they were saved in part by Amber and Joe’s hot sauce!
Stay tuned for details on this new local business. I just need to tell them about it so they can start getting busy with it!
This taco dinner did have a happy ending, i got a mini tub of Haagen Daz Carmel Cone ice cream.
I let it sit out and get all melty and it was a sweet and delicious treat!
At least something worked out!
How fucking hard would it have been to include a pouch of chopped onions in this ridiculous fucking taco kit? Fuuuuuuck!
I’m going to go obsess over this shit all day, I’ll see you tomorrow.
