Newlywed in the Kitchen Recipe #18: Summer Grill Tacos

Ladies and gentlemen, the impossible has happened.  The Boy from Texas gave a 5/5 to a meal I prepared.  And.....it was not a beef and potato burrito.  Let us bask in this for a moment, shall we?

The Boy from Texas Rating:  5/5.

The Boy from Texas Comments:  (1) Do I HAVE to grill the corn?  (2) Can I have seconds but this time with no lettuce?  (3)  I think you can put this one in the 5/5 category.

Summer Grill Tacos
*As you will see below, there is basically no right and wrong with this...just put in whatever you like!*

Tortillas (I like corn, he likes flour)
Grilled meat (I liked pork chops, he liked chicken breast)
Grilled corn on the cob
Sliced avocado
Sliced pineapple (He didn't have any of this)
Sour cream
Shredded cheese
Something green (I like cabbage, he prefers spring mix lettuce)
Chopped green chile
Salsa
Cilantro

Shuck corn and place one ear on a piece of foil.  Add butter (maybe 1/2 T for each ear), salt, and pepper.  Wrap ear in foil.  Repeat for all ears and place on the grill.

After corn has grilled for maybe 15 minutes, place chicken and/or pork chops on the grill.  The Boy from Texas actually handled this part and I think all he used was some fajita seasoning.

Once cooked, I like to put the pork chops and chicken into a food processor to shred the meat.  You can do this or not, you could easily just slice it up as well.  Unwrap the roasted corn and cut off the corn from the cobb.  Two people can probably get by with corn from one ear.

Place shredded/sliced meat onto heated tortilla.  Add corn, sliced avocado, sliced pineapple, sour cream, cheese, and something green.

You could also add salsa, green chile, or fresh cilantro if you're not pregnant and dying from heartburn over here.
