BAJA PORK TACOS RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT - TASTE OF HOME
This delicious pork tacos recipe is my copycat version of the most excellent Mexican food we ever had, when we were visiting Flagstaff, Arizona. The original recipe used beef instead of pork, but this comes mighty close to the same taste. —Ariella Winn, Mesquite, Texas

Steps:
- To freeze ground beef. Remove the meat from the store packaging. Divide into 1/2- or 1-pound portions. These are amounts that are standard for most recipes. If you have a vacuum sealer, this is the time to use it. Otherwise, place the portions in separate freezer zip-top bags. Use a quart-size bag for 1/2-pound portions and a gallon-size bag for 1-pound portions. Use a rolling pin to firmly and gently flatten the meat to 1/2-inch thick. You should still be able to see the texture of the ground beef. Press all of the air out of the bags and seal. Use a permanent marker to note the date, cut of ground beef, and weight. Lay the bags flat on a freezer shelf. Once frozen, stack the bags or stand them vertically for long-term storage.
- Three ways to defrost ground beef. Defrost in the refrigerator. Place the zip-top bag with the frozen ground beef on a plate and move to the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. The meat will thaw in 1 to 2 hours. Cook or refreeze within 2 days. Ground beef that has been kept out of the danger zone (40°F to 140°F) during the thawing process can be refrozen safely, although some textural or flavor changes may occur. Defrost in the microwave. Place the zip-top bag with the frozen ground beef on a plate. Use the defrost setting on your microwave to defrost for 3 to 4 minutes, turning halfway through. Microwave wattages differ so use these times as a guideline for your appliance. Cook the meat immediately, as some parts of the meat may have begun cooking during the defrosting process. Do not refreeze raw meat thawed in the microwave. Defrost in cool water. Place the zip-top bag with the frozen ground beef into a large bowl. Cover with cold water and use a heavy weight, such as a can of beans, to submerge the meat. The meat should thaw in 5 to 10 minutes. Cook immediately. Do not refreeze raw meat thawed in cold water.
