South of the Border Stuffed Fritos

Frank From Houma

Ingredients

1 lb 93% lean ground beef
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 packet of taco seasoning
1/4 cup of onions chopped fine
4-5 Tbs. of salsa or 1/4cup of taco sauce

Instructions

Mix the ingredients together

Stuff Frito scoops

Cook indirect at 350 until they reach an internal temp of 150

Squeeze some sour cream and guacamole on the Stuffed Fritos after they come off the Egg

Hints:
Fill a ziplock bag with the sour cream or guacamole and cut a small hole in the corner to use it as a squeeze bag.

Nest the Fritos between the wires on a cool grid and then put they whole grid on at once then take the grid off for unloading the Stuffed Fritos – just seems easier than putting them on/off over a hot grid one at a time.  Watch out for crumb snatchers that may burn themselves trying to take one off the grid.

Caution: 
If they go much above 150 they will start to dry out

Option: 
Cut up a couple jalapenos and mix in or top with jalapeno slices

I personally like them with just the sour cream – no guac.
