@saltsugarandstories: It’s dinner time, y’all! And tonight we’re going WAY back for my Shreveport people. ❤️ If you remember Mrs Wren and Taco Grande over on 70th Street, then you already know about the Grande Burger. That little place was a Shreveport institution, and Mrs Wren made some of the best Mexican food around. But her most famous item on the menu was the Grande Burger! I’ve tried for YEARS to get the secret to the way Miss Wren seasoned that taco meat, and I never could. 😂 So no, this is not her exact recipe. I WISH. But this is my version, and it is absolutely delicious and about as easy as dinner gets. 🌮 1 lb ground beef 🌮 1 packet taco seasoning, or your own seasoning. 🌮 1 tbs powdered Chicken bouillon 🌮 Hamburger buns 🌮 Enchilada sauce 🌮 Finely shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese 🌮 Shredded lettuce Cook your ground beef with the taco seasoning just like you would for tacos. (I always add some Knorr Chicken bouillon to my ground beef) put about 1½ tablespoons of enchilada sauce on the bottom bun, pile on your taco meat, add your cheese and lettuce, then put that top bun on. That’s my Grande Burger! Now Hunter’s? His cheese has to be MELTED into his taco meat, and he doesn’t want the sauce or lettuce. He has some strange ways and always has. I could never just make dinner, I had to make dinner for the family……and then “Hunter’s food”. 😂🤦🏻♀️😂🤦🏻♀️ Can you imagine living with this child? Anyway, this is a quick, easy, inexpensive and SO good weekend meal. If you’re from Shreveport and you remember Mrs Wren’s Taco Grande, tell me what you used to order. And if anybody has that original taco meat seasoning secret… I have been waiting YEARS to talk to you. 😂❤️ #dinner #dinnertime #recipes #EasyRecipe #mexicanfood @Hunter Leone

They called ours a taco burger, they boil the hamburger meat in water that’s how they get it the way they do

Could the red sauce have been Catalina dressing. Some Mexican restaurants put that on taco salad.

I'm from Kansas, and we have a Taco Grande that's originally based out of Kansas. We also have the cousin company to Taco Grande, which is Taco Tico. They also offer Taco burgers, and are the best...ever!!

So just a little bit different and I don’t know if this was a Texas thing or if it was NATIONWIDE. Do you remember Pizza Hut doing a Taco pizza? I think it had refried beans, taco meat, lettuce, tomato on top! It was so good! I was a gymnast and my dad used to drive me to corpus 90 minutes two or three days a week and that pizza was my go to on the way home!

Never thought about adding enchilada sauce to my hamburger, never! This is definitely one sauce I must try out. I have a can of red enchilada sauce and I shall pick up In-N-Out burgers without any of their spread to add the enchilada sauce to them.🍔😋😍

Oh I remember those tacos well! My neighbors growing up were Spanish. The mama used to make us tacos and it’s the closest thing I’ve found to that mixture. She fried her hamburger meat. Added a small tomato sauce. And used a LOT of cumin. We thought they were the best tacos we ever had.
