May 31, 20223 yr My cardiologist just called and ordered me to stop posting. So, here’s some lighter, more heart-healthy fare I had at Taco House last week to calm his shit down…Doesn’t you cardi guy realize lard is a natural ingredient? And I see salad on most of those plates. You’re a health nut looks like to me.

But it is the golden currency of heaven above. Given to us by God above so that our souls and mental health may be nourished so that happiness may be in our lives forever. Even though our lives may be shorter due to all the enchiladas we eat.

God would not make something for us if it were bad for us. It’s only bad if humans fuck with TexMex, like making salmon enchiladas or using flour tortillas like up north.

June 30, 20223 yr Popular Post Work trip back to Austin this week and a plate of Freida’s Enchiladas at the Chili Parlor: Probably my fav enchilada plate in Austin in the post Dart Bowl era. You shouldn’t pass up Pepe’s Nachitos either - about as old school as you can get. Serranos are so damn delicious. This is the way.

You shouldn’t pass up Pepe’s Nachitos either - about as old school as you can get. Serranos are so damn delicious. This is the way.These are iconic photos, the type I would stare at and hunger when I lived in shitholes like Portland. Question: what x chili did you specify for your enchiladas? This is a rare option but it’s at the chili parlor. The naoch are properly made in the proper individual construction. Ballpark stacked mess nachos are heresy, except in their proper ecosystem.

I’m in complete agreement on the individual nacho construction method as vastly superior to piled mess nachos so commonly seen today. Take note on the above young padawans…
June 30, 20223 yr I call 'em "Pile o' crap nachos" and they suck. Ballpark nachos are something else entirely. I refer to those as "chips and queso" except when I'm actually ordering them at the ballpark.

I refer to those as "chips and queso" except when I'm actually ordering them at the ballpark.I use the term stacked and ballpark interchangeably and to your point it is wrong. Most game nachos are as you say, chips with a side of queso. I hate the piled nachos.
June 30, 20223 yr the giant pile of chips with everything on top so you're left with a pile of broken chips with nearly no toppings once you're about halfway through are wrong. all other naoch are right.

Back in the day lots of TexMex joints didnt just bring chips and hot sauce, but also hot steamed corn tortillas and pats of butter, often with a bowl of escabishe, pickled jalapeños slices, carrots, and onions. Sounds like you've been to Lavios mexican Restaurant in Brownsville.

July 3, 20223 yr Ain't nothing wrong with pickled japs. There is a place for them. Unfortunately too often they are put where they don’t belong. There are places in this country where a jar of pickled Old El Paso’s are all that exist i that part of the world.

But that's the wrong way to build a pile o'naoch. You have to layer them, with total ingredient consistency, bottom to top. Then they're great, because more naoch than one layer.
July 3, 20223 yr These tostada lovers keep taking about a pile of toppings on a pile of chips, that’s not now real nachos are done. Nachos are layered and chips touch and all have some part of toppings and/or fold over to make a nacho sandwich. Single serve bites are the dinosaur chicken nuggets of nachos and only girly men or kids would choose them. These same people probably complain their frozen margaritas are too strong.
July 3, 20223 yr The Venn diagram of people that like individual nachos over real nachos, probably also prefer chicken tenders over real fried chicken on the bone 100% of the time.

You must like getting your nachos at Fridays when they have 2 for 1 strawberry daiquiris. What you’re describing is a fucking mess, not nachos.
July 3, 20223 yr Pile of fajita nachos at this place in canyon, recharging after hiking palo duro. Despite the optical offense of having some naked chips visible from the side, the selection of ingredients and the amount of toppings provides for a pleasant and no chip left behind nacho experience. Note the use of a queso cheese to penetrate and mind the gaps, as well as a secondary cheese to bind and to vary the cheese structure. I think that a queso style cheese is really important with this style and that there should be some pooling of the cheese after filtering through the chip mass, ensuring a thin layer of queso on the plate to use with any stray chips.
July 3, 20223 yr I never knew nachos were so divisive. I prefer the individual but wouldn’t say no to a good pile done well.

July 3, 20223 yr This is like playing cards with my brothers kids or something. I’m embarrassed that I have to spell all this out. This works three ways. THREE WAYS assholes. 1. If you like the individual nacho bite approach, what you really like (but are ignorant of) is a cooked chalupa cut into 4-6 pieces by a large knife. I call these pieces “nachos” (each individually a “nacho”). Build the chalupa, cook the chalupa, cut the chalupa. Maybe sprinkle on some peppers or pico at the end. Serve sour cream and guacamole on the side. Somewhere there exists a man named Ignacio and this product is his original creation. 2. If you like the pile of chips with a pile of stuff on top of it, what you really like is a lazy chef who probably learned to cook in the navy or Waffle House. It’s his (or her or they/them) “Mexican” twist on “shit on a shingle.” Edible yes - even tasty, but pretty much a pain in the ass to eat as stated by previous posters. Often times you get cold ass soggy chips on the bottom. This person should stick to serving seven layer dip or queso with chips. Maybe make a casserole. Their product is not nachos. It does share the same ingredients. 3. Oklahomans and the slow witted who cant figure out number 1 so they take chips and create individual nachos, 1 at a time. I applaud these people for aiming at excellence but ultimately they are ignorant and destined for failure and humiliation. Now carry on.

Want more chips? Add another layer of chips, then toppings. Rinse, repeat as needed. Chalupa… jesus titty fucking christ on a bicycle.

Well, maybe we’ll just have to agree to disagree but, I’ll leave you with this. I’m on team Texas Chili Parlor and you’re on team TGIFridays. When Guy Clark sings one day “Well I wish I was in Norman… at TGIFridays,” I’ll briefly reconsider my position. When that day arrives you’ll still be wrong.
July 3, 20223 yr Discussions like this are how people wind up writing manifestos and bombing courthouses.

Well that would truly be a metaphysical miracle, gringo, considering the fact that El Moderno has been closed for a decade. Like some weird twist on The Shining with Carta Blanca.

Like some weird twist on The Shining with Carta Blanca. The business is long-closed. The site for Ignacio to sit, sip a cerveza, and laugh at pedantic gringos will forever remain. Oh, and my memory failed me -- last name was Anaya, not Hernandez. Quote He went into the kitchen, picked up tostados, grated some cheese on them -- Wisconsin cheese, the round one -- and put them under the salamander (a broiler that quickly browns foods). He pulled them out after a couple minutes, all melted, and put on a slice of jalapeno." The name of the snack, Anaya Jr. says, came from Finan, who called the plate of cheese- and chili-topped chips Nacho's Especiales. The name was later shortened to simply "nachos."
