This is a combination of three recipes and a little of my own, which means I’ll never be able to recreate it again. :laugh:

Oh yes you can. I do that kind of thing all the time. If it's good (or even better, great) your taste buds will implant the memory of what you did in your head.

What kind of chorizo did you use? I once got some Cacique Mexican style and it was awful. I have a package I bought from Wild Fork (online delivery) that I haven't tried yet (also Mexican style). If you have a particular brand that might be available at a mainstream grocery store and you thought it was good, I would like to know, please.

Nah, with my memory, I can't remember squat. I made that yesterday, and I'd already be hard-pressed to tell you what went in it, beyond the main stuff. MrsT said, "Save this recipe, it's really good!" - I had to tell her to enjoy it in the moment, because there's no way I could ever make it again.

The chorizo was Mexican style; I'd have to go to a specialty place to even find Spanish chorizo. That stuff came from my local Kroger, so it's as mainstream as it gets...Johnsonville. It's the only chorizo I can get without driving 45 minutes or so. It's ok, I really don't have anything else to compare it to.

Okay, cool. I like Johnsonville products. It's hard to get andouille and other "different" authentic sausages up here beyond the kielbasa and Italian sausage. Glad Johnsonville is pulling through for us!

I can find Aidells in cowboyville ...

... even at Costco they have it.

TastyReuben I keep a pencil and paper near me when I make something different and take notes.

I’m waaaaay too lazy for that! :laugh:

It was kind of funny because I had three recipes up on my phone, and I was swiping back and forth between them, saying, “Ok, this one says 4oz green chilies, that one says one serrano, and I have pickled jalapeños…this one says 8 cups of broth, that one says water and broth, this other one says cream and broth…”
