  2. Add sugar, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, garlic salt, paprika and pepper and stir to mix.

  4. Season with more garlic salt and pepper, if desired, and add any desired toppings before serving.

Notes

  • Slow cooker directions: Cook the meat and drain the fat as described in Step 1 above, then combine all ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on low for 3–4 hours.
  • STORE in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until hot.
  • FREEZE. Cool and divide in a freezer safe airtight container leaving about ½ headspace. Store for 4-6 months.
  • Thaw in the refrigerator (allow 24 hours for every 5 pounds) and reheat on the stove or in the microwave.
