🧾 Ingredients

1 lb ground beef 🥩
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper, to taste 🧂
8 slices cooked crispy bacon, crumbled 🥓
8 soft taco shells 🌮
1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese 🧀
1 cup shredded lettuce 🥬

½ cup diced tomatoes 🍅
¼ cup diced red onion (optional) 🧅
Optional sauces: ketchup, mustard, burger sauce, or spicy mayo 🧄🌶️

👩‍🍳 How to Make Loaded Bacon Cheeseburger Tacos

1. Cook the Beef

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess grease, then season with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2–3 minutes to let the flavors combine.

2. Warm the Tacos

Heat the soft taco shells in a skillet, oven, or microwave until warm and pliable. Keep covered with a towel to stay warm.

3. Build the Tacos

Place a layer of cooked beef into each shell. Top with shredded cheddar cheese so it melts slightly from the heat. Sprinkle crumbled bacon on top, followed by lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and red onion.

4. Drizzle with Sauce

Drizzle each taco with your preferred burger-style sauce—classic ketchup, zesty mustard, creamy burger sauce, or a tangy mayo-mustard combo.

5. Serve & Enjoy

Serve immediately while warm, with fries, chips, or a simple salad on the side.

🧡 Pro Tips & Tricks

Use ground chuck (80/20) for juicy, flavorful beef.
Add American cheese slices for extra creaminess.
Warm tortillas slightly in a skillet to make them more pliable and prevent cracking.
Try toasting the tacos in a pan for a crunchier shell.

🥶 Storage Tips

Store leftover beef mixture separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Assemble tacos fresh when ready to eat. Reheat meat in a skillet or microwave before building.
