Choose whether you'll cook on a camp stove, grill, or over the campfire. We like to cook over the fire when possible.

Your fire should be down to coals at this point, with a little bit of flame here and there. We prefer to use our tripod grill right above the coals. You may need to adjust the height of the grill over the fire, so the pan doesn’t get so hot that it burns the meat.

In a large cast iron skillet, sauté the chopped onion in the melted bacon grease or olive oil.

Then add the ground beef and mix it up with the onion, stirring the mixture occasionally while cooking.

Meanwhile, while waiting on the meat to cook, chop up the lettuce, tomatoes, and avocados.

When the meat is cooked through, go ahead and responsibly drain it.

Then stir the salsa into the meat.

Allow the mixture to simmer for another 5-10 minutes.

Open the bags of chips, crushing chips up a little bit if you want.

Add in a nice sized helping of the ground beef mixture.

Then add in a dollop of sour cream and your favorite toppings.*** We add lettuce, tomatoes, and avocados.

Sprinkle in the shredded cheese.

Give it all a good stir with a fork, mixing it all up really well.

And then it's ready to eat!
