2

1
tablespoon

2
tablespoons
vinegar
1
teaspoon

Instructions
In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, chili powder, garlic powder, vinegar, and salt.
Let the mixture sit for at least 1 hour, or overnight for better flavor.
In a skillet, cook the beef mixture over medium heat until browned.
Drain any excess fat if needed.
Your beef chorizo is ready to serve or add to other recipes.
Notes
Use lean ground beef for a less greasy chorizo.
The spices can be adjusted to fit your taste.
Mixing the meat and spices a day ahead enhances flavor.
If you're using fresh garlic, finely chop it for even distribution.
Always cook a small sample first to test the seasoning.
