Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Give the potatoes a few fork pricks all over, then pop them on a baking sheet and bake until they’re tender all the way through—this usually takes about an hour and a half. While the potatoes are baking, warm up a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the ground beef along with chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, chili powder, cumin, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Cook everything together, breaking up the meat with a spoon until it’s nicely browned, about 10 minutes. If it starts sticking, splash in a little water to keep things moving, then drain off any excess grease. Once the potatoes are done, slice them open and spread a little butter inside. Top each with the taco meat, sprinkle on some cheese, then add a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of salsa. Serve warm and enjoy!
