Creating Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Beef Tacos is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Cook the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula.
2. Prepare Garlic Butter: In a separate saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
3. Combine Sauces: Add honey, BBQ sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the garlic butter. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
4. Mix with Beef: Pour the garlic butter mixture over the cooked beef. Stir to ensure all of the beef is well coated in the sauce. Let it simmer for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
5. Warm the Tortillas: In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.
6. Assemble Tacos: Spoon the garlic butter honey BBQ beef mixture onto each tortilla.
7. Garnish: Top with fresh cilantro, diced onions, and a squeeze of lime for an extra burst of flavor.
