Anne's Homemade Chorizo

This chorizo is delicious, easy to make and way better than store bought. I keep some in the freezer at all times for a quick and easy breakfast burrito with scrambled eggs, and cotija or Monterey Jack cheese. Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons salt
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound ground pork
• ¾ teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 pounds ground beef
• ¼ cup white vinegar
• ¾ cup chili powder
• ¾ cup dry red wine

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, ground pork, chili powder, oregano, garlic, salt, red wine and vinegar. I find that using my hands works the best. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 days. Take out daily, and mix thoroughly.

Step 2

If you are not going to cook with it immediately, divide it into 1 to 2 pound portions, and store in freezer bags in the freezer.
