Chop up leftover bacon-wrapped barbecue meatloaf into bite-sized pieces, ready to sizzle on the griddle. Give the griddle a quick spray of Cornhusker Kitchen Duck Fat for that extra golden touch.

Remove the cheesy tortillas and perfectly browned meatloaf from the griddle, ready to assemble your tacos. Fill each tortilla with the savory meatloaf, then pile on the homemade buttermilk slaw—a tantalizing blend of angel slaw, grated carrots, green onions, mayonnaise, buttermilk, apple cider vinegar, Reida Farm Wildflower Honey, and a sprinkle of Cattleman’s Grill Lone Star Brisket Rub. Top it all off with a drizzle of zesty Chile Slinger Original Barbecue Sauce for that extra kick of flavor.
