The Food Network is coming at you with these six-foot long nachos, although they probably look better than they taste. The purple nachos are just onion and cabbage.

Here’s one of the Nachojawn family favorites.
Chop up 3 or so habaneros
With a 1:1 ratio of water to sugar, simmer the peppers for 15 minutes. Let cool with speppers till in the syrup for 45 minutes. Strain into a squeeze bottle.
Make sure you use 100% agave tequila. No bullshit Cuervo Gold.
Get a decent orange liqueur.
Here’s your syrup.
In a shaker, go with about a 3:2:1 ratio of tequila/cointreau/lime. Then hit it with a squeeze of syrup. Shake with ice and pour.

L.A. Magazine goes with the In ‘n Out Animal Style for these nachos. Pickles and Thousand Island dressing on your nachos? C’mon son.
Thrillist links to a video telling you the one ingredient that your cheese sauce needs to achieve maximum cheesiness.
It’s not cheese, but I would say that’s necessary too.
The Nachojawns had family taco night, and I had picked up a bag of chips from my favorite tortilleria, San Roman. I can’t say enough good things about San Roman. Please, please, try their tortillas or chips. They are a game changer.

Nachojawn Jr. whipped up some nachos with Daiya mozzarella shreds. Being dairy free doesn’t mean you have to be nacho-free.

I went with the seasoned ground beef, pico de gallo from San Roman, spicy pineapple salsa and guacamole from Whole Foods, salsa verde (spicy) from San Roman, and refried beans. They were dope.
And that’s a Nachojawn Margarita in the background. They’ll be featured in an upcoming post.
So says 5280, a Denver-based magazine about these nachos from Tocabe, a Denver American Indian restaurant.

The Medicine Wheel Nachos are based on four nacho commandments:
1. Nachos are a beautiful (and gluten-free) canvas
2. Make every chip count
3. Pile out, not up
4. Say cheese
Nachojawn was recently made aware of a great tool for travelers.
The Database of Nachos will tell you where to find nachos near your location. Happy hunting!

Everything about these nachos sounds good.
If you’re not in Louisville, and can’t get them from Chef Lee himself, give them a try. Nachojawn will be providing you with plenty of nacho recipes in the buildup to Sunday’s game.

They do need a little better layering though.
Taco Bell introduced their “Boss Nachos” recently, and Willamette Week took a look at them.
