Coyote's Q&D (quick & dirty) Yucatan 
Tacos
Put the meat in a skillet 
and add the garlic powder and cook constantly stirring the meat so it breaks up 
into chunks. After the outside of the meat is browned but not cooked through add 
the minced Hab, lime juice and hot sauce. Cook until done. Put into a taco & 
enjoy. I added more hot sauce after cooking. Nice & HOT!

Coyote's Chili Con Carne *NO BEANS*
  - 2 large onions (optional) 
  
- garlic (1 - 6+) cloves (optional) minced 
  
- olive oil 
  
- chuck steak / stew meat - 3 lbs, cubed 1 can 
  
- (7 oz) chipotles in adobo 
  
- 1/3 cup Hatch extra hot New Mexico *pure* chile powder 
  
- 2 tablespoons Mexican oregano 
  
- 2 tablespoons cumin (more if you like cumin) 
  
- 4 cups beef stock 
  
- 12 oz dark beer (Negro Modelo / Dos XX) 
  
- 2 lbs Roma/plumb/salsa/saledette tomatoes, diced 
Instructions:coat frying pan with olive oil, sauté onions & garlic until translucent. 
Meanwhile brown beef with some olive oil in a large dutch oven. After beef is 
browned add onions & garlic, stir. Add oregano, cumin, chipotles, chile 
powder & 4 oz beer. cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. Add the rest of 
the beer, beef stock & tomatoes. Bring to a boil and turn heat down to a 
simmer. Simmer for 2 hours. Adjust seasoning if desired. At this point I usually 
add oregano, cumin & more chile (not *CHILI**) powder. Then simmer for 1/2 
hour. Serve with chopped onions, shredded cheese ( jack & cheddar) and diced 
fresh chiles - I usually have jalapenos, Serranos & Habs available. However 
this Coyote's chili con carne really gets better when it is cooled & sits 
overnight in the fridge- then heated & served the next day

Habanero 
Steak
  -                 
  1.5 lbs top sirloin steak 
  
-                 
  2/3 Cup thawed frozen orange concentrate 
  
-                 
  1/2 Cup tequila 
  
-                 
  1/3 Cup fresh lime juice 
  
-                 
  2 tablespoons olive oil 
  
-                 
  2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger 
  
-                 
  4 minced cloves of garlic 
  
-                 
  1 teaspoon salt and crushed Mexican oregano 
  
-                 
  1 teaspoon Hatch extra hot New Mexican chile powder 
  
-                 
  1- 4 minced Habaneros (to your heat level of liking) 
  
-                 
  cilantro sprigs 
  
-                 
  Lime wedges 
Combine all ingredients except the lime wedges and 
cilantro sprigs. Marinate steaks for *at least 4 hours*. Grill steaks over the 
BBQ & brush with marinade. Steaks should be cooked to medium rare, IMHO to 
be at peak flavor. Serve this with a combination of roasted sweet peppers & 
chiles (e.g. New Mexican, poblanos, etc..). It also goes well with Coyote 
summer salsa.

Mellow Chile Shrimp 
(TO NUKED HOT)
One of my favorite recipes for BBQ is quite simple and easy. You need: 
  - 1 lb shrimp - cleaned & pealed (fresh is best) 
  
- 1 stick of butter 
  
- 1/2 tsp. - pure chile powder - type depends on how hot you like it: 
  
    - mild : use pablano chile powder 
    
- medium: New Mexico chile powder 
    
- medium hot: Hatch extra hot chile powder 
    
- hot: chipotle chile powder -( smoke of the chipotle works well with 
    BBQ) 
    
- xtra hot: Thai chile powder 
    
- xxxtra hot: Habanero chile powder 
 
- Also a variety of veggies to BBQ with the shrimp such as onions, red/ 
  yellow/ orange bell peppers, pablano chiles, mushrooms, New Mex. chiles, 
  eggplant and some ears of corn to BBQ 
Slowly melt the butter. 
After butter is melted mix in your chile powder. Put shrimp on the skewer. as 
you cook the shrimp brush on the chile-butter.. cook shrimp until pink. While 
you cook the shrimp you can cook the veggies on the grill also. Nice easy 
cooking job and it tastes great!
