Homemade Chorizo image

Don't bother buying chorizo, it is so easy to make. You can mix in some eggs to make breakfast burritos, serve the cooked chorizo over refried bean, or make it into tacos. Plan ahead as this needs to sit in the fridge a day or two before using.

Chorizo was a bit bland. Maybe I didn't use enough spices?

This is the best chorizo recipe I've ever tried. It's so easy to make and the results are amazing. I've already made it twice and I'm sure I'll be making it many more times in the future.

Chorizo was a bit crumbly, but the flavor was still good. I think I might have overprocessed the meat.

This chorizo is the real deal! It tastes just like the chorizo I used to get in Mexico. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

Chorizo was delicious, but a little too salty for my taste. Next time I'll use less salt or maybe even omit it altogether.

This recipe is a staple in my kitchen. I use it to make everything from tacos to paella. Always turns out perfectly.

Not sure what I did wrong, but my chorizo turned out way too spicy. Maybe I used the wrong type of chili powder? Oh well, guess I'll have to try again!

Chorizo was a hit at my last party! Everyone raved about how flavorful and juicy it was. Will definitely be making this again soon.

Chorizo came out a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was still on point. Will try again with a little more fat next time.

Used this chorizo in a pasta dish and it was incredible! The smokiness and paprika flavor really came through. Everyone at the table loved it.

Not a fan of spicy food, but this chorizo had just the right amount of heat. It added a nice kick to my tacos without overpowering the other flavors. Definitely a keeper!

This chorizo recipe is a game-changer! I've tried making chorizo before, but it never turned out quite right. This recipe, however, was incredibly easy to follow and resulted in the most delicious, authentic-tasting chorizo I've ever had. Highly reco
