We do a lot of different kinds of tacos at Dave’s Triple B in Flora. When we started, I was just trying some out as a “Taco Tuesday” special but they are now permanent fixtures on our menu. I encourage you to try tacos at home! They are a fun way to feed the family or entertain groups and, because there are endless combinations, they never get old. I have included a lot of the elements from our tacos but don’t be afraid to experiment. A great cole slaw could be as easy as sliced cabbage and your favorite salad dressing. At The Flora Butcher, we offer 6 or 7 kinds of aioli and an almost endless selection of sauces from small Mississippi producers.
