3 pounds ground beef
2 ounces Gebhardt chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 cup raw potato, grated
2 teaspoons salt

Combine all ingredients and simmer for two hours. When the mixture is done, pour into a colander and drain well. Meat should not be greasy for tacos. Spoon meat into prepared taco shells. Top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, grated cheese and taco sauce if desired.
