Instructions

Meat Cook

Liberally rub Dawgs Bark all over steak. If you don’t have Dawgs Bark try this: Sprinkle fresh cracked black pepper, salt, garlic powder and natural sugar all over steak. You can apply these to your taste. I personally don't put a lot of sugar.
Set out on counter until it's room temperature and you can see it sweat. I let it sit on counter for 45 minutes regardless. Push back far away from puppy if leaving unattended.
You can grill this however you feel comfortable. We usually grill over charcoal at this timing: medium heat, 3min flip, 3min flip, 3min flip, 3min flip. Rest it for about 10 minutes.
Steak preference range of cook time, your setup and taste will vary.

Mango Pico Assembly

Chop everything up and throw all in bowl except!!! mango.
Stir it up and reserve 1/4 of mixture.
Add mango to remaining 3/4 mixture and stir/mix in.

Queso

In microwave or stove top carefully Heat up 1/4 block of Velveeta cheese, shot of milk, and add 1/4 pico without mango.

Fries

Follow instructions on bag

Notes

Plate it all up however you see fit!
This is also good with fresh tortillas to make tacos.
It's not a bad thing if queso falls on the meat 😉
