5 Tips for a Successful Taco Bar
- Pre-Cut Bags: Use scissors to snip the tops off all bags before the rush starts.
- Spoons Required: Do not buy forks! Spoons are essential for getting the last bite.
- Keep it Hot: Use a Crockpot (or dutch oven if camping) to keep the meat warm.
- Variety: Offer both Fritos and Doritos to please everyone.
- Clean Up: Simply toss the bags in the trash. No plates to wash!
