1/4 tsp pepper

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1:
In a skillet over medium heat, add your ground beef, water, and butter. Give it a good stir until the beef is nice and broken up.

2:
Add the oatmeal, chili powder, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, vinegar, and MSG (if using).

3:
Simmer, uncovered, until the meat is cooked through and thickened. Note: the meat will seem a bit oily, but once it cools, it'll all come together.

4:
Serve on hard or soft taco shells with cheese, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, and of course, Hoff Sauce!
