So I am still in Switzerland, and still on my way to making some delish mexican food. I had a torta the other day at a food truck, and the guy cooked some ground beef and then sprinkled this salt mixture on it that made the meat taste really really good. And I'm wondering if this sort of thing rings any bells. I tried to catch a glimpse of the bottle, and I couldn't get anything from it, so there's the possibility that it's a homebrew mixture or some poo poo. Anyways, it made the meat pop and I could see myself using it in select circumstances. Sorry if that's really vague, but if that rings any bells I'd love to hear it.

That is super vague, yeah. If it didn't drastically alter the flavor into something completely different, just added some background flavor to make the meat flavor "pop" as you said, my guess would be this stuff:



Adobo seasoning.

Oregano could be either Italian, Greek or Mexican. Italian/Greek taste pretty similar to me, but Mexican is a completely different flavor.

Anyone have a good online source for dried chiles?

I swear by http://www.penderys.com/. Massive selection, good prices, and everything I have gotten has been great.
