+### Taco Seasoning Recipe for 4 Pounds of Ground Beef
+
+#### Ingredients
+- **4 tablespoons chili powder**
+- **4 teaspoons cumin**
+- **4 teaspoons paprika** (smoked paprika recommended for added depth)
+- **2 teaspoons onion powder**
+- **2 teaspoons garlic powder**
+- **2 teaspoons brown sugar** (enhances flavor and browning)
+- **1 teaspoon black pepper**
+- **1 teaspoon salt** (adjust based on taste preferences)
+- **1 teaspoon red pepper flakes** (optional, for added heat)
+
+#### Instructions
+1. **Prepare the Seasoning Mix**:
+   - In a small bowl, combine all the spices thoroughly to ensure an even blend. This mix will create a robust flavor profile suitable for seasoning four pounds of ground beef.
+
+2. **Cooking the Ground Beef**:
+   - Place the ground beef in a large skillet and heat over medium-high until the meat is browned and fully cooked. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
+   - If desired, drain the excess fat from the skillet once the meat is cooked.
+   - Sprinkle the prepared taco seasoning evenly over the cooked ground beef.
+   - Add approximately 1/2 cup of water to the skillet. This helps to evenly distribute the seasoning and allows the spices to infuse into the meat.
+   - Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the water has evaporated and the meat mixture is well-coated with the seasoning.
