Instructions:

Brown the Ground Beef and Chorizo: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chorizo sausage together until browned and cooked through.
-
Drain Excess Fat: Once cooked, drain most of the fat from the meat mixture, but reserve some to enhance the flavor, especially from the chorizo.
-
Prepare Cornmeal Mixture: In a separate bowl, pre-mix the egg, milk, and cornmeal until well combined.
-
Layer Ingredients in Crock Pot: Except for the grated cheese, add all the remaining ingredients (including the cooked meats) into the crock pot. Ensure they are evenly distributed.
-
Mix Thoroughly: Gently mix all the ingredients in the crock pot until they are well combined.
-
Add Cornmeal Mixture: Pour the cornmeal-egg-milk mixture evenly over the ingredients in the crock pot, spreading it out to cover the surface.
-
Set Cooking Time: Depending on your preference, set the Crock Pot to either high or low heat.
-
Cook: Allow the dish to cook for 5-6 hours on high or 10-12 hours on low, allowing the flavors to meld together and the ingredients to tenderize.
-
Add Cheese: About 5 or 10 minutes before serving, sprinkle the grated cheese evenly over the top of the casserole, covering it completely.
-
Serve: Once the cheese is melted and bubbly, serve the Crock Pot Tamale Casserole Supremo hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as fresh cilantro, diced avocado, or a dollop of sour cream.
