Chow down on these keto jerky tacos filled with jalapeño-spiced beef.
For the quickest taco meat ever, try beef jerky! Since it isn’t raw, it only needs to be heated, spiced and served with your favorite taco toppings for some seriously satisfying tacos.
To keep this recipe keto-friendly, serve the taco fillings on a keto “tortilla”. It’s great for breakfast! For those on a less strict diet, you can use these warm, crispy Paleo tortillas made with tapioca starch and almond meal.

The key to creating the best jerky tacos is using high quality meat without any toxic additives or hormones. We recommend finding trusted brands like Chomps jerky that are not only grass-fed but Whole30-approved too. We used their Hoppin’ Jalapeño flavor for these tacos, but if you prefer a little less spice, the original flavor works just as well.
Start by removing the casing on each jerky strip by scoring with a knife and then peeling off. Chop the jerky into pieces and pulse in a food processor until crumbled. Add the taco meat to a hot skillet with ghee and add cumin and sea salt. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring often.
Spoon the spicy taco meat onto the Paleo-friendly tortilla of your choice and top with mashed avocado, red onion, cilantro and jalapeño.
