This isnโt my recipe per se, I learned it from my housekeeper and have sort of
adapted it. But we love it because itโs fresh! Youโll want:
-3-5 tomatoes (we use the Roma or pear tomatoes. Theyโre usually cheaper and
have a nice, firm skin. Dice them up by hand.
-Diced onion, either yellow or white. Lots of it. Itโs good! Again, dice, dice!
-Fresh cilantro. Cut the stems off and use the leaves, dicing them to your
preference. Be sure itโs fresh. If itโs brown, toss it!
-A Serrano pepper. Some folks use different kinds of peppers, but I like this
spicy little devil! We had to start off using only a half a Serrano, because
weโre timid that way. The Serrano is what gives your recipe the kick-ass! Be
sure to slice it so that you get the seeds out, and dice the pepper itself up
fine! Weโve graduated to about ยพ of a Serranoโthe heat is up to you!
-Sea salt to taste!
-Fresh lime juice, squeezed right into the bowl and mixed in with the vegetables.
All you need are these 6 things, and youโve got yum! I use blue corn organic
chips for dipping because we like those best, but pick your own favorite and enjoy!
And then, because I had to knowโwhat does a Bull Rider taste like? Well,
according to several drink-mixing websites, here are two standard kinds of Bull
Riders!
Bull Rider Drink #1
-1 shot Amaretto (optional),
-1 shot Crown Royal,
-1 shot Jack Daniels
In a large shot glass, first put the Jack Daniels, followed by the shot of
Crown, then use the Amaretto last. For a stronger version, don't use the
Amaretto, as it masks the flavor of the other two.
Bull Rider Drink #2
-1 oz Malibuยฎ coconut rum
-1 oz coffee liqueur
-1/2 oz creme de bananes
-2 splashes Jagermeisterยฎ herbal liqueur
-fill with half-and-half
Mix all ingredients well and enjoy!
So if you ever wondered what a Bull Rider tastes like, you can mix one up in
your own home or order one in a bar and a Bull Rider will be yours!
