taco meat

Seasoned beef crumbles

Taco meat is seasoned ground beef prepared for tacos, typically browned and flavored with cumin, chili powder, garlic, and other spices.

The term covers both the finished filling and the concept: I'm making taco meat for dinner.

By extension, any protein prepared taco-style—chicken, pork, fish—may be called taco meat.
