There are a few meals that taste better at the cabin than they ever do in a restaurant or at home. Whether it’s the weather, the solitude, or the sense of accomplishment of making dinner just a little bit farther from the safety net of the supermarket or food court, these cabin meals are more than just comfort food, they’re downright cuisine.

For me, chief among these meals is tacos. First of all, it’s a pretty foolproof meal. Just chop your veggies, brown your meat and add the spices. Then scoop and serve. That’s pretty much it. But, I like to fancy myself as someone a little more skilled than the average home cook, so tacos makes me feel a little ... well, underutilized.

That’s when the idea hit me: I could make my own tortillas.
