Vacation with Grilled Chicken and Pork Tacos

I have disappeared again for a couple weeks.  At least this time it wasn’t one of those busy, hectic times that are no fun.  This time was all play and no work.  Finally had a chance to take a vacation out to Southern California, Las Vegas, and the Denver Colorado area visiting friends and family.  We spent a week of the vacation out in Southern California with family where I was able to get some grilling in.  I was able to make an extremely large batch of grilled chicken and pork tacos.

    Wow that really is a large batch. What do you recommend as a good Mexican cheese? Something like Chihuahua cheese?
