Welp unlike George and some of the others here, I know all about (and really appreciate) what the garbage plate is actually supposed to be. Traditionally with macaroni salad, potatos, and baked beans topped with hamburger meat, I would say a dish needs AT LEAST 2 bases to be considered even an off-brand garbage plate. This, my friends, is not a garbage plate. It's just a chorizo hashbrown.
