Instructions

- Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Cook beef until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
- Remove beef from heat and drain excess fat.
- In a medium bowl, mix sour cream, mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard.

Notes
- Ensure the cooked ground beef is well-drained to prevent a greasy filling for the tater tot cones.

- Adjust the sour cream sauce seasoning to taste by adding more ketchup for sweetness or mustard for tanginess.
