The enable secret would come into play if your aaa command was entered
as:
aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ enable
aaa authorization exec default group tacacs+ if-authenticated local
aaa authorization network default group tacacs+ enable
aaa accounting update newinfo
aaa accounting exec default start-stop group tacacs+
aaa accounting commands 15 default stop-only group tacacs+
aaa accounting network default start-stop group tacacs+

If your tacacs server is operational then you are good. If it's not then
you
will have to use password recovery.

Suppose you placed this config on a router:

aa new-model
aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ local
aaa authorization exec default group tacacs+ none
aaa accounting exec default start-stop group tacacs+
aaa accounting commands 15 default start-stop group tacacs+
aaa accounting system default start-stop group tacacs+

and you forgot to include this:

username cisco password cisco

Is password recovery the only way to recover? What
if you also had this:

enable secret ciscosecret

?
