@edgarblythe,
I eat my own burritos many times a month.

warm the tortilla or wait if you are not ready.

Saute some stuff in a side pan - eggs or no eggs, or some possible of many veggies, with spices you like. Add meat that can be cooked quickly if you want to.
Rice or beans or..

Shut off both pans and wrap the warm tortilla with whatever you cooked. Enjoy.
Change recipe as occurs.

Me, I added farro to my last concoctions.

I love burritos, just not from Taco Bell. I eat a few almost every week.

@edgarblythe,
Hi Edgar, I can honestly say I have never been to a Taco Bell. After reading about your adventure, I never will.

@glitterbag,
I can't speak for Taco Bell in Hawaii, only Texas. My wife likes to go there, now and again, but I prefer to skip my meal.

@edgarblythe,
Pig burritos?
from a corporation?
My key meat, when I use meat, is from the pig.

All I can say is, La di da.

@ossobuco,
By now I don't remember if burritos qualify as from Mexico. I do get the interest in that. They may be californian, what do I know?

I'm sure my people I talk with in Mexico would laugh at or with me, and I would agree.

Go on with your burrito discussion but please mind it's not a Mexican creation.
It's actually an fusion of a taco de machaca with flour tortilla and US ingredients (rice, sour sauce, even cheese, garlic, spinach!).
I have eaten several flour tortillas tacos, but honestly, I have never ever eaten a burrito.

then again

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burrito

Quote:
The precise origin of the modern burrito is not specifically known.

However, it is most usually acknowledged as having originated in the United States within the Mexican American community. Some have speculated that it may have originated with vaqueros in northern Mexico in the nineteenth century.[5][7] Many have traced its roots to the farmworkers of the fields in California's Central Valley, in Fresno and Stockton;[8] the Southwestern United States;[4] or with northern Sonoran (Northern CA) miners of the 19th century.[9]

In the 1895 Diccionario de Mexicanismos, the burrito was identified as a regional item from Guanajuato and defined as "Tortilla arrollada, con carne u otra cosa dentro, que en Yucatán llaman coçito, y en Cuernavaca y en Mexico, taco" (A rolled tortilla with meat or other ingredients inside, called 'coçito' in Yucatán and 'taco' in the city of Cuernavaca and in Mexico City).[7][10]


Quote:
Burritos were mentioned in the U.S. media for the first time in 1934,[14] appearing in the Mexican Cookbook, a collection of regional recipes from New Mexico authored by historian Erna Fergusson.[15]

@ehBeth,
Thanks for that link.
I will always absorb remonstrance from Pancho, ah, fbaeser, and that was part of my blabbering.

I happen to put all that stuff in my burritos, but...
I revere Pancho.

Well, unless we start arguing.

@ehBeth,
THis thread is getting whiskers, but its still food group I like.

Thats how all the little Mexican food shops near Kennett Square serve up their burritos, as a "rolled Taco". Depending on the meat , and its makeup, each one is a nice little hand food.

Also, their salsas have a unoque flavor depending on the owners preferences. One I like is a hot smokey Mole based sauce. It really tokes up a beans and hamhock taco (must have the steamed cilantro)

Normally the hand held ones are from 3.$ to 3.50 each and two is a filling lunch

Houston has taquerias all over the place. I don't think all of them have burritos, but I have been in at least a few where that is the house specialty.

@farmerman,
My burrito stuffings are often spicy as I cook spicy so the greens or beans or whatever already have heat and that can be multiplied in the burrito.

Whiskers, could we fry them? I'm bad at frying,
