Why Original Burritos Look Like Cigars

What if everything we think about burritos is wrong?
In America, burritos are usually massive, stuffed with rice, beans, cheese, meat, and every topping imaginable. But the original burrito from Juárez, Mexico is something very different.
Long. Skinny. Minimal. Just a thick, pillowy flour tortilla filled with perfectly stewed meat and a smear of rich, creamy pinto beans.
In this episode, we’re making Burritos Juárez completely from scratch; slow braised pork in red chiles, creamy refried beans made from dried pintos, and soft handmade flour tortillas cooked hot and fast until they puff and blister.
Simple ingredients. Proper technique. And one of the best burritos you’ll ever eat.
If you want to see where the modern burrito really came from, this is it.
Go feed yourself.

The Secret To The Unlocking Chicken Pot Pie Perfection 👀 https://youtu.be/fcCK38HwsNs
Not trying to start an argument here… I've driven through Baja multiple times and I always saw this style of wrap called a burro and found on the side of the road and in small town food stalls. Burritos were always stuffed with more stuff and usually found in more touristy areas. Just my experience/observation. All delicious.
HELL yah, well done! ….coming from a San Antonian, aka Taco Town
I’m a San Franciscan, but I hate rice in burritos. Simple is better.
Nothing wrong with being a homebody.
😎👍👍
Steve – "A nice light meal."
Also Steve – Lard in everything!
I'd rather that anyday, the reason I don't eat mexican is because it's hard to eat and it's just filled with rice
So a burrito is just a beef enchilada then. Enchiladas are great because they are mostly meat
Not Betterhelp. not Betterhelp AGAIN. good god. when will this grift end? another one bites the dust.
Sorry but I can’t not add cheese.
Another use for my duck fat. 😀
we really oughta be calling the mission style "burros"
perfection as always … so im makin these this weekend.
Lard
I need you to make a super yummy gluten free (celiac friendly) tortilla please!!!

Well done👏👌
Good video. Although you ALWAYS want to discard the beans' soaking liquid.
Taquitos
No disrespect, the outfit reminds me of PaRappa the rapper if anyone is old enough to remember that game
Now I want a burrito…. and some lard.
I do my pinto beans in a pressure cooker along with pork ribs, those chillies and chicken stock. Done in 90 min. Yum
these are the burritos i grew up on, not that chipotle type shit
Finally, someone who doesn’t defile burritos or spreads misinformation that they aren’t Mexican, are called tacos or some other BS.
From northern México, we thank you 🙏
Just they’re never crisp, else they’re pretty legit 😊
Your sauce looks amazing. In addition to the onions you have put inside, I love to cook caramelized onions on the side and add them with the others ingredients into the sandwich. Caramelized onions gives a sweet addictive taste, like BBQ, specially with this chilli peppers sauce. Its so delicious 😋
Something that is incredibly surprising is apple compote added to this recipe. Meat, beans, I add caramelized onions and apple compote. The apple goes perfectly with the meat, beans, onions and chilli peppers sauce. It's magic. You must try it to understand 😊
not trying to be difficult… but isnt this a taquito?
That…is a burrito.
Basically just large tacquitos then
a lard delivery system
Looks like you need a much bigger cutting board 🤔
I wonder how many Chihuahuanse's from Juarez are here. Thumbs up here!
Please comment if you are a Juarenze in Westchester County, NY.
Love that the REAL burrito is being covered by you my man. I loved your Italian recipes hence so awesome that you are covering the food of my town.
14:50 — ay-yo. Hell yeah.
Those are taquitos. I'll bet they taste great but I'll take my "overstuffed" burritos over them every day of the week…twice!!!
Jews & Muslims have left the chat
Toss in a couple of Ancho chiles as well
Ah, I love that you are teaching the traditional old school burrito. I still make my burritos small, but my kids create the overstuffed kind. And if you don't use lard in your tortilla then it really isn't a tortilla, it's a flatbread!
This is the way I remember getting them from street vendors in California in the early 70's with avocado sauce to dip them in, yummy!
Thank you for the video. Question: what is that first song?
Might be timely to review the whole Shortening vs Lard debacle; there's some history there that basically exonerates lard and convicts shortening.
Exactly right brother.
Minor faux pas with yer bean game, Bruh. Cook those things in new water That used soaking water is just fart juice at this point. Down the drain with fart juice. Cook in freshly salted water.
Stupid question here. I always see people removing the seeds before rehydrating the peppers. I know there are those that think all the heat and spice is in the seeds and those that think the same is in the veins of the pepper. What would happen if you left the seeds in? Just a seedy food? And yes I'm being serious with my question.
I know they are cheap protein, but I just don't know how anyone would intentionally add beans to a meal unless they are trying to survive.
