Easy Pork Burritos

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Pork Burritos.

1. Step 1

   To create a delicious pork burrito, start by grabbing a large pot and adding your pork roast, sliced onion, and chopped garlic.

2. Step 2

   Sprinkle a packet of taco seasoning generously over the top, then pour in enough water to completely cover the roast.

3. Step 3

   Place the pot on the stove over medium-high heat and bring it to a lively boil.

4. Step 4

   Once it’s bubbling away, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer gently for about 2 to 3 hours.

5. Step 5

   You’ll know it’s ready when the meat is tender and easily falls apart with a fork.

6. Step 6

   Remember to check the water level every 45 minutes, adding more if it looks low to keep everything nice and juicy.

7. Step 7

   When the pork is perfectly cooked, carefully transfer it to a cutting board.

8. Step 8

   You can discard the vegetables, but don’t forget to save about a cup of that flavorful cooking liquid.

9. Step 9

   Now, it’s time to shred the pork using a fork, making sure to remove any excess fat.

10. Step 10

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded pork with refried beans, diced tomatoes, chopped green chiles, and the remaining taco seasoning.

11. Step 11

    Mix everything together well, adding a splash of the reserved cooking liquid if the mixture feels a bit dry.

12. Step 12

    Next, lay out your tortillas and spread a generous amount of the pork mixture down the center.

13. Step 13

    Top it off with a sprinkle of shredded Cheddar cheese for that extra cheesy goodness.

14. Step 14

    Fold the bottom and top edges of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from one side to create a burrito that’s packed with flavor.

15. Step 15

    Now, let’s get frying! In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat.

16. Step 16

    Once the oil is hot, place two burritos seam-side down in the skillet and fry them until they turn a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 2 minutes.

17. Step 17

    Flip them over and repeat on the other side until they’re perfectly crispy.

18. Step 18

    Once done, drain the burritos on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any excess oil.

19. Step 19

    Continue this process in batches of two until all your burritos are fried to perfection.

20. Step 20

    And there you have it! A delightful batch of homemade pork burritos that are sure to impress your family and friends.
