Then add the cilantro, salt, pepper and lemon juice and warm. Then reduce the heat to low and keep the pork hot. Next, lay a tortilla flat and add in the center section 1 cup warmed pork, 1/4 cup rice, 2 tablespoons beans and 1 tablespoon cheese. Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla to meet, and then pull the sides over covering one another. Next, in a separate pan or on griddle, add 1 teaspoon reserved pork fat and heat over medium heat and allow to warm.

These burritos were made with left over pork we had from a pig roast. The meat was roasted over an open fire at low heat for 10 hours, so it was smoky and fantastic, but you could use any kind of pulled pork. Check out the recipe for my own BBQ sauce, its a fantastic combo. I like to serve this with salsa, sour cream and sliced olives

  • Cooking the Pork: Cook the pork roast in a slow cooker or Dutch oven on low heat for 8-10 hours, or until the meat easily shreds with a fork.
  • Shredding the Pork: Use two forks to shred the pork into bite-sized pieces, ensuring it remains moist and tender.
  • Making the Burrito Filling: Combine the shredded pork with your preferred sauce, such as barbecue sauce or enchilada sauce, and any desired additional ingredients like vegetables or cheese.
  • Assembling the Burritos: Warm the tortillas to make them pliable, then fill them with the pulled pork mixture and other desired fillings like rice, beans, or guacamole.
  • Serving the Burritos: Serve the burritos immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, or shredded lettuce.
