Big Beef Burrito

 

We love a good Big Beef Burrito and it’s so much better than going out to dinner for Mexican food. Why would we ever do that when we do it so much more to our taste at home! Smoking our own beef we knew would make the best extra lean, meaty, top quality big beefy burritos. Filled with all the goodies we love: refried beans, cheddar cheese, Spanish rice and added fresh salsa. Then, we topped it with enchilada sauce and sour cream. You can cover it with your favorite red or green sauce or salsa. I went with a smoky hot green salsa tonight. Unlike our local taco shop: no shoes = no problem.

We get a large Chuck Roll every month from Juan Carlos that we cut into huge roasts along with a few steaks and stew meat. We cut a beautiful 7lb. chuck roast and had a wonderful time deciding all the things we wanted to do with it. Doing this one a little different than we usually do. I am cooking it covered first, and then uncovering it for that “Kiss of Smoke”. First, we generously seasoned it with Swimmin’ in Smoke Cattle Call. Ken had it on the grill for 4 hours in Gourmet BBQ Pellets in Mesquite. After we pulled and shredded the meat it was so rich it should have been called Charles instead of Chuck. Put it back on the smoker uncovered for that “Kiss of Smoke”for an hour. Patti served it with canned refried beans topped with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped red onion. Plus, she made a boxed Spanish rice and added medium hot fresh salsa and instead of water cooked the rice in spicy tomato juice.

We have been enjoying good eats all week with tacos, burritos, nachos and pulled beef burgers.

Our Ingredients

 

Directions: Big Beef Burrito

These are simple, just pile your warm tortillas with shredded beef and fill with all the goodies you love: refried beans, cheese, Spanish rice, and fresh salsa. Then top with enchilada sauce or salsa and sour cream. You can cover it with your favorite red or green sauce or salsa. I went with a smoky hot green salsa tonight.

A Wood Pellet Grill Recipe

Directions: Southwestern Shredded Beef

Rub the seasoning and flour into the meat. In a large cast iron Dutch oven heat your Crisco and brown the meat on all sides. Add one onion, the sweet peppers and ½ the Goya Mojo Chipotle Marinade. Now you’re ready for the grill. Place on the grill at 350 degrees (177c) covered for 4 hours until fork tender. Then, remove it and shred it. I used my “Meat Rakes” to make easy work of it. Put it back into your Dutch oven adding the green chilies, diced onion, diced tomatoes with green chilies and the rest of marinade. Now back onto the grill uncovered for an hour for that “Kiss of Smoke”. I used a smoke tube because there is little or no smoke above 250 degrees, just heat.

We use a Maverick ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temps.

Note: I get a lot of questions about the kind of pellets you can use with a recipe. Keep in mind that a recipe is just an outline. Some you need to follow closely like when you are making bread, but most you can do anything you can dream, our favorite way to cook. Feel free to mix and match the pellets until you find a combination you really like. Also you are only smoking at temps less than 250 degrees (122c), anything higher is cooking and there will not be much if any smoke so it does not matter what kind of pellet you are using.

About Our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Monument, Green Mountain, Uuni Wood Fired Pizza Oven, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What You Love,
Ken & Patti
