Ingredients : Sunset's Burritos Grandes *Jb Recipe
2 oz Dried ancho, New Mexico or California chilies (4-6)
1/3 cup Tequila
1/4 cup Lemon juice
3 Garlic cloves
1 tbsp Olive oil
1/2 tsp Dried oregano
1 tsp Salt
1 1/4 lb Pork butt (shoulder) trimmed
1/2 cup Long-grain white rice
1/4 cup Canned tomato sauce
1 can (15 oz.) pinto or red beans
4 large Or 6 regular flour tortillas
1 1/4 cup Guacamole
1/3 cup Sour cream
1 cup Crumbled cotija cheese or shredded jack cheese
1 2/3 cup Red salsa
1/2 cup Chopped fresh cilantro
Tequila-chili marinade: Stem and seed chilies. Whirl in a blender
until finely ground. Add tequila, lemon juice, 1/4 c water, garlic,
oil, oregano, and 3/4 t salt; whirl until pureed. Cut meat across the
grain into 1/2" thick slices 3-4" long. In a bowl, coat meat with
marinade. Chill airtight 15 min. to 24 hours.
On a large baking sheet, lay parallel about 2 inches apart 2 metal
skewers, each about 18 inches long. Lift meat from marinade and
thread each strip onto a pair of skewers. Pat with marinade from bowl.
Place skewered meat on an oiled barbecue grill over med-high heat
(close lid on gas grill). Cook, turning often, until meat is well
browned and crusty, about 20 minutes.
Spanish rice: Meanwhile, in a 1 1/2-2 qt. pan over high heat, bring
3/4 c water, rice, tomato sauce and remaining 1/4 t salt to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until liquid is absorbed; 15-20
minutes.
Beans: About 5 minutes before meat is done, place beans and their
liquid in a 1 qt pan and cook over med-high heat until bubbling,
about 5 minutes.
Tortillas: Lift cooked meat to a platter and cover with foil. Heat 1
or 2 tortillas at a time on grill until lightly browned but still
soft, turning once, 30-40 secs. Stack on platter beneath foil to keep
warm.
Assembly: On a board, remove meat from skewers, cut into 1/4" wide
strips. Lay tortillas flat. Toward one edge of each, fill equally
with guacamole, sour cream, pork, beans (including most of the
liquid), rice, cheese, 1 c. salsa, and cilantro. Fold over sides and
roll up tightly to enclose. Add more salsa to taste.
