Preparation

Prepare the Burnt Ends
If not using pre-cooked burnt ends, season your brisket with salt and pepper. Smoke or slow-cook until tender and charred, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
- 2
Crispy Potatoes
Dice potatoes into small cubes and boil until slightly tender. Drain and then fry in hot oil until golden and crispy. Season with salt.
- 3
Scrambled Eggs
Whisk the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until just set, stirring occasionally.

Prepare the Green Chile Ranchera
In a bowl, mix together the green chile and ranchera sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Assembling the Burrito

Assemble the Burrito
Lay out a flour tortilla, and in the center, layer ½ cup of burnt ends, ½ cup of crispy potatoes, 1 scrambled egg, ¼ cup of cheddar cheese, and a few slices of avocado. Drizzle with the green chile ranchera sauce and add pico de gallo.

Wrap the Burrito
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll from the bottom up to completely enclose the filling. Ensure it's tightly wrapped.

Final Cooking (Optional)
For a crispy finish, place the wrapped burrito seam-side down in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
