Burrito Filling

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, mix together the red chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the diced pork shoulder to the mixture and coat well.

2

Cook the Pork

In a large pot over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the marinated pork and cook until browned on all sides. Add water to the pot, cover, and simmer for about 1.5 hours or until the pork is tender.

3

Shred the Pork

Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the pot to soak up the juices for an additional 15 minutes.

4

Assemble the Burritos

Lay out a flour tortilla and spread a layer of refried beans in the center. Add a generous amount of the carne adovada, followed by shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro. Fold in the sides and roll up the tortilla tightly to form a burrito.

5

Serve

Cut the burrito in half and serve warm. Enjoy!
