PORK AND BLACK BEAN BURRITOS



Pork and Black Bean Burritos image

This is a great rainy day recipe that will make your house smell wonderful all day! I think that this makes a fairly mild burrito filling but the heat level depends on how hot your peppers are as well as your tolerance for heat! 12 hours is the maximum cooking time - it will depend on your roast - I always start with a frozen roast but if you are using thawed it will take less time!

Categories     Pork

Time 12h

Yield 8 large burritos, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 lbs boneless pork roast
1 lb dried black beans
2 dried or fresh serrano peppers
1 cup chicken broth
1 pint diced tomato (or a 14.5 ounce can)
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 teaspoons ground cumin
4 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
8 large tortillas
hot sauce, as desired

Steps:

  • Place the pork roast, either frozen or thawed into a crock pot, add a little water or stock to the bottom of the pot and cook on low for 8-12 hours or until very tender and falling apart.
  • About 4 hours before your pork roast is done quick soak the beans in a large stock pot according to the package directions (sort, rinse, cover with 12 cups water, boil rapidly for 2 minutes and let sit, covered for 1 hour).
  • While the beans are soaking prepare your serrano peppers. If using dried peppers, remove the stems (and seeds if desired - I leave mine in), cover with boiling water and let steep, covered for 30 minutes. Process the peppers and the rehydration liquid in a food processor or blender until finely chopped. If using fresh peppers simply dice them up, again removing the seeds if desired.
  • Drain and rinse the beans, return them to the pot and add the chicken stock, peppers, and enough water to just cover the beans. Simmer for about 3 hours or until tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed. Check on the beans periodically to make sure they have enough liquid - you may need to add liquid a couple of times before the beans are tender. (You can add any liquid you want - I add some liquid from the pork roast which is delicious but you could add either water or more stock as well!).
  • When beans are finished cooking, add the tomatoes, red wine vinegar, and all the seasonings and stir well to combine. Continue to simmer on the stove over low heat while you shred the pork.
  • Shred the pork roast, removing the fat and place the meat in a large bowl. Add the shredded cheeses on top of the pork and pour the finished beans over the cheese. Stir everything together - the hot pork and beans should melt the cheese!
  • Place the filling inside the tortialls (you can warm them first if desired - I don't but I do place the wrapped burrito into the microwave with cheese sprinkled on top and microwave it for a minute to melt the cheese and heat everything well!) and serve with hot sauce if desired!

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Chop your veggies, cook your rice, and measure out your spices before you start assembling the burritos. This will make the process much smoother and faster.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your burritos will taste. Look for ripe avocados, crisp lettuce, and flavorful tomatoes.
  • Don't overstuff your burritos: Less is more when it comes to burritos. Overstuffed burritos are difficult to roll and eat, and they're more likely to fall apart.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The more toppings you offer, the more customizable your burritos will be. Some popular toppings include guacamole, salsa, sour cream, cheese, and pico de gallo.
  • Serve your burritos immediately: Burritos are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven or off the grill. If you're making them ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator or freezer and reheat them before serving.

Conclusion:

Black bean and pork burritos are a versatile, delicious, and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of planning, you can create a burrito that is sure to please everyone at your table.
