Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 pound ground beef
• 0.5 pound ground pork
• 0.5 pound chorizo sausage
• 1 large, chopped onion
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
• 8 large flour tortillas
• 2 cups, shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 medium, diced tomatoes
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup salsa
• 2 cups, shredded romaine lettuce
• 2 sliced jalapeños

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground beef, ground pork, and chorizo to the skillet. Cook until the meat is browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. This should take about 7-10 minutes.

Step 4

Drain any excess fat from the skillet.

Step 5

Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to ensure the spices are evenly distributed and fragrant.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the meat mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to meld the flavors.

Step 7

Meanwhile, warm the refried beans in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.

Step 8

Preheat a non-stick pan or griddle to warm the flour tortillas. Heat each tortilla for about 1 minute on each side until they're warm and pliable.

Step 9

To assemble the burrito, spread a scoop of refried beans onto each warm tortilla.

Step 10

Top the beans with a generous portion of the meat mixture and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 11

Add diced tomatoes, a dollop of sour cream, some salsa, shredded romaine lettuce, and sliced jalapeños as desired.

Step 12

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from bottom to top.

Step 13

Serve immediately, or lightly grill the burritos on the non-stick griddle for a crispy exterior before serving.
