Cooking Instructions
- 1
Simmer pork roast in a crock pot for 6 to 8 hours in beef or chicken broth.
- 2
Pull pork meat from broth and allow to cool slightly. Strain broth of any floating fats.
- 3
Fine shread pork meat with forks and disgard any fat or anything unsightly.
- 4
Reserve 1 cup broth for the shreadded chicken for burritos. Reserve the rest of the stock and 1 pound shreadded pork to make a healthy pork stew. Or, a Green Chili Stew If interested, see steps 13 thru 15.
- 5
Chop all vegetables for your refried beans. You'll leave these raw as they'll act as a crispy Pico de Gallo within your burritos.
- 6
Use a refried bean product like Rosarita, GOYA or Old Elpaso. They're all great brands.
- 7
Heat beans and mix with your crispy vegetables.
- 8
Fry pulled pork for burritos covered in 1 cup broth, 1 packet Old Elpaso Taco Seasoning, 1 - 4 oz can of green chilies and 1/2 cup of your favorite green salsa. Steam well. Stir occasionally.
- 9
Smear heated refried bean mixture on warm tortilla and add hot seasoned fried shreadded pork meat. All ingredients should be fully heated. Or, at room temp [i.e., cheeses, tortillas] before construction and placing in Panini Press or grilling.
- 10
Add whatever fillers you'd like before wrapping up tortillas tightly.
- 11
Place burritos in hot press until scored and cheese has melted.
- 12
Serve burritos hot with green salsa, sour cream, Mexican 3 cheese, lettuce and tomatoes & Avacado slices. Also, a side of Green Chili Stew. Enjoy!
- 13
You're already half way there if interested in making the pork stew. Just add whatever vegetables you have on hand, [i.e., chopped onions, potatoes, carrots, celery, bell peppers, tomatoes, cilantro, etc., a McCormick Beef Stew packet [a great cheater] and additional herbs & spices]
- 14
Simmer stew for a few more hours in your same crock pot until vegetables have softened. You can also add a pint of Hatch Green Chili to your stew for an extra kick. It's always a delicious option!
- 15
Serve your stew with fresh bread or warm flour tortillas. Enjoy!

Mike's Pork Chili Verde Burritos Mike's Pork Chili Verde Burritos
FYI: Most Hispanics in Mexico don't wrap their foods up in a tortilla, "burrito style," like the US does unless they're on the run. What they will do at sit down meals is take warm flour tortillas - rip off a large piece and place their ingredients in a two bite sized portion and feed upon their dish that way. [see final photo] But, either way you choose to serve them is entirely up to you!This recipe may take some time but it's definitely worth your efforts! My seven year old students were up at 4:30 a.m. yesterday morning marinating pork and their efforts did not disappoint! Excellent work kiddos! In fact, they fed the homeless with them!Know that this dish is much better the following day and it freezes well for up to two months. This dish also makes for excellent oversized Taquitos and crispy assed Chimichangas!

I call this a reverse burrito because it is just black beans and Mexican rice inside. And then smothered with all the goodies. I made this in an electric pressure cooker to save time. I also used canned enchilada sauce to save time as well.
