Help me build my Cinco de Mayo breakfast burrito (poll, time out at 7:00AM 5/5/24)

[Mosca]

Well that’s the most options I could put down, so I had to stop listing things. But I also have corn I could put in it, not that I really want to.

Thing is, if I throw everything in there, it isn’t going to be any good. There will be too many things. On the other hand: lots of things. Things are stupid, and stupid is often fun!

If I were to just flat out do it without asking, it would be eggs, bacon, either brisket OR chorizo, hash browns, serranos, onion, cheese, and green salsa. Maybe some pinto beans. I do have the HUGE tortillas for this. I would consider grilling it when done.

Rice. I always have leftover rice and it bulks up a burrito nicely.

[Draznnl]

I’m with captainlee I find that rice as a filler reduces the flavor of everything else in the burrito.

[STEbbq]

Draznnl no, you don’t use rice as a filler. I know the restaurants do but I disagree and I am sure they do it because it is cheaper. I think we use rice as a topping like onion or cheese where a little goes a long way.

[mnavarre]

People who put rice in any burrito that's not mariscos are monsters.

[STEbbq]

Are we griddling this monster in the burrito wrap for crispiness?

[Mosca]

Yeah, thinkin’ bout it. Depends on the rain, it will be either griddled outside or cast iron inside.

[Mosca]

This is shaping up to be one hell of a good burrito. I think I’ll use everything that is over 50%, but if something is really close and I really want it, I’ll add it.

Also, if anyone hints of something I didn’t, feel free to blurt it out.

[barelfly]

You’re gonna need a nap after this mega burrito! Can’t wait to see!

I would use most of those ingredients but make several small and different tacos.

[Mosca]

Now that’s a thought. There is absolutely nothing keeping that from happening other than I want to use up one of my 12” flour tortillas. But I have 6” corn tortillas, and 6” flour tortillas as well. I’m going to have enough stuff to make burritos & tacos for a week, so that is what will probably happen.

Make sure you are close to the couch when you eat this thing

[LA Pork Butt]

I would add cilantro.

[Mosca]

Got it, and limes, too. The polls top out at 15 choices.

[mnavarre]

I went with chorizo, hash browns (because that's the only potato option), egg, cheese, and sour cream.

[Mosca]

I could also do home fries.

[STEbbq]

Ha. It is basically your proposed burrito minus the peppers (the Pit ain’t spicy!). I’ll plead for sour cream because it adds so much. Hope it wins!

[barelfly]

I didn’t go with Serrano because I chose chorizo andI’m sure it would work, but the flavor profile I went with in my mind doesn’t pair. Normally I go with green chile but the chorizo option really sounded good to me! Makes me want to go buy some chorizo for breakfast tomorrow!

[barelfly]

I like the chorizo and bacon combo for your meat protein. Hash browns and onions, cheese, pintos and red chile, as I thought that would pair nicely with the chorizo flavor.

[JCBBQ]

Guys! You need beans! It just ain’t Cinco without some Stinko!

[Mosca]

It may surprise some of you to know that yr. hmbl. svt. Mosca isn’t as “together” as he seems. However, what I thought was tomatillo/green hatch salsa that I took from the freezer last night was actually green hatch chiles. And since I don’t have any tomatillos laying around, it’s tomato/red hatch salsa.

[barelfly]

I would have voted green chiles then!

[Mosca]

I thought about that. I already had the serrano out and chopped.

[DaveD]

Looking forward to seeing this puppy!! Be sure to make enough for all of us...

[hoovarmin]

Has this U-boat been launched yet? I'm eagerly anticipating a photo.

[Mosca]

Coming up. Teeth still moving.
