Pork Burritos Recipe

Updated on April 17th, 2019

These pork burritos are loaded with amazing flavor. Whenever I am looking to prepare easy meat for burritos, I always look for slow cooker recipes. This recipe uses the slow cooker and there is not much work involved. A few ingredients are mixed in the blender and then placed into the slow cooker with the pork roast and cooked on low for 8-10 hours. I found the flavor of the meat mixture to be very good and it was a little spicy, but I did not find the heat to be too extreme. If you do not want to make burritos this recipe could be used to make meat for tacos, enchiladas, quesadillas, etc. I made these into wet burritos with a little of the juice from the slow cooker and melted cheese on top. Enjoy.

  2. I tried this recipe yesterday, and it was fantastic! Meat was very flavorful, but not over-the-top spicy. I came home late, and almost missed out! My family had about polished it off! Will be making again soon. Thanks for sharing!
