My husband is a huge BBQ'er (not a griller that is different). We always have some type of meat in the frig or freezer i.e. brisket, pulled pork. Although I think it is delicious I wanted to try some new things with the leftovers.
I think he found this recipe on the BBQ Forum from Juggy Beerman
5 Cups Pulled Pork
2 Cups Cooked Brown Rice
1 Can Black Beans, Drained
1 Cup Diced Onion
1 Cup Medium Chunky Salsa
1 Cup Rotel Original Tomatoes and Green Chiles
2/3 Cup Diced Red Pepper
1/2 Cup Diced Green Pepper ( I used yellow pepper because that is all I had)
Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Heat one tortilla in microwave for 22 seconds to make the tortilla shell pliable. Place about 3/4 cup of the mixture on tortilla and top with cheese ( I used Cheddar). Author of the recipe also says you can had your favorite hot sauce at this point. Wrap the tortilla so the ingredients are sealed on both ends. You will get about 15 burritos out of this recipe.
Varied ways to cook:
1. Pan fry in about 3/4" oil at 375 starting with seam side down. Turn once side is brown and turn until all sides are brown.
2. Cooking in an oven coat the burrito with oleo and then wrap it in foil. The oleo will give the tortilla a crunchy texture. The cooking temp for the oven is 400 on the lower rack for about 20 minutes.
I used the second method. I really didn't like the taste of the Oleo on the tortilla and it did not make it crispier in my case.
The filling by the way was delicious!!!
Tonight I am going to use the same idea and make enchiladas. I let you know how it turns out.

I made BBQ Port Enchiladas a al ME Thursday night.
I simple filled corn tortilla's with the burrito mixture made with this recipe minus the cheese inside the tortilla. Then I topped with Salsa because I didn't have enchilada sauce and the topped with cheese.
Cooked 20 minutes on 325 covered with aluminum foil and then 5 minutes with the aluminum foil off. We actually liked it better than the burritos.
