Ground Burrito Meat is made with ground beef for ground beef burrito meat. Ground pork for ground pork burrito meat, or a 50/50 mix of both ground beef and pork. First, taco meat is made up and cooked. Then an entire can of refried beans is added in to mix. This mixture of meat & beans is great for burritos, burrito bowls, or as a dip for nachos topped with sauces and cheese.
Ground Burrito Meat Ingredients
Ground Beef, Old El Paso Taco Seasoning, Water (or tomato juice), Lemon Juice or Lime Juice, Beef Bouillon, and Refried Beans.
Taco Meat
This recipe is based on the taco meat with a can of refried beans added in at the very end to mix through. To create the taco meat, add all the ingredients except for the refried beans to a cold pan and mix. Then place over medium-high to max heat to brown. Finally, add a whole can of refried beans to create the burrito meat and bean paste.
Refried Beans
The refried beans added to the taco meat turn this into a burrito filling. I most often use the La Costena refried beans, which are 546 ml. Although at times I have also used the Old El Paso Refried Beans. Which is a smaller can of refried beans at 398 ml. Either one will work with emptying a whole can of refried beans. You just get a bit more with La Constena.
