Wet Burritos
By: Terri F.
Jul 9, 2002
Having grown up with these, I didn't realize that most folks have never heard of a wet burrito. It is a meat and bean (or all meat or all bean) burrito with a spicy gravy and cheese on top. They are available here in many restaurants, and no self respecting bar would be without one on the menu, lol! Once you try them, you'll never go back to "dry" burritos again! Don't let the long list of directions scare you, these are easy!

- 3/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, in sauce divided

When all burritos are assembled and in the baking dish, pour sauce mixture over all and sprinkle with remaining cheese.14

I 'converted' this to chicken burritos by finely chopping pounded chicken breast instead of beef. I also used chicken gravy instead of beef. In addition, my wife doesn't like the texture of onion so I used 1/4 cup of grated onion in place of 1/2 cup chopped. This had an excellent flavor. Don't be discouraged by the amount of ingredients.

We loved this! The sauce was great. The only thing I did differently was to use these new "freeze dried" refried beans we found. They taste a lot better than canned and are much more creamy. All you do is add water. OK sorry not an add for a product, but a review 
These were wonderful I think next time I might try throwing in steak strips instead of ground beef. UPDATE 10/1/07: I made it again last night we NEVER EVER do this with ANYTHING but I licked the plate clean blush and he thought about it.. DB suggested I add "plate lickin' good!" to my review UPDATE 5/2/09 - I forgot to mention we like the sauce better with a 20oz can of enchilada sauce and a 12oz jar of beef gravy.

These were very good and easy to prepare. The only change I made was I added a couple of pinches of salt to the meat after it had simmered with the tomatoes...it tasted a tad bland to me without some salt. I also used the "hot" enchilada sauce to make sure there was some kick to it. Otherwise I followed the recipe as close as possible. I'm sure these will be made many times in my house. Thanks for posting Terry.

These were AWESOME! My whole family loved them! My husband even raved about them, and he normally doesn't say too much when I try a new dish out on him. I served them with spanish rice and charro beans. I followed your directions exactly and topped them with sour cream and fresh chopped jalapenos! I will definitely be making these often! Thanks for posting a great recipe!
