Arnoldo's Flamin' Fuego Burrito
I was inspired to cook Flamin' Furritos by imagining a picture of old-fashioned brown cowboys cooking spicy food in the shadow of a rigid sky-high mountain. In the night of the desert, surrounded by feisty saguaro trees, they cook in the roaring fire. So, in devotion to the rugged cowboys with hefty mustaches, I wanted to make a fiery burrito. To start, I take everything I need to my culinary job, with access to a grill and tools.Vamos, mis Vaqueros y Vaqueras!
Ingredients
- 1 12" flour tortilla
- 8 oz Flamin' Hot Cheetos

- 2 tbsp minced onion
- 5-6 cups water
- 2 oz chata chilorio (shredded seasoned pork meat)
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tbsp margarine or butter
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, marinate the pork in lemon juice and sriracha sauce.
- Mix the white rice in a bowl with the refried beans, chicharrones, Flamin' Hot Cheetos, powdered garlic, salt, minced onion, and crushed red pepper.

- Lay out your tortilla and spread it with mayo sauce.
- With a spoon, add four healthy spoonfuls of the cheetos mixture to your tortilla. Top with chileo meat. Add a squirt of squeezed cheese. Rub the tortilla with margarine, meticulously fold them around the filling, and gently put them on a hot grill until the burritos are charred and crispy.
