1 pack of taco or burrito seasoning (My mom made her own)
1 small can green chile verde
1 can Rosarita Frijoles Refritos

I brown 1.5 lbs of pre smoked GB and added my moms mexican seasoning.

Rosarita are the best canned Frijoles Refritos.

Simmer down some of the liquid or your burro will be oozing ;D

Add whatever you like to yours.
Here is my moms basic taco/burrito mix. Double for larger amounts.
2 T chili powder
1/4 t cumin or more to taste (I smoke mine)
1 to 1.5 t salt
1/2 t black pepper
1/4 t onion powder
1/4 t garlic powder
1 pinch of mexican oregano (A PINCH)
1/2 t spanish paprika
Mix this together and add to browned GB. Store the leftover.
I love mexican food.
Love eating at Taqueria's where all you do is point at what you want
cause they wouldn't understand you if you said anything.
Those look plum good and thanks for sharing a family recipe.
Looks really good Nepas. I wonder if they would freeze very good. Could be made ahead and taken to work?
They do look good. I have been trying to decide on something simple to use my pepperjack in. This might be it!
10.5 - I think they would be excellent to freeze.
Off to the store for tortillas.......

Yes they do, have done that many times.
That looks good!
In the last few years I've become a foodie and have begun the slow, yet enjoyable process of cooking so seeing recipes and photos give me ideas.
Thank you.
I feel a Mexican evening coming on with the wife. ;D
