Okay, if you don't find a huge difference between store-bought tortillas and homemade, you've used the wrong recipe. Lard! Less saturated fat than butter and makes a world of a difference. That all said, I'm headed out to the kitchen to make your version of sheet pan fajitas and this recipe looks so good it makes me cry. Love your videos and subscribed LONG ago!

[@CharlieCoriell]

Do you have the macros for this recipe ? I’d appreciate it.

[@anti-ethniccleansing465]

Brian, did you know you can add crispness to the cubed russet potatoes by parboiling them for like 10 mins before roasting them? The texture is out of this world!

[@Bucketus.Lord.of.Buckets]

I will subvert expectations and have these burritos for dinner.

[@workingclasscook870]

Heck yeah, I just made breakfast burritos with tater tots last week because I was too lazy to fry up some home fries, and it was so good. Great minds think alike. Cheers!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

It's the right move.

[@nickkremer72]

I always stuff a little cheese into the seem before pan frying the finished burrito, you get some nice crispy cheese that way!

[@justinlane3483]

The shit eating grin when you start dancing just shows how proud you are of this creation Bri! Keep up the good work

[@TheeBurgerDude]

Agreed about Tots. They are the best spud for a breakfast burrito by far. They also do well in the air fryer!

[@420BraiseIt]

Hey Bri! From someone who grew up with Mexican refried beans, there is often some fat, usually lard, melted into the refried beans. A few tbsp of the bacon fat would do really well in there. I specifically keep my bacon fat to use for refried beans in our house :)

[@brentus6043]

Usually I skip the beans altogether, but that sounds amazing

[@SpaceCadet4Jesus]

Yeah, Rosarita refrieds. Delicious with home made tortilla, butter, green chile, and a bit of cheese.

[@dreamscape405]

I was waiting for him to add some of the bacon fat to the beans, and it surprised when he didn't.

[@ixD9]

I would have just used a little bacon fat to refry the whole beans myself. Season and mash to whatever texture you like. Another option would be to skip the bacon, fry up some chorizo, and then dump the whole beans in there to fry in that tasty chorizo grease. Chorizo beans are amazing!

[@mdbbox5660]

It's a grilled stuft breakfast burrito! Lots of good little tips in here. Baking tots longer is a great idea, especially when they're going into a burrito. Combining pinto and refried beans is also awesome. Don't built a burrito without refried beans. I'll go out on a limb and say that american cheese in a burrito is a good shortcut even if it's super lowbrow. It melts really well and creates its own sauce which is nice if you don't want to go to the trouble of making the crema. Plus it lasts forever in your fridge. I would also use butter and not oil for browning the burrito at the end for more flavor.

[@DaveO2488]

American cheese is a good choice, fry the tots in the bacon grease and brown that thing with a coat of mayo.

[@karenfox1671]

What a complete cooking lesson this is! You offer so many techniques and so much instruction, with multi purposes. Your eggs look as light as foam and, THE SAUCES!!!!!!! Your sauces never go without comment here. I just finished making your cinnamon buns again. What a pleasure that dough is to hone my skills. Can't wait for tomorrow, buddy!

[@T-marie-N]

I actually said, "Yes!" when you showed how to tell when a tomatillo is ripe. Thank you! And that burrito looks so good.

[@UnitedCuisines]

Man, that final frying step for sure tipped that Burrito over 1000kcal!

[@artleitch]

I really like how you have options as you go along (tots vs russet) in your videos. Makes it easy to adapt your recipe to my current context (low on time vs looking for a chef-ier experience etc)

[@brettmoore6781]

Great job on making a dope breakfast burrito, Bri!

[@rustincrawford3587]

Made these tonight. Excellent. I’ve often made breakfast burritos with tots and refried beans. Adding the pintos added a great texture. Pan rendering the bacon instead of baking in the oven also made it more consistently crispy.

[@jonathanwilliams1974]

That refried + whole bean combo is siiick. Also dope cross section!!

[@blipblap614]

If you have dried pintos, they only need 80 minutes in an Instant Pot.

[@erikellis1418]

This looks delicious! But, I can never talk about breakfast burritos without mentioning that someday the world will find out about the breakfast burritos they make in New Mexico. If breakfast burritos are good, the New Mexican breakfast burritos are life changing!!!

[@ren0387]

i've seen a couple of your videos here and there but this one really sold me as a new fan! i loved how you made a point of showcasing the visual/sensory cues, like how ripe the tomatillo should be, when the salsa is ready to blend, or even including shots of you doing the "long squeeze of acid" or "big pinch of salt" (rather than just mentioning it) so we have a solid idea of what you meant by that. excited to watch more of your stuff!

[@Psysium]

Your enthusiasm at the end was absolutely palpable. Good thing I have most of these ingredients at the ready, cuz this left me with a hankering!

[@SaikeeKonosukeLuc]

I like the way you cook. Simple yet elegant. Have been around for a year on your channel now. Keep cooking Brian. You got talent!

[@DennisFutball2396]

Very nice. I’ve been making a similar dish with tots & sliced avocado for years. But I leave the tortilla open and enjoy it as a breakfast soft taco. Never get tired of it.

Damn it, Brie! Why do you have to make it look so scrumptious? Now I'm hungry before going to bed, and will dream of this buritto.

[@joebaker5305]

Just had these and wow. I made more than 4 because I was lighter on the ingredients per burrito and have breakfast for Monday and Tuesday. Thanks for another hit.

[@73ocampo]

Hello from Oregon, finally a cook who added beans to the breakfast burrito! So much added flavor. Nice job!

[@timnewton1073]

Interesting idea to add in the beans, I personally do hashbrowns and sausage, work them together and then add the eggs into that mixture to have it all kind of meld together so each bite is equal.

[@anti-ethniccleansing465]

Using canned refried beans is inexcusable. Might as well use catfood. He should have taken the time to cook up his own beans, with flavor actually added to them, and mash them. He’s already taking the time to make his own sauces - what’s one extra step? Especially such an important one too. It isn’t like I’m dogging him for using a store$bought tortilla.

[@JMVestal4]

Nicely done. The eggs were beautiful

[@alicedapanda2180]

Hey Bri, made the tomatillo salsa and the spicy crema for my family tonight, since we were having tacos. They ***loved*** it. Thank you so much for your help.

[@johncra8982]

I just realized that I think I've been asking Bri for burrito videos for ages, despite not having eaten a burrito in forever 😂

[@Broken_Yugo]

For reheating tortillas on a gas stove, just wipe the grate off with a damp towel and heat them directly over the largest burner. Blast until one side just scorches, flip, pull when it bubbles. Takes some practice, but it works great and is the fastest way I know that isn't steaming them in the microwave.

that looks so good!

Thanks Brian. Really enjoy your videos and recipes. The best!

I really appreciate that you put ALL your effort into every single video and recipe.

[@Fusion5669]

As of now I have watched every single video on this channel. You are my absolute favorite food based KZbinr. Easy to follow recipes. Good information as to why something is done a certain way instead of "because I said so". One of the best, full stop! If possible ( I understand the algorithm and demand ) I would like to see more recipes that involve absolutely nothing related to tomato. I am currently 54 and have loved all foods my whole life until about 3 years ago. I developed an allergy to anything tomato ( anything ). I'm not talking an irritating allergy but an epipen emergency room anaphylactic reaction. Ketchup will blister my skin like a bad sunburn. So with that being said while I love this channel there are so many recipes that I yearn for but can no longer have. Thank you for what you do and I will continue to watch every recipe ( even if I can't have it ). 🤪

[@ashantiaziza1425]

Oh yeah!

[@missinglink_eth]

I’m dancing just watching!

[@arnoldkotlyarevsky383]

Brian, I think this might be my first departure from your recommendations. While this is obviously delicious and absolutely next level...I think it sort of fails to be a breakfast burrito you could actually have at home. If I paid $18 for one at a restaurant, I would not feel bad. But, if I wanted something I could make before work, or pull out of the freezer and thoughtfully reheat later, this would not work. This is exclusively a "saturday morning with nothing to do before noon" kind of breakfast burrito.

[@nholeonard5440]

It is called DELUXE breakfast burritos for a reason :-)

[@ronruethain5521]

You are the man. I’ve made quite a few recipes and as promised they taste excellent. Especially the beef and broccoli and other Asian items. Of course living in St Louis and having lived in Chicago it seems that my, my wife’s and kids tastes are similar. Keep up the great work Bri.
