Burritos are the traditional food of Ciudad Juarez, a city in Northern Mexico, where you can buy them at restaurants and thousands of corner stands. In this border town there are eateries that have established their reputation after decades serving burritos. They are eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Usual ingredients include barbacoa, mole, winies (hot-dogs cooked in a tomato and chile sauce), refried beans and cheese, deshebrada (shreded slow-cooked flank steak) and chile relleno. The deshebrada burrito also has a variation in chile colorado (mild to moderately hot) and salsa verde (very hot).

The most commonly served style of the burrito in the United States is thought to be indigenous and is not as common in Mexico. One very common enhancement is the Wet Burrito, which is a burrito smothered in a red chile sauce similar to an enchilada sauce, with shredded cheese added on top so that the cheese melts.

Some cities have their own variations with one of the most well-known being the San Francisco burrito. San Diego has popularized the California burrito, typically a combination of carne asada, french fries, and salsa fresca, and which is sometimes referred to as a “Cali burrito” or “San Diego style”. Some American restaurants also feature burritos with non-Mexican ingredients, such as pastrami.

In Hawai‘i burritos are rather uncommon, unfortunately. This tribe exists as a space where Hawai‘i residents can arrange burrito gatherings, indulge in burrito worship and study, discuss burrito culture, and share news and reviews of burritos around the land.
