Ingredients

  • 2 pounds stew meat or other beef, cubed
  • 1 (19-ounce) can mild red enchilada sauce
  • 2-3 cubes beef bouillon
  • 1 (16-ounce) can refried beans
  • 5-7 burrito sized tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Put the stew meat into the crockpot, and put the beef bouillon cubes on top, pour the enchilada sauce over the meat and cubes.  
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4.  Cook until the meat is very tender.
  • Assemble the burritos by spooning refried beans and spreading them on the tortilla. Using a slotted spoon, put about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture on top.  Roll up like a burrito and place the seam down in a 9x13-inch pan.
  • Pour the remaining sauce from the crockpot on the burritos and sprinkle heavily with cheese.
  • Broil in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5 minutes.  Enjoy!
