Flap Meat Burritos
These flap meat burritos are super easy to make and tastes delicious. We are always concocting different ways to make burritos and these turned out great! This is an awesome tasting burrito that starts out in the crock pot.
Turn a larger size crock pot to high. First add chopped onions, then add the meat. Sprinkle with garlic salt, salt and pepper and spoon diced green chilies over the meat. Next, pour in the enchilada sauce and top with olives. Cover and cook for approximately 5 hours or until the meat falls apart.
After cutting up the lettuce, tomatoes, green onions and cilantro, and grating the cheese, start heating up the tortillas. Raw tortillas from Costco® are what I use but any type of flour tortilla will work. Once you start assembling the burritos, start layering the meat, grated cheese and lettuce. Roll up into a burrito and set aside until all the burritos are made. When you are ready to serve them, you might need to heat them up in the microwave a bit to melt the cheese. For each burrito, spoon some remaining sauce over the top, add some additional cheese, a spoonful of sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, green onions and cilantro to the top of each burrito.
So Yummy
I don’t know too many people that don’t like cilantro. It’s such a great addition that makes food tastes so good. My man is one that does not care for cilantro and I think he’s crazy but I get it. Cilantro is not for everyone.
Another great ingredient to add is avocados. We just didn’t have any at the time I was taking pictures otherwise avocados would definitely be included. That’s another favorite.
Now it’s time to enjoy these delicious flap meat burritos. Pile on the goodies and enjoy! Also, these are great served with refried beans and Spanish rice.
Look at this mess, but let me tell you, this mess is delish! So yummy and definitely filling. The enchilada sauce flavors the meat so well.
We hope you enjoy these flap meat burritos as much as we do.

What is flap meat? I don’t think I’ve heard that term before.
Hi Lisa, Flap meat is like skirt or flank steak. Here is the definition I looked up to describe it better: “Flap steak, or flap meat is a beef steak cut. It comes from a bottom sirloin butt cut of beef, and is generally a very thin steak. The flap steak is sometimes confused with hanger steak as both are usually cut thin.” Thank you for your comment. :)
Thank you. I’m glad I checked back because your reply didn’t automatically come to me like on most blogs. I assume I need to click the “notify me of new comments via email” link. In the past I’ve found this refers to other people’s comments not the blogger’s but now I know! Thanks so much for the explanation!
