L.A. Street Style Carne Asada Burrito--At Home

[ssv3]

Ain't chit to do as most everything is closed here due to C19. 76*, clear blue skies today and I'm glad my C8 got here recently to keep me "unbored."

After a nice Sunday afternoon drive, I worked up an appetite for some fast food. In-N-Out line was insane so I figured I'd make one of my all time favorite L.A. street foods instead in just about the same time

Prime flap meat

Made a quick salsa roja

Rice, beans, meat, cheese

Onions, cilantro and the salsa

Griddled it on the CI pan

Not street if it's not wrapped in the yellow food service paper :becky:

Extra salsa

As good

As it gets

Even looks like taco truck/stand waste :laugh:

Course I had red and greed tortillas from the Mex Lasagna cook. So....

I don't mind cold or nuked burritos for lunch

Don't have too many yet. This was the third time I'm driving it. Got her Thanksgiving week. :grin: All I can say GM did a helluva job on this one. Not like any other corvette you've been in.

Marinade for flap meat?

***I go heavy on garlic so maybe cut down on some of the garlic if not a garlic fan.

Marinade for flap meat?

Since I wanted something fast I used Chef Merito. Can't go wrong.

You got it anytime you can make it out here.

Mind if I eat the burrito while taking the C8 for a spin?

You can trust me. One weekend back in high school my parents went to the Upper Peninsula and left me at home. Learned to drive a stick in their Mustang II while smoking, drinking, and eating fast food.

Beautiful burritos and car. Company I work for designs and builds tools (aka: bent screwdrivers) for most North American GM final assembly plants, including Bowling Green.

Enjoy that ride!

Thank you sir! I figured from some of the WP posts you were somehow tied to the automotive industry. GM at that and especially the BG plant.

I had a C6 and enjoyed the heck out of it but the C8 is a whole another animal or should I say a beast. I can't believe I have one every time I open the garage door as hot as these cars are. Put a deposit down first day to secure an allocation. 17 months of waiting but it paid off.

I’d say it’s time to leave some rubber residue all over town !!!!!

Great looking burrito, you always nail the Mexican food. Also a belated congrats on the car. Like Erik I have done stuff for the car but, wasn't able to enjoy it as much as you :-D Have fun brother!

 

[creek bottom]

Burritos look killer and that is one sweet ride, Sako! Have fun and enjoy!

 

[kevinstaggs]

Sako, I've only had LA street tacos a couple of times and they were really good.. but yours? They look crazy good.

 

[ModelMaker]

I wanna see you eat one of those while driving that car. How many cup holders does that car have?

Great looking meal and awesome looking C8. Love the color.

 

[Big George's BBQ]

That is what you call good eats

 

[jermoQ]

That is a pretty car! I don't really get excited about cars, except my uncle sort of got me interested in Vettes. Probably be fun!

Now about the food. YIKES! That looks awesome! I have not done salsa roja but I love the spicy stuff I have eaten on carne asada tacos at places. Is yours spicy?
