It looks like the ends are folded so I vote burritos.

All the enchiladas I've eaten were open ended.

A local market makes something that looks very similar, but they call them beef chimichangas. Which is completely wrong, because chimichangas are deep fried.

And whatever's on the inside, isn't beef. I don't know what it is. It has the consistency of refried beans, but it isn't that either.

The only thing sways.... the ONLY thing you need to understand is that alllll Mexican food is the same. Tortilla, meat, cheese and some kind of vegetable. You want a... blinks to focus eyes a TACO?

It’s called a burrito mojado at most Mexican restaurants.

Used to frequent a joint called Taco Bravo. Was like Taco Bell only the ingredients were all the real thing. Everything was like old Taco Bell menu on steroids. If cheese went on top you could not see what is under. Why am I even writing this? Anyway, maybe I want more cheese.

Flour disqualifies the enchiladas segment of my brain. I'm a white boy, but I'm from San Antonio, enchiladas are corn, tacos are either, burritos are flour.

Edit: I absolutely brain farted and meant flour, not corn for burritos. Jesus fucking Christ I feel like Ford eating the tamal with the husk and all.

In the SW part of the states you can get any burrito, and sometimes lots of other things, smothered with red or green chile and cheese. It’s the best and we do this at home too when everyone wants all the chile possible.

If you cook room temp hamburger on medium heat and constantly stir it, you get maximum separation of the hamburger with a...creamy? Consistency after adding water and taco seasoning

A lot of the food on here tends to fall in a couple categories of either looking way too fancy or weirdly sexual. Let me tell you right now these hit that golden category of just delicious for the eyes. Fucking incredible.

I'll wade into that a bit. Part of the difference is down to the fillings. If you're making a Mission-style burrito with beans and rice, that wouldn't go in an enchilada.

Wrapping also plays a role. Enchiladas are typically made with corn tortillas while burritos are almost without exception flour. I make enchiladas with flour myself, but corn is still the more traditional version.

You invented enchiladas! Try green sauce next time. Even better, try green chile with pork next time, and put a little sour cream on top.

That's common at many taquerias. It's usually referred to as "mojado" or "wet". They make a burrito as normal, then cover it with enchilada sauce, cheese, and stick it under the broiler for a sec to melt it. It's like a buck or two upgrade for any burrito.

Im 3 months pregnant, have a ton of food aversions, and while my standard diet consists of a lot of spicy and acidic foods (am Mexican American), they tear me up right now. I miss spicy, saucy food so much, this looks amazing.

Well I worked as a cook in a Mexican restaurant for a few years, so yes. And I love cooking, I've made many Mexican style dishes. I have never been able to turn taco beef into tasteless creamy paste, nor would I ever want to!

What exactly do you think the ingredients at taco bell are? Can you.. like.. not see them slice the lettuce and tomatoes? They do it open air style in all the ones I've been at.

Ya. Taco Bell ingredients are like the version of an item from an alternate universe with like… one degree of separation from our own. It’s like… the uncanny valley of food. Is this nacho cheese? Or is this make believe? That’s how it tastes. Like pretend food.

So.. same as most products that you can get at a supermarket that aren't organic/are cheap. Bland tasting tomatoes that are just barely pink inside, watery and flavorless lettuce, average or below quality American cheese, the cheapest ground beef with 15-20% "connective tissue and other" and sub 10% fat (which is what gives it flavor).

Pretty sure if I make a taco with the cheapest of the above that I can find at Aldi it'll be indistinguishable (taste-wise) from one from taco bell

That said, their chicken has always been tasty (to me), and some stuff like the crunchwrap supreme was pretty consistently great.

I like Taco Bell sometimes too. I don't think organic has anything to do with it either. The place I described did crazy volume and went really fresh with their ingredients. Isn't fancy or expensive either. They also feed the 2am tossed out of the bar crowd. So they have a unique set of strengths that make them worth a drive to experience.

I grew up in South Texas, I have never had a burrito or enchiladas that look like this. We had actual Mexican food.

Wtf is this?

FYI, cheese and chili sauce on enchiladas is a texmex or American thing, you don't find lettuce, cheese, or tomato on tacos in Mexico.
