Instructions

1
Season the beef roast generously on all sides with paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Rub the seasonings into the meat.
2
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef roast on all sides until well browned.
3
Place the chopped onion in the bottom of a slow cooker. Add the seared beef roast on top.
4
In a measuring cup, dissolve the chicken bouillon powder in 3 cups of water. Pour the liquid into the slow cooker around the beef.
5
Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 6 hours, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
6
Towards the end of the cooking time, slice the green bell pepper and the remaining white onion.
7
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet and sauté the sliced onion and bell pepper until softened. Set aside.
8
Once cooked, remove the beef from the slow cooker and place it in a large bowl. Shred the beef using two forks.
9
Season the shredded beef with an additional teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Mix well to combine.
10
Warm a large flour tortilla. Place a portion of the shredded beef in the center.
11
Top the beef with a spoonful of cooked Mexican rice, some of the sautéed peppers and onions, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
12
Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
13
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the burritos seam-side down in the hot oil.
14
Fry the burritos for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on a paper towel.
15
To serve, slice the fried burritos into pieces. Arrange them on a plate with a side of Mexican rice.
16
Top the burrito pieces with more shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, Mexican crema, and salsa. Serve with a roasted jalapeño on the side.
