Why We Love This Recipe

You can easily make these breakfast burritos ahead of time to reheat for breakfast on the go.

Step 3 – Spread the diced potatoes onto the grill on the butter on one side of the grill.  Cook for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes start to get tender.

Step 5 – Push the potatoes and sausage to a cooler side of the grill. Pour the beaten eggs onto the griddle and season the eggs with salt and pepper.  Scramble the eggs. Once the eggs are done, mix the scrambled eggs with the cooked chorizo and potatoes.  Spread the mixture into an evenly layer on the grill.

  • Step 8 – Clean off the Blackstone grill from the drippings and preheat the grill to medium high heat. 
  • Step 9 – Spread the avocado oil onto the grill with a spatula. 
  • Step 10 – Place each of the burritos, seam side down onto the grill and cook each side for 1-2 minutes until browned over medium low heat.  Watch them closely so that they do not get overcooked. 
  • Step 11 – Remove the burritos from the grill, serve warm and enjoy!  

Expert Tips

  • Prepare Veggies – Dice potatoes and onions small to ensure they cook evenly and quickly.
  • Type of Tortilla – I recommend using 10-12 inch size tortillas for this recipe. There are many different types of tortilla that fit into any diet.
  • Prepare Blackstone – To make sure that the ingredients do not stick to the grill and cook with the best, we recommend to preheat and melt butter on the griddle.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to Prevent Breakfast Burritos from Getting Soggy?

If you have a problem with your tortillas getting soggy, you may need to allow the egg mixture to cool before adding to the tortillas.

Can I Make Chorizo Breakfast Burritos in a Skillet?

These burritos can be made on a large pan instead of a Blackstone grill or griddle.  We like making them in a cast iron skillet as it is similar to cooking on the griddle.

How to Store Leftover Breakfast Burritos?

These burritos are best served immediately but you can refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.  

Can I Freeze Breakfast Burritos?

Yes, these breakfast burritos are perfect to meal prep with. I like to double the recipe so I can stock my freezer for a quick breakfast. Wrap the burritos in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. Place in a freezer safe container or ziplock bag. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the microwave.
