Critical Success Points

  • Pressing the beef while it cooks to achieve full Maillard browning.
  • Blooming gelatin in the broth for at least 10 minutes.
  • Cooling the beef before adding Greek yogurt to avoid curdling.
  • Rolling the burritos tightly to prevent leakage during reheating.
  • Proper storage: parchment‑wrapped in fridge, flash‑freeze then vacuum‑seal for freezer.

Safety Warnings

  • The skillet will be very hot; use oven mitts.
  • Pressing weight on hot meat can cause splatter – keep face away.
  • Handle hot broth with care to avoid burns.
  • Gelatin is a powder; avoid inhalation.
