A quick, easy, and crowd-pleasing breakfast burrito recipe cooked on a Blackstone griddle, perfect for feeding a hungry group with simple ingredients and a comforting smoky flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large eggs, room temperature
  • 810 bacon strips, thick-cut preferred
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil or butter, for cooking
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt, for serving (optional)
  • Salsa or hot sauce, to serve

Instructions

  1. Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-low heat (about 300°F / 150°C).
  2. Lay the bacon strips flat on the griddle and cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally until crispy. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, leaving bacon fat on the griddle.
  3. Add a teaspoon of olive oil or butter to the bacon fat. Sauté diced onions, bell peppers, and jalapeño if using for 4-5 minutes until softened and fragrant. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. In a bowl, whisk 12 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until frothy.
  5. Push veggies to one side of the griddle. Pour eggs onto cleared space and let sit undisturbed for 30 seconds. Gently stir and fold eggs slowly for 3-4 minutes to create soft, fluffy curds.
  6. Roughly chop cooled bacon and fold into eggs and veggies on the griddle. Add chopped cilantro last.
  7. Move egg mixture aside and warm tortillas on the griddle for 20-30 seconds per side until pliable.
  8. Spoon a generous portion of egg mixture onto each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and fold sides in, then roll tightly from one end to the other.
  9. Optional: Place rolled burrito seam-side down on the griddle for 1-2 minutes to crisp the outside and seal the wrap.
  10. Serve warm with sour cream and salsa on the side.

Notes

Cook eggs low and slow on medium-low heat to keep them fluffy and moist. Use bacon fat for added smoky flavor but drain if less grease is preferred. Warm tortillas on the griddle for pliability. Fold burritos tightly and optionally crisp seam-side down to seal. For vegetarian version, omit bacon and add sautéed mushrooms or black beans.
