Introduce the recipe as a traditional Burro Percheron.

Prepare 1.7 kg of sirloin beef, trimming excess fat to about 600 grams for five burritos.

Cut the beef into small pieces and season with salt, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder.

Cook the beef on a griddle at medium-high heat for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent drying out.

Once the beef is browned, remove it from the griddle and place it in a traditional enamel dish.

Prepare two salsas: blend 1 can of chipotle with a bit of water for a smooth consistency, yielding about half a liter of salsa.

For the second salsa, blend 5 tablespoons of mayonnaise with 1 can of chipotle, adding water for texture.

Heat flour tortillas slightly to prevent them from breaking when rolling.

Layer cheese, avocado, beef, and tomato on the tortilla, ensuring the tomato is placed where the tortilla is doubled for stability.

Fold the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly to enclose the filling without breaking it.

Place the burrito back on the griddle to heat through and melt the cheese, optionally wrapping in aluminum foil for better heat retention.

Slice the burrito in half to reveal the filling and serve with additional salsa and lime.
