Richie's Beef Burritos are always super-tasty and Richie's Beef Burritos are always super-tasty and always made with grass-fed beef, pinto beans, cheddar cheese, Richie's salsa.

If you're one of the many who enjoy our beef burrito, you may notice a slightly different texture next time you munch on one. Richie is still using the same quality, grass-fed beef. It now has a slightly different texture to improve consistency. Hope you enjoy and thanks again for your support! πŸ™ πŸ‘ 😊 🌯
