TUCSON, ARIZONA – Welcome to Tucson, Arizona, an amazing food city and it happens to be a UNESCO City of Gastronomy. Along with a ton of amazingly delicious food, the chimichanga, which is a deep fried burrito often covered in sauce, was invented at a restaurant called El Charro Cafe! Today we’re going to eat the original chimichanga, filled with carne seca, a spectacular sun dried beef.

In 1922, Tia Monica Flin had a wrapped burrito in hand when she accidentally dropped it into the deep fat fryer. After being deep fried, it turned out it was a good thing, and they kept it! I love any accidental deep fry story and the chimichanga is no different. Today, they are known for a number of different things – inventing the original chimichanga, and carne seca, thin slices of beef which sun dry in a hanging cage above the restaurant. The carne seca is dried for two days, then shredded and cooked down with onions, tomatoes, and chilies. It’s then filled into your chimichanga. The combination of deep fried crispy tortilla and the smoky condensed flavor of the carne seca was something truly special.

Jeffrey, Mexi Papa, Adam, and I, all agreed that this is a one of a kind restaurant and the food is absolutely delicious. Without a doubt one of the best Mexican American / Tex Mex restaurants I’ve ever been too. That accidental deep fried burrito (a chimichanga) is truly a culinary experience and a gem of Tucson, Arizona.

  1. Thank you for sharing Mark! Just loved learning the origin of the Chimichanga, my favorite! Hope to someday visit El Charro in Tucson, AZ…food looks soooooo delicious? especially watching it being prepared and eaten ?

  2. Does anyone else get slightly grossed out watching Jeffrey eat? (Jabba the Hutt mouth?). I’m seriously asking… Google Jabba and then watch this video to see what I mean.

  3. At 7:43 – I never knew how to fold a burrito before this!! Sometimes we learn the big things from Mark, sometimes we learn the super simple things!! Glad to see you traveling again!! Be safe!

  4. We eat chimichangas all day in California especially in southern California it's in every Mexican American restaurant's menu here .you guys maybe haven't seen them but trust me we got them on the daily.. I'm from Indio, California the Coachella valley area you should swing by here an see for yourself wat great food we got to offer

  5. shame on you man! Are you alive for Eating and over acting only. Do Some work in life. You must make huge money this kind of overacting. But You Know other people also know how to eat. Bloody eat some small bite. looking very funny.

  6. I admire you guys I don't know if it's urgent but can you send me please and let me know how that is going we grow lime's and everything else you might like to get here that would be awesome thanks

  7. If you go here and want the carne seca get the carne seca platter. It's so good by itself. You can make it into tacos with your tableside guacamole. In the chimichanga it's dry on top of dry. Also the house salsa here is really good. Perfect level of chili.
