i have lived on the west coast or desert southwest almost my entire adult life and have never heard of a wet burrito!
From the recipe that someone posted,looks like we call an enchilada,and like someone said deep fry it and you have a chimichanga

To me an enchilada is baked in the oven in the sauce and a burrito is done on top of the stove or on a grill. Burritos are most often eaten dry in hand but are very special when served "wet" with a special yummy sauce. Enchiladas are rolled with the ends open and burritos are folded with the ends enclosed. It's all delicious!

my sister makes a mean wet burrito, but it's too late to call her, (3 a.m. here). i don't remember the recipe but i know how to make it. the sauce is chili based, maybe with picante, i'm not sure it's been too long since i've made it. but after 25 yrs in texas i have a nearly constant craving for tex-mex. can't wait to see your recipe!

What's the name of the electric company? There are several people here from northern Michigan...I can check with them and see if, by chance, they might have the recipe.

This is the link to the magazine recipe site. The recipe that I used was from 1987-89. Thats when we lived there.

Someone might even have a recipe in a regional cookbook from there.

I used to vacation in the UP when I was a kid - back then the dish to have was "pasties" with a short "a". I don't think they even knew what a "burrito" was back then.

I'm originally from MI and I would LOVE a pastie right now! Yum! I may have to make some next week.

I live in New Mexico. Only here can I get or make mexican food.
The clear sauce, sounds like a green chili sauce.
There is a breakfast buttito. If it is deep fried it is a chimichanga.
I will try to write these down and post them for you. The chili you get will not be the same though.
Even in Texas, they have tex-mex,,,it is bad,bad,bad.

Here is a recipe from County Lines, the electric company site. It is not what I was looking for, but someone else might be interested in it. The ones I have had were individually made, not baked together as a casserole and the sauce on this one is not what I'm looking for, but I still haven't found the right sauce recipe. Still searching......woe is me....................

Pan Burritos
Ingredients
2-8 oz. cans enchilada sauce
12 oz. tomato sauce
1 t. garlic salt
2 lb. hamburger, browned and drained
1 lg. can refried beans
9 flour tortillas
4 c. mild cheddar cheese

Directions
Toppings:
Shredded lettuce
Diced tomatoes
sour cream

Combine enchilada sauce, tomato sauce and garlic salt. Combine 1/2 of this mixture with the hamburger. In a 9×13 inch baking dish, place a thin layer of the meat/sauce mixture. Layer ingredients as follows. 3 tortillas, 1/2 meat mixture, 1 cup cheddar cheese, 3 tortillas, refried beans, remaining meat mixture, 1 cup cheddar cheese, 3 tortillas, plain sauce and remaining cheese. Bake at 325° for 45 minutes. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve with fresh, shredded lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream on the side.

I have a recipe from someone in North Dakota. The sauce called for:

1 (15 ounce) can chili without beans
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce

Does that sound right?
