Burritos are often eaten by hand, as their tight wrapping keeps the ingredients together. Burritos can also be served "wet", i.e., covered in a savory and spicy sauce, when they would be eaten with a fork and knife.

Burritos are filled with savory ingredients, most often a meat such as beef, chicken, or pork, and often include other ingredients, such as rice, cooked beans (either whole or [[Refried beans|refried]]), vegetables, such as lettuce and tomatoes, cheese, and condiments such as [[salsa (sauce)|salsa]], [[pico de gallo]], [[guacamole]], or [[Crema (dairy product)|crema]].

Burritos are often contrasted, in present times, with similar dishes, such as [[taco]]s, in which a small hand-sized tortilla is folded in half around the ingredients rather than wrapped and sealed, or with [[enchilada]]s, which use [[masa|corn masa]] tortillas, and are covered in a savory sauce, to be eaten with a fork and knife.
