Pork meat cut for burritos (and carne con chile in general) is usually
"pork butt."
It -is- a lot of work, though, as it comes in 5-10 lb. "butts," and
requires quite a bit of boning and dicing, not to mention the
Dutch-oven-sized pot you'll probably need to use to cook it in. Believe it
or not, so-called "Pork taco meat" works for me, mostly 'cause it comes in
1-to-2 lb. pkgs. It appears to be derived from either pork butt, or
Boston butt roast, or a similar cut o' pork.
Mmm... now I gotta go look in the freezer...
