Prepare the meat
Trim fat from the meat and cut it into 3 to 4 pieces. Put the meat in a large cooking pot (4 qt or larger), add the tomatoes (with their juice), the onion, chipotle chile, oregano, cumin and garlic. Cover and cook over low heat for 8 to 10 hours.
Remove from the heat and using two forks, shred the meat.
Assemble the burritos
Warm the tortillas in the oven or microwave, according to instructions on the packaging. Spoon 1/6th of the beef mixture on each tortilla, just below the center. Top with the shredded cheese, pico de Gallo salsa and sour cream. Roll up the tortilla and repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.
Serve with extra pico de Gallo salsa, guacamole, sour cream and shredded cheese.
