That he himself (Jesus) could eat it,
not Homer....

The question is a paradox. Jesus is supposedly able to do anything. If he were to make a burrito so hot that he could not eat it, it would show that he has a limited ability to eat hot foods, which could not happen. However, if he were able to eat the ultimate hot burrito, that would show that he was not capable of making a hot enough burrito. Therefore, both ways could not happen.
Never doubt the wisdom of Homer Simpson.

For the sake of argument, lets accept Jesus's powers (God's powers) as fact. (People accept questions about Superman without diatribes on how Superman is fictitious, so let's not go there, but simply answer the question given the parameters.)
Let's break this question down:
Given that Jesus has infinite powers, can Jesus microwave a burrito so hot that he cannot eat it?
....
Well, of course. Being almighty, he has the power to do anything he chooses. If he chooses to burn his mouth, it is certainly within his power. In fact, he doesn't even need a hot burrito to do so.
If he chose, he could burn his mouth with a cool Tootsie Pop. (Now that's power!)
Being almighty means he has true Free Will, meaning he can literally do anything. He differs from Superman in this point. Superman is mighty, but not almighty.
As a matter of fact, I'm not sure that Superman actually has the ability to cut his hair. How would he do it? Kryptonite scissors and razors? That would be like shaving with a nuclear reactor. Not wise. (He must not grow hair like a human... after all, he's not one.)
Sorry about the segue.

I think a more correct question would be, "Can God create a stone so heavy that He himself could not lift it?"
I'm interested to know what the religious folks will say, but i'll stick with
a) There's no God
b) God don't lift stones or cook burritoes..in fact He does nothing but watch us kill each other over who is right about him

Cheating there are you? The real question is from Philosophy 101 and it is: Can God make a rock that is too heavy for Him to lift? And my answer is that if you study the Bible you will find the answer and if you keep saying things so disrespectful of God, he may just nuke your little buttito crispy.

Oh, now that's silly. That has nothing to do with Jesus and everything to do with the microwave he's using.

For the faithful, the answer is yes.
As an agnostic, the answer is I don't know.
