Chipotle announced the return of its Smoked Brisket at all participating restaurant locations in the U.S. and Canada. This comeback is happening three years after it has been removed on the menu. Even when it was out of sight, the Smoked Brisket remained the top item requested to bring back. Chipotle heard their fans and so the brand is offering again what they love. According to Chris Brandt, Chipotle’s Chief Brand Officer, guests will be impressed by the restaurant’s way of preparing its brisket. It’s how they stand out in the competition.
Vice President of Culinary, Nevielle Panthaky, also has a suggestion for those trying the Smoked Brisket for the first time: get the Smoked Brisket Burrito Bowl. It offers a flavor adventure where guests can enjoy the juicy and smoky brisket along with white rice and black beans. The cheese and fresh tomato salsa makes the meal tastier and more refreshing.
Chipotle’s Smoked Brisket is back for a limited time only, so be sure to get yours today! It might just be the brunch option that you need after some Taco Bell locations decided to discontinue the breakfast menu. To stay in the loop about the latest food news, keep an eye on our future articles.
Chipotle only uses Responsibly Raised beef for its smoked brisket. Various and effective culinary techniques are then used to bring out the rich flavors of the brisket. Of course, the dining experience wouldn’t be complete without pairing the protein with other fresh ingredients. The brisket is chopped in small, juicy bites and smothered in a brisket sauce made using chili peppers. The reason why the brisket is so tasty? It’s also seasoned with more spices and seared on the plancha. Every bite gives powerful smoky flavors. To keep the freshness of this menu item, it is prepared in small batches throughout the day.
Chicken Al Pastor is Also Back for a limited time. It’s made with freshly grilled chicken flavored with a marinade of ground achiote and seared morita peppers. It has the right level of acidity as well, thanks to the addition of pineapple and lime. The bold flavor of Chicken Al Pastor can be enjoyed in a salad, quesadilla, burrito, or burrito bowl. Top it off with fresh Guacamole for a Mexican dining experience like no other!
Chipotle has also added some new beverages. They’re what the brand calls “better-for-you” offerings. For years, the brand has stood by its mission to deliver meals that are better for you, better for people, and better for the planet. The launching of these drinks is part of that mission:
- Poppi: The restaurant has partnered with Texas-based Poppi to offer prebiotic soda in two refreshing flavors: orange and strawberry-lemon. These drinks have more or less 25 calories per can and five grams of sugar.
- Open Water’s Still Water: In an attempt to remove all plastic water bottles in its U.S. restaurants, Chipotle is also offering water contained in recyclable and climate-neutral bottles. A portion of Open Water’s revenue in Chipotle restaurants will be donated to agriculture projects focused on improving coastal waters.
- Organic Watermelon Limeade: This seasonal drink features the refreshing flavor combination of real lime and watermelon from Tractor Beverage Co. It’s made with all-natural ingredients with no preservatives added. Additionally, 5% of profits from sale of this beverage will benefit causes that support farme
