Shredded beef was first offered by the chain around this time last year with a similar menu. The beef is slow-simmered in a stew of tomatoes, onions, garlic, cumin, chipotle peppers, chiles, and Mexican oregano and shredded by hand to order.
The new Shredded Beef Torta comes with the shredded beef, hand-sliced avocado, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, pinto beans, chopped cabbage, pico de gallo, and chipotle cream on a bolillo roll.
The Shredded Beef Grande Taco feature an artisan tortilla grilled to order and filled with shredded beef, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, pico de gallo, and chipotle cream.
The Shredded Beef Stuffed Quesadilla contains shredded beef, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, hand-sliced avocado, chopped cabbage, and chipotle cream wrapped in a warm flour tortilla.
The limited-time menu items are served a la carte or as part of a combo meal with chips and a small drink starting at $5.49. Price and participation may vary.
