Anyone try the Taco Bell grillers yet? Had one yesterday while shopping, I think they it will be a hit. The buffalo one is like a burrito full of lava sauce. The tortilla was like a flakey pastry. 99 cents too

>> No.4098697

The chicken one was mostly sour cream for me.
The potato one was like a cheese rollup with a bit o potato
The beef one had no tortilla strips and made me sad.

Ah crap I checked out some reviews and lot of people complain about theirs being made wrong. My buffalo had a big hole in it and leaked hot sauce all over my hand and for some reason my taco supreme ate a hole thru the wrapper. I really like the tortilla though.

The buffalo one is great. Tastes nothing like buffalo chicken though, should probably be named something else.

The potato one was too rich for me but I expect there are lots of people who will love it.

Didn't try the beefy nacho one, but if you look at what's in it, it's nothing new anyway. Standard TB fare which is fine.

I subbed out the cheese sauce for actual cheese on the beefy nacho. It was decent for the price. I wonder if they'd sub the sauces in the buffalo for the quesadilla sauce to sort of bring back the flatbread sandwich

This is the third time my store has had and advertised these as being new. I think the beefy nacho is retarded and the spicy buffalo chicken tastes nothing like hot wings, but, god help me, I LOVE the loaded potato griller. Throw some onions on that bitch and it is SCRUMPTIOUS.

They're seriously skimping on the fillings for these from what I understand, even by Taco Bell standards. The beef one @ 99% had HALF the total protein their 89% Cheesy Beef Burritos used to have.

You guys have good luck with all the mods and substitutions at taco bell? Aside from adding guac occasionally, I have rarely made changes. Its a pain in the ass elsewhere and was not sure if they would dick it up or spit in my food for acting so entitled.

There would be some potential there is why I ask... But I wonder how far you could go with it. Don't see why it should be an issue, they just mix up the same 7 things and somehow have 30 items on the menu, I just hate waiting until the ones I like are in season.

Since they discontinued the Cheesy Bean & Rice Burrito, I used to tell them to make me a 7-Layer Burrito with no lettuce and substitute pico de gallo for the guacamole and add nacho cheese.

They discontinued the Mexican Rice, so I just order a Bean Burrito with sour cream.

>> No.4102045

I had one of the nacho grillers tonight. They did something interesting... Its like they put the crunchy strips on the edge of the tortilla, folded over, then added all the wet ingredients. The crunchy things stayed dry because of that and were actually crunchy. Thing stayed warm for quite a while too... seemed that the shell was really thick and a good insulator.

Interesting, but it still have that schmegma-tastin cheese sauce and under-spiced beef. If they would put the old chili cheese burrito (chilito) meat in there, it would be worth of bj's.

Had a buffalo too. Too goddamn hot for me. It was a notch hotter than lava sauce, and lava is right on the border of "tastes great" and "heat is to distracting to the flavor".

Might get one again, but would prefer the sour cream as a dipping sauce... Its too mooshy inside the burrito.

Because they never put on enough beef and always use too much sour cream, also I despise iceberg lettuce. In all ends up being too much soft and hard shell compared to meat. Beefy nacho burrito has a better balance.

They seem to be taking the wrong path with stuff like that. They insisted on slowly replacing real cheese with the flour + water + cheese flavoring horseshit they call "nacho cheese". And now the texture is completely off with everything that stuff touches. When nacho cheese was served with nachos is was decent. Liquidy spooge, offset by the hard crunch of tortilla chips which seem more durable than cucharachas. I enjoyed them quite a bit. When they start putting that stuff inside wet burritos, its starts getting crazy. Oh, and let's throw in some sour cream for good measure.

Nacho cheese from TB used on anything other than nachos is the worst concept they have ever pulled out their ass.


>>4102376

And yes, crunchwrap is for suckers. A wise anon earlier called it "hot salad". That's a perfect description. The crunchwrap takes it to a new level though. Not only is the cold stuff hot and the hot stuff cold, but its all stuck in a sauna and getting waterlogged by steam. Perhaps if you are silly enough to go inside and side on chairs and tables that are identical to what they use in prisons (easier to clean off the HIV) and get a sore ass, you *might* be able to eat it while its fresh enough to not be steamed...

Seriously tho... I think you just like that juvenile cheese sauce.

Tried the buffalo and the nacho. I was a bit taken aback when I started nomming on the buffalo. Texture, flavor, heat, and the tortilla (I never dug the grilled stuff, so this was one of the few times I've had it). It was a bit surprising being used to biting into various ratios of the same soupy shit every time. All in all, not too bad. Buffy was a little rich, being largely comprised of liquid cheese and hot sour cream. I think that shit would go better as a nacho dip.

I'm anxious to try the potatoe action. Very meatless items on the menu so gf. Any other meatless items that I'm missing beside this and potatoe burrito -beef and beaner burritos? I know you can ask them to leave off the meat, but anything there tastes better without it or it goes un-noticed?

I have only heard good things about the potatoes so far. Weird tho, I have never heard anything good about their other potatoe + tortilla offerings. Hopefull it works out. And of course they have reserved the right keep an item and reserve the variations. Baja Chicken Chalupa was a work of art. When they discontinued that, imagine the video slows down, the voices pitches drop. Screen goes black. Ray Liotta announces that "the motherfuckers were on top of the world. They could serve anythingthing they wanted... But then they fucked up... "

Tried the Potato and Chicken one before. Both are quite good. I do prefer the Potato one though most. Skipped the beef one because it's a pretty standard offering as far as TB's other items go.

God damnit now I feel like TB....I just had it last night and I feel so god damn awful craving it again. What the hell is wrong with me, I eat right, I'm lean and skinny and I am fucking addicted to this stuff.
