Week Three

All American

“Holy craps was this burrito huge. And dry. The burrito needed copious amounts of salsa to make us feel we weren't eating crumbled paper stuffed inside a tortilla. Also, the bacon and green chile take a backseat to the domineering meats ( steak and chicken) and the taste suppressing overlord that is potato. In my opinion, the potato was probably the biggest knock against this combination. The bland ingredient served really no purpose but to increase the overall mass of the burrito. The cheese was actually tasted this time and added a slightly moist compliment to an otherwise drought ridden swimming pool of mashed food.” - Isaac

Ingredients: Steak, Chicken, Potato, Bacon, Green Chile, Cheese

Burrito Quest is all about...stamina. We (Ben, Isaac, and Daniel) ate our way through the Specialty Burrito menu at Santa Fe Grill, a fast food eatery located inside Pic Quik convenience stores in Las Cruces, New Mexco. This list is a good 60 burritos long, and it took us all of 2009, and a quarter of 2010.

Along the way we met and (we like to think) befriended a burristro who we named Salsa Bro. Toward the end of our quest, Salsa Bro was unceremoniously fired for, rumor has it, giving free burritos to pretty ladies. What man wouldn't, we ask you?

And so, our primary quest finished, we pushed on, searching the Land of Burritos (Las Cruces, NM burrito-serving establishments) for our old friend. Alas, though we searched wherever one would hope to find a Burrito Maestro handing out free burritos to hot chicks, he was not to be found.

But primary failure did not stop us. There were still burritos to be had, and to have our way with. Burritos HOOOOOO! We picked up the pace a bit, embarking on BQ3: Triple Trek! Flipping back and forth, hitting up establishments only open at lunch, frequenting Mesilla burrito-holes, and interspersing them both with palate-cleansing Taco Bell. Did we survive? Yes. The Quest, however, we failed.

And so a new quest begins. Ben, now making his home in the land of vegetarianism, invites Daniel to take a journey through this magical bowel-cleansing realm. Together they set out on a bold new endeavor, to eat burritos of the meatless kind. One vegan, one meatan(?), the walk a lonely road: Twelve Vegetarian Burritos for 2012!
