Go Burger - Green Chile Meat Burrito

The beginning of lunch trek. We finally hit up Go Burger, a place we tried to visit early in BQ2 but discovered it's one of many burr-stablishments that are only open around lunch hours. At 11 inches long and a hefty fill, it had the trifecta: size, taste, and price. Go Burger reminds Daniel of the many home-grown drive-up food places that litter the Carlsbad, NM landscape. They were voted both Best Burrito and Best Local Taco by the Las Cruces Sun News. What the fuck a 'Local Taco' is, we don't know. Also, they have a byzantine drive-thru process. Ben clarifies the correct way to tell a 'your mom' joke. We like burritos. Correct: Your mom likes burritos. Incorrect: I liked burritos with your mom last night. Then Daniel gets confused.

Ingredients - Green Chile, Pork, and Potato

Ratings:
Ben - The time of year where you don't have your AC on and you don't have your heater on, everything just feels perfect.
Daniel - When you try on a t-shirt for the first time and it fits just right.

My Isaac impersonation is inspired, though.

Two is more work than three. I can't do everything, Ben!

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!
