Barbacoa Bowl — Did You Know?

Interesting facts about the Barbacoa Bowl

⏱️

Chipotle's barbacoa is braised for 8 hours with chipotle chilis, cumin, cloves and lime juice — the most labour-intensive preparation of any Chipotle protein.

🐄

Barbacoa uses beef cheek and shank — cuts that are far cheaper than steak but produce exceptional flavour and texture through slow braising. It's arguably the best-value premium Chipotle protein.

🌶️

Barbacoa is Chipotle's spiciest standard protein — the chipotle pepper and clove marinade creates a heat level that the other proteins don't match.
