The Quest For The Perfect Grilled Stuft Burrito

The Perfect Grilled Stuft BurritoAccording to Christian mythology, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate, or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper, said to possess miraculous powers. Reports are sparse on what was actually eaten at the Last Supper, but we like to think that it was a Taco Bell Grilled Stuft Burrito. The Grilled Stuft Burrito is one of Taco Bell’s flagship items and being one of the largest and most flavorful, it is definitely last meal material.

After the Grilled Stuft Burrito’s debut, we here at BlogOutsideTheBun have been on a quest to find the perfect Grilled Stuft Burrito. When ordered from the menu, it consists of the meat of your choice, beans, seasoned rice, a three-cheese blend, Pepper Jack Sauce and Fiesta Salsa. That’s all fine and good, but the thing that separates this burrito from the others is the warmth and crunch that comes from pressing it the same way you would press a Quesadilla.

Typically, items on the Taco Bell menu can be made better. Sometimes it helps to add one thing or switch out another, but for a while we thought the Grilled Stuft Burrito was perfect. Fascinated, we put the item through rigorous trial and error. Adding Nacho Cheese changes the dynamic too much, while adding extra Baja Sauce was just a bit too overpowering.

The answer suddenly became clear when we decided to try something completely unprecedented. Taco Bell’s low-fat Sour Cream is cool and creamy and their Jalapeno Sauce has a quite a kick to it. Alone, these flavors were too much, but together they have the power to bring what was once dead back to life. This combination, coupled with its pre-existing taste, makes this Grilled Stuft Burrito worth dying for.

    My house got hit by lightning last Wednesday and my satellite television box got fried. :( I am trying to fix it myself. Do you know where I can find components inexpensively?

    Thanks,
