Beef Barbacoa Quesadilla with your choice of rice, beans and toppings.
The beef barbacoa quesadilla is a large flour tortilla filled with Monterey Jack cheese and beef barbacoa, grilled and cut into wedges, with three included sides such as salsa, sour cream, rice or beans. Chipotle lists quesadillas as a digital-only item, so order it in the app or on the website.
Barbacoa is Responsibly Raised beef that is cooked sous vide, marinated in chipotle adobo and then braised slowly with cumin, cloves, oregano and bay leaf until it shreds. It is spicier and juicier than steak, with 170 calories and 24 g of protein per portion, and it costs the same as steak.
At about $12.25, it costs $2.60 more than the same order with chicken. Built with the flour tortilla and two portions of Monterey Jack cheese (our estimate of the quesadilla filling), before the three included sides, it has about 710 calories and 44 g of protein.
