Del Taco brings back Carnitas for a limited time + giveaway

July 3, 2017 Mad Hungry Woman 18 Comments

Del Taco is bringing back its tender, shredded pork Carnitas for a limited time (until the end of summer).  The braised, shredded pork Carnitas is cooked in small batch kettles which undoubtedly comes across in its taste. Combined with Del Taco’s already fresh ingredients, such as hand-grated cheddar, handmade pico de gallo, hand-sliced avocado and slow-cooked beans made from scratch, the Carnitas items include both new and old favorites:

–          NEW! Carnitas Street Taco Plato: Two tender braised, shredded pork Carnitas street tacos topped with tangy green sauce, diced onions, chopped cilantro and fresh hand-sliced avocado, served with fresca lime rice, slow-cooked beans made from scratch, chips and salsa.

–          NEW! Carnitas Wet Burrito Plato: A Carnitas Combo Burrito topped with tangy green sauce, hand-grated cheddar cheese and fresh hand-sliced avocado, served with fresca lime rice, slow-cooked beans made from scratch, chips and salsa.

–          Carnitas Combo Burrito (2 for $5): Two Carnitas Combo Burritos, featuring tender braised, shredded pork Carnitas combined with slow-cooked beans made from scratch, hand-grated cheddar cheese, and tangy green sauce in a warm flour tortilla.

–          Epic Carnitas Burrito: An Epic burrito loaded with tender braised, shredded pork Carnitas, hand-grated cheddar cheese, tangy chipotle sauce, fresca lime rice, seasoned black beans, and handmade pico de gallo salsa, wrapped in a warm, oversized flour tortilla.

–          Carnitas Loaded Fries: Crinkle-Cut Fries topped with tender braised, shredded pork Carnitas, hand-grated cheddar cheese, savory secret sauce, diced onions and chopped cilantro.

This week, I have some Del Taco giftcards to give away to my readers. Please leave a comment with your FULL name and which of these delicious items you want to try. Entries close on Sunday, July 9th, 2017

    I am most interested in trying the loaded fries. The only question is whether or not I would use a fork to eat them.

About Me

This blog is a journal of mostly my eating adventures, but also, other things I'm passionate about, including travel, the arts, and also, necessities to complete my life. Centered predominantly in and around Orange County, CA, some will extend to Los Angeles, San Diego and beyond. I am constantly searching for delicious food to eat and fun things to do, nothing is out of bounds. Sometimes it doesn't end well, but I can definitely say, it will always be an interesting journey.
