Cheesy, spicy, and built for flavor seekers, the Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito is Taco Bell’s all-new irresistible innovation.
Taco Bell is setting taste buds ablaze nationwide with the debut of the Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito, the latest innovation featuring an all-new Flamin’ Hot Rice, melty grilled cheese exterior, and layers of irresistible Taco Bell flavor. The Beefy Crunch Burrito may be the classic, but the Flamin’ Hot® Grilled Cheese Burrito takes things in a new direction – cheesier, spicier, and ready to ignite a new wave of cravings. Available at participating restaurants nationwide starting October 16, this burrito is the newest star of Taco Bell’s innovation-packed Luxe Cravings line-up.
The All New Flamin’ Hot Rice
In true Taco Bell fashion, the burrito doesn’t just remix a fan favorite – it introduces something entirely new. The Flamin’ Hot Rice, prepared with Fritos Flamin’ Hot chips and a zesty seasoning blend of red peppers, cheddar cheese powder, garlic, paprika, and lime delivers a cheesy, fiery kick unlike anything fans have experienced before at Taco Bell. The rice is built to bring the heat and daring enough to inspire its own cult following.
The all new Flamin’ Hot Rice is joined by nacho cheese sauce, seasoned beef, creamy chipotle sauce, Fritos Flamin Hot’ chips, reduced fat sour cream, three-cheese blend, and a layer of melty grilled cheese on the outside for a boldly cheesy, spicy, crunchy bite.
Turning Up the Heat
Just the phrase Flamin’ Hot evokes a heatwave of flavor and mouthwatering zest. With this launch, Taco Bell isn’t just remixing a classic, it’s sparking a crossover moment for two legendary fanbases. The Beefy Crunch Burrito remains an icon, but sets the stage for Flamin’ Hot fans and Beefy Crunch Burrito loyalists to unite over a new fiery innovation. From Flamin’ Hot Doritos Locos Tacos to Doritos Flamin’ Hot Cool Ranch mashups from years past, fans are eager for another Flamin’ Hot collaboration to hit menus. The Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito delivers that same signature flavor fans love, while adding in a delectably cheesy layer.
“We know how much love there is for the signature spice of Flamin’ Hot, and our fans are always looking for cheesier, crunchier menu items from us,” said Liz Matthews, Taco Bell’s Global Chief Food Innovation Officer. “The Flamin’ Hot Grilled Cheese Burrito brings all these elements together – taking the heat, the crispy Fritos crunch, and cheesy goodness on the inside and out of our classic burrito.”
