The Orange Chicken Chipotle Burrito

The Orange Chicken Chipotle Burrito

Okay, thinking about this honestly takes me back a few years. I can remember a few of my friends talking about this whenever we would stop at a Chipotle on tour. Usually wherever the Chipotle was, you could turn around and see a Panda Express within walking distance. One of my friends had such a large appetite that he would often eat two Chipotle burritos or a burrito and a quesadilla in one sitting. I thought that was pretty crazy at the time. So as we were walking out of the Chipotle after one of these said times, a friend of mine looked over at a Panda Express and was like, "You won't eat an Orange Chicken Chipotle Burrito." And so the legend was born.

From that day on, no one ever dared to even try and eat one of these things. Sure we'd talk about it and lie and say that we were, "Gonna do it the next time I go!" But it never happened. So the Orange Chicken Chipotle Burrito never happened, and we honestly didn't talk about it for a while. Just recently though we started talking about it again, and I thought about it for a second or two and made me decision. I was gonna eat that bitch! Yeah! I love orange chicken, especially from Panda, and hell yeah I love Chipotle Burritos. Who doesn't? It was a done deal.

So here it is:

1 Chipotle Burrito consisting of the following:

Chicken

Pinto and Black Beans

Rice

Sour Cream

Guacamole

Cheese

Lettuce

Hot Salsa

Then I unwrapped the burrito and added the following:

1 small side of Orange Chicken from Panda Express

blam!

In all honestly, this thing was pretty tough. For $11.25 all in all this was seriously the biggest and most badass burrito I've ever eaten in my ENTIRE life. It was pretty crazy tasting burrito, I'll tell you that much. Both the orange chicken and the spicy charbroiled chicken. The only problem was in all honesty the next morning, I felt like I had a mexican and chinese man wrestling each other in the middle of my lower intestine. I now truly realize why none of us ever stepped up to the plate and took this bad boy out. Oh I did, and i the words of someone who is probably reading this, "pics or it didn't happen".

Panda-Pote, YOU WONT

The Double-Double Down

I've decided to raise the bar up to a higher level of eating. I came to this conclusion when I realized that no longer would the normal Double Double or the brand new Double Down please my appetite. So on a whim I decided, why not combine the two and create and ultra mighty burger. Basically what I was going to do was take apart the Double Double, place the Double Down in between the two patties, put it back together, and shabam! Thus, the Double-Double Down (aka Chimeran Cheeseburger) was created.

This was a big deal to me, since I really love both of these places and both of the sandwiches very much! So I made the trip over to KFC and I picked up:

1 Double Down

Afterwards, I went over to In N Out and I picked up:

1 Double Double animal style w/ chopped chillies

I got back to my destination and placed both of the bags down next to each other and prepared myself for an epic journey of flavor. Then I took both of the beauties out of their paper chariots and laid them gently nestled next to each other and well uh, I s'pose I could go on but I'm sure the pictures would do the justice of what really went down....

Stackin' it up

The Double-Double Down

nom nom nom

In all honestly the haters can hate and the lovers can love all they want, but I swear this beast of a burger was pretty damn good. For both of the sandwiches I payed a grand total of $8.83 on this lunch of mine, which isn't that bad at all. So as I sit here typing and digesting this animal inside of me, I can only conclude that I might probably eat one again...maybe.
