Tried Chipotle's new brisket last night. Its ok, not bad but also dont get a distinct brisket taste.
And damn this is getting expensive. $11 after taxes for just the burrito!

I thought about going myself but the locations don't pull up on the maps at all. So I just got it delivered.

I had the brisket a while back. It's definitely not a cancerous, disgusting ass-destroy disaster like their chorizo was. It's something I could see eating again if my mood was right. If you got a store that still does the oldschool quesadillas it'd probably shine in one of those.

We in the industry refer to it as "battered", same way I like my mozz sticks. Its a pain in the ass to produce battered items over breaded items though, so that plays a factor.

Their on the menu quesadillas are overpriced and suck. The old burrito fold quesadilla is a million times better and cheaper if your store does it, but it's an off the menu thing.

All batter/breaded items get both a batter and breading, its the final step that determines if its breaded or battered. If its Batter > Breader > Batter > Breader, thats a 4 pass breaded product. If its Predust > Batter > Breader > Batter, then its a 4 pass batter product

yea mcdee nugs is (light/water) batter > breader > (tempura) batter
i've been trying to see on youtubes if there are any frozen nugs that use as good of a process
i also learned that not only does chik fil a bread their patties in house, they also (milkwash > bread) their nugs in house too
i thought the nugs were at least frozen with the kind of volume they do

Just got an email for a free chicken sandwich from Popeyes with a $10 order. Fuuuuck, I was supposed to start being good again this week on my calories, but I'm so tempted to get one and also try their nuggs. Our Popeyes is just fucking awful, though, and I haven't gotten a single order from there that hasn't been screwed up.
e: alright now I'm confused as fuck at the pricing on the Popeyes app. Looking at an 8pc nugg combo, a large is listed at 7.92, medium at 7.56, and the small...at 8.99. WTF?

I declare kfc the winner for chicken sandwich. Quality has been off both my last attempts at popeye. I used to argue that they were better. The patty is larger but the breading was hyper salty 2nd to last time more than usual, last night went to try the nuggets. Both them and the sandwhich didn't look burnt but the batter was like almost sandy and awful tasting.

Mistakes were made, of course. Nuggs were tasty, I always enjoy a good biscuit, but as always, order was fucked up. Got an 8pc nugg instead of the 12 I ordered, the fries came in a tall bag instead of the box..., and they didn't give me my damn beignets.
