Favorite torchy's taco

[The University 851]

hard pass.

the only reasons i am keeping torchys in the rotation are that they're super close and open past 3.

Waiting for the 15th

The Maine Squeeze is the best Torchys taco ive ever had and def. worth a try. Soooo much lobster in mine. 

 

If it was half that price and on the regular menu, id eat there every day

August TOTM - 4 weeks of Hot - Week 1 Barn Burner

 

[Mr.Hovis 71]

My 15 year old and her friends love going to Torchy's, mostly for the fried avocado & totm. I can take or leave it,  but their newer place on Hwy.290 has a bar so I can set there and drink with an order of chips & queso while the girls cackle. Sometimes this place is too damn crowded though, was met outside(line was out the door) by an employee once that told me wait time for your order was 45 minutes. Umm, no thank you.

[UTPhil2006 3812]

This August, we’re taking spice to new heights. Exploding onto the scene is the heart-pumping, adrenaline-raising blockbuster you’ve been waiting for. Prepare yourselves — the Bottle Rocket Shrimp is ready for lift off.

With dynamite performances by Habanero battered fried shrimp, cabbage slaw, cotija cheese, candied jalapeños & cilantro, served with Diablo Mayo on a flour tortilla. That’s no CGI — this professional does all it’s own stunts.

[Hank_Hill 18894]

ugh.

[Neonmoon 38130]

Wife and I tried the Barn Burner. Spice was good, but not overpowering. I thought it was a little too meaty for my standards. 

 

[bluto 4942]

Barn burner was solid taste but I had to eat it like an Indian/Ethiopian dish tearing the tortilla apart to pick the stuff up. And not a fan of that poster not having a pic of the actual taco

Did the barn burner and bottle rocket shrimp. The barn burner was not even remotely spicy. The bottle rocket on the other hand was a lot spicier than previous years. Still feeling it.

 

Next week barn burner and maybe the scalding pig.

Dude, I love spicy food. I can handle a ton of spice. Love the Amazing Green Beans at Sap’s...but damn, that bottle rocket taco lit me up. Don’t think I would have enjoyed eating two.

Yup this one is putting a hurting on me more than usual. Gotta complete the challenge and do all 4 but I know I’ll end up paying for it.

Vaya con dios.

[utee94 15863]

I like to wait until the last week of the month and do all 4 in one sitting.

 

 

Oh wait, no I don't.

Man, you do that and I wouldn’t want to be you for that one sitting on the toilet afterwards. Fuego en el culo.

[Gardner Barnes 1562]

I’ve posted it here before but the Pig in 16 was not that hot. However, last year the pig was like the Station.

Looking forward to this year hopefully being somewhere in the middle of the two.

[UTPhil2006 3812]

[fluff 87]

The bottle rocket tore me up yesterday.  Just not even fun.

[ERhine 1907]

Bottle Rocket was a lot spicier than I remembered it being previously.

[utee94 15863]

Yeah bottle rocket was definitely spicier than previous years.  About the same as the Creeper I had with it.  Barn Burner seemed about the same as previous years.

Haven't had the pig yet.

 

[elfenix 34332]

Agreed on the bottle rocket, I was chugging water halfway through.

[Kermit 3158]

Th Creeper is worse coming out than it was going in. Much worse.

[utee05 9]

Creeper was tamer than the bottle rocket from both ends.

Ready for the pig next.

TOTM - September

[Bozo_Casanova 26554]

[utee05 9]

Damn that scalping won. Hurt on both ends. Was hotter than last year.

[relapse98 634]

Handmade? made from scratch? They must be bringing that shit in house because those tortillas are the worst thing there, by far.

I liked it a lot, but I'm a sucker for blue cheese and I added extra diablo sauce.

If they are going to in-house made tortillas I will stop my smear campaign against them.

Corn tortillas have a weird texture and are gross. Fight me.

[utee94 15863]

You sound really, really white.  I bet ghosts are embarrassed to be around you.  I bet Ole Miss grads are embarrassed to be around you.

[Steamboat1874 4085]

Shit I like a corn tortilla inside the flour one.
