welcome to peep this out reviews with Ian K
stay frosty it's a cool crisp 103 degrees here in Southern Cali as I head
into El Pollo Loco to take a look at one of their returning overstuffed
quesadillas with this version being a barbecue bacon avocado and at first
glance you might mistaken us for the Crunchwrap supreme from Taco Bell and
honestly you wouldn't be wrong in thinking that considering how similar
they look with the toastiness of that outside folded tortilla feast your eyes
on a decent amount of fire grilled chicken along with chipotle BBQ sauce
some queso goodness bacon onion avocado and normally cilantro all tucked inside
a large flour tortilla that's folded over and grill pressed to a warm and
slightly crispy finish yeah this one's definitely packing the good stuff but
does it deliver on taste well we're gonna find out right now it's the
barbecue bacon avocado overstuffed quesadilla here at El Pollo Loco
let's peep out this flavor fresh from the grill and to be honest kind of
looking like the other guys just a bit and speaking of the grill that's exactly
what it feels like I'm on right now I am so over this heat let's do this it's the
barbecue bacon avocado overstuffed quesadilla from El Pollo Loco mmm I got
an instant upfront and in-your-face shot of avocado and that chipotle BBQ sauce
and a little bit of the saltiness of the bacon coming in on the back end didn't
taste the chicken at all in that one but guys it's pretty tasty let's keep going
well the cheesy queso of goodness that I got in that second bite actually goes
amazingly well with the bacon as you'd expect it to because bacon and melted
cheese how could you go wrong with that right
that's already a plus and the bacon itself is actually pretty crunchy it's a
little bit on the saltier side but it goes amazingly well in general with
everything so far but the avocado is nice on this guy's the creaminess of
that along with the fire grilled chicken is tasty really digging this not bad
those couple of bites pretty much obliterated any of the avocado that was
in this one but as you can see there's a plentiful amount of bacon in here along
with that chipotle sauce and just overall a decent amount of chicken it's
nice and crunchy on the tortilla itself and even though this has got the essence
of the Crunchwrap supreme in my head right now it's a very nice summer
barbecue type of Flair this one's got really nice in terms of the quality of
it let me pick up the other half because this one seems just a little bit more
packed here it's a decent amount of filling that they give you on this one
guys and I have to say even though the presentation like I said reminds me of
something from the other guys it really is a nice combo of having something
suited for the summer barbecue-wise but giving you a little bit of
that Mexican flair as well and like I mentioned earlier the cheesy queso along
with the bacon is always a major highlight whenever those two get
together on anything it's always gonna be a party guys and naturally with
something like this this just adds to it the nice chewiness that I'm getting from
the tortilla and everything on the inside it's pretty solid
so aside from some of the extra saltiness that I mentioned as you can
see this is pretty much a summer barbecue on the inside of that tortilla
there's a lot of filling on this one guys there's plenty of that Chipotle
barbecue sauce which has a nice sweetness to it and the smokiness that
it's packing on top of the bacon itself really are the standouts with this one
in addition to the cheese itself and then naturally the chicken pretty tasty
I just wish it had a little bit more avocado but aside from that and
everything else you just heard this is definitely worth your time especially if
you're a fan of smoky barbecue type flavors it presents well it tastes great
and price-wise it's not bad considering how thick and hearty this is so overall
I'm gonna have to give the barbecue bacon avocado overstuffed quesadilla
here at El Pollo Loco and decent 8 out of 10 if they can dial back the
saltiness just a bit on this and add maybe a little bit more avocado to
balance all of it out I think this would be much closer to a 9 but as it
stands it's pretty delicious guys and like I said definitely worth your time
but as always that's just my opinion what do you guys think have any of you
