The Prime Cut Taqueria BEAN AND CHEESE BURRITO in Placentia, CA! Heard these guys were donating a percentage of sales to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank to support the LA Wildlife Relief Fundraiser, so I had to run up a quick tab. The bean and cheese burrito was incredible, no-note having refried beans, lush yet memorably textural beans, a thick layer of main-character energy fried cheese on one of the most memorable tortillas I've had in maybe my last 50 burritos. I don't know what they put in it, but it's a translucent king, stretchy, malleable, damn near perfect and it has a nice char which really spoke to the smokiness this entire place provides. I also ordered the surf n turf burrito, big cuts of steak and shrimp, great rice, same remarkable beans and wrapped in a perfect tortilla. This place is absolutely worth a visit, I'll be back to eat through the rest of the menu. Where yall think this burrito lands in the Top 100 list? Top 20? Top 10? LMK ❤️❤️😮‍💨😮‍💨👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

One of the best bean and cheese burritos in the game belongs to @Miguel's Jr so I had to try their sit down, full service restaurant: Miguel's California Mexican Cocina in Corona, CA. It feels different in the restaurant, sitting outside with a beautiful view of the lake, or inside with all the homages to the Miguel's Jr family history, place is absolutely must try if you're in the area or driving through. Now back to the food: The Bean and Cheese is in top form here. Great tortilla, unmatched lard-y flavorful beans with just the right amount of sticky icky to em, great cheese and salsas that need to be on everything. Also last time I came we ordered their molcajete and it was definitely something I wanted the rest of the gang to try. We ordered up the mixed grill with chicken, steak, shrimp, queso panela and nopales (cactussss). Outside of the bean and cheese, it's now my go-to dish here cause it's so much delicious protein and it gets rolled to your table like bottle service 😭😮‍💨❤️🥰💪🏽 I'll get a full video of it soon /w @Marc Kharrat and @Food With Bros ! Where y'all think this burrito will land on the Top 100 Bean and Cheese Burrito list?! Where should I go next 🤷 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

The Taco Deli bean and cheese burrito 🌯 in Dallas, TX is so good I had to include it on the list, despite it not being labeled a "burrito." This place only serves tacos, but while in Dallas I kept seeing "bean and cheese" everywhere, and it was so tightly wound in foil and taunting me with its warm glow that I had to indulge. A delicious black refried bean, beautiful white cheese and and freshly made flour tortillas that were the perfect amount gummy and sticky that if you eat this taco fast enough, you won't realize it's not a burrito. It held up better than some of the sloppiest burritos that came before, and I didn't taste a bad salsa in the bunch. Also the runny queso was a delight to the senses, none of that FUNDIDO around here 😭😭🥰🥰😮‍💨😮‍💨 I came too late for breakfast, so I ordered their mushroom 🍄‍🟫 taco which I would absolutely write home about, and I owe it to myself and everyone who recommended this place that I come back for the breakfast tacos 😮‍💨🥰 Where should I go next for a proper bean and cheese my friends?! LMK we're getting close to 150 and maybe that's when the list drops!!! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Just some nugs with the boys

The off menu RIBEYE 🥩 MELT from @Sababa Falafel Shop in Garden Grove, CA! Absolute smasher in the heart of Orange County, this sandwich is built on freshly baked Jerusalem bread, soft and pillowy on the outside, nice and toasty and lined with sesame seeds on the outside. Filled with well-seasoned prime ribeye, cheese and some special sauce 😮‍💨🤷 get the green and red (shatta) and go to town. Imma come back and order this with the ribeye fatteh for dunking. Stay tuned! Do yourself and try this, one of the tastiest sandwiches in Orange County right now 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 Also they're doing free falafels in like still...😭😮‍💨👇🏽👇🏽

One of my surprise favorite visits on my trip to Dallas was to @Doc B's Restaurant . The wait staff, kitchen staff, everyone was dialed. They had a ton of stuff on the menu, but @Food With Bros and I fixated and started with the Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap...one of those menu items that if done correctly, will indicate the rest of the food is gonna be great. And boy was it -- well-grilled and cinched tortilla, massive croutons, big juicy, crispy and well-seasoned chicken tender and of course a bacon-laden Caesar salad that hit all the right notes. 🎶 Side fries, dipper of ketchup (sue me) and a mixed lemonade / iced tea wash back 🥤 and you're in business. Wait till we show you the meatball here.... LMK where we should go next for a proper Caesar salad or Caesar salad wrap! Full list coming soon 😮‍💨😮‍💨🤤🤤🤤👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Saw @Foodbeast post about free queso at @Chipotle and someone asked if they had bean and cheese burritos...they do in fact. I've done one already, but this time we're trying their BLACK BEAN, CHEESE, SOUR CREAM and QUESO burrito. Thank you guys so much for always watching the videos, we got 10 more entries before we launch our first list BEAN AND CHEESE TOP LIST! Where else should I go next for a solid bean and cheese?! LMK and good luck fam ❤️❤️👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽😮‍💨😮‍💨🥰🥰👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

The Jew Boy Burgers "Magical Bean and Cheese Burrito" in Austin, TX. Hundreds of Austin-heads DM'd me telling me this is the bean and cheese burrito to try while I was in town, and it was a nice little bang-for-your-buck treat. For $5ish, you get a massive bean and cheese burrito, big, toasted and sealed tortilla filled with a schmaltz-refried bean, queso, shredded white cheddar and hatch green chile. Salsas were unique, I loved the green one, and the burgers were a nice touch. A worthy b&c addition to the list, very curious where it will land on The Top 100...where do you think it will? We're very close to having 150 burritos under our belt, the list will be mighty 💪🏽 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 where do I need to go next?! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

@Doc B's Restaurant pizza and Caesar 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨👌👌 if you tell em "Elie sent me" they'll have no idea what ur talking about 😭😭 but tell me who has the best Caesar salad and pizza in the game because I'm traveling for em now 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽🤞🤞😩🤗🤗😅😅

The Bean & Cheese Burrito from El Habanero in Tustin, CA 🔥🔥🔥 Salsa bar was the preamble to an exemplary bean and cheese. This place is tucked away next to one of my rotational sushi spots (Sushi Bear), and a rocks throw away from several other fantastic eateries, but I'd never tried El Habanero so fresh off my Las Vegas flight I had to throw it back. Incredible green salsa, tasty well mashed refried beans, good moisture on the white cheese and great par-melt on the entire thing. Tortilla was cool, and the burrito kept getting better once I started dunking it in the remnants of my chicken fajitas supreme order 😮‍💨😮‍💨🤌🤌 Also worth ordering was the chicken ranchera plate, and I can't imagine you can go wrong with the rest of the menu -- so I'll definitely be back for more. This burrito definitely in the Top 50...but where do you think it lands officially?! LMK!! 😮‍💨😮‍💨👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

The El Farolito Jr bean and cheese burrito for @@Marc Kharrat's bday in Anaheim, CA! A lot of folks recommended this, we got it to go as a catering order, so let me know if this what it looks like when you eat at the restaurant... Here it is, the gummiest tortilla of the entire journey, delicious and flavorful refried beans, the right amount of cheese and an incredible hold and structure. ALSO, Anthony and Lucy Kharrat love themselves some cinema 😭😭 This burrito makes it to the Top 100...but where do you think it will land?! We are so close to Day 150....plz lmk where to go next and what you rank this burrito on looks alone: 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
