CHIPOTLE fans are in for a treat, as the Mexican restaurant has brought back a fan favourite, following overwhelming demand.
Carne Asada, the popular chain’s “most tender cuts of steak”, was first introduced back in 2019, and has since returned to the menu four times.

The delicious protein is hand-cut and seasoned with garlic, cumin and coriander.
The product made its welcome return on September 4, a year after being named Chipotle’s most searched limited time offer on Google.
It was also the second most searched limited time offer out of all US restaurant brands.
“Our Carne Asada is an elevated, chef-driven recipe that attracts new guests, reignites our Chipotle Rewards members and excites our restaurant teams,” said Chris Brandt, president and chief brand officer.
The succulent meat can be purchased as a burrito bowl, a burrito, or a quesadilla.
Chipotle added that its steak is held to the “highest standards”, with no antibiotics of added hormones.
The restaurant chain said: “Chipotle’s tender Carne Asada is expertly grilled throughout the day, expertly seasoned with garlic, cumin and coriander, finished with fresh lime and hand-cut cilantro, and hand-cut before serving.
“Nobody does Carne Asada like Chipotle.”
Steak fans are delighted at the product’s return, and have taken to social media to share their joy.
“Brb going to Chipotle”, one person said.
“Yessss, finally”, another person added.
“Only been waiting two years for this.
“Eating a bowl right now,”, a third person added.
This comes after Chipotle made a major change to it’s delivery service.

The beloved chain has confirmed it is going ahead with its partnership with Zipline – the world’s largest autonomous delivery system.
Through the new Zipotle service, deliveries will be made through automated drones which will fly to customers’ homes.
The fleet of small, zero-emissions aircraft – known as Zips – are whisper-quiet and work in tandem with larger drone devices.
They use cameras, sensors and Nvidia chips to avoid obstacles whilst in flight, making deliveries a breeze.
Capable of travelling 24 miles and lifting 8 pounds, the electronic drones can deliver up to seven times faster than cars stuck in traffic.
