Del Taco has announced the release of its new Shredded Beef Birria featuring three items made with savory braised beef and custom consomé for dipping, including the first-ever Birria Ramen available at a major quick-service brand which simultaneously makes it the largest ramen restaurant chain in the country. Starting November 9, Del Taco guests can order the NEW Two Shredded Beef Birria Tacos with consomé dip, Shredded Beef Birria Quesadilla with consomé dip, and Shredded Beef Birria Ramen for a limited time at locations nationwide. The shredded beef is braised for 2 1/2 hours and seasoned with traditional spices and chile peppers.

“As part of our Del Taco Better Mex brand promise we wanted to serve this unique Mexican street food experience to our guests with truly authentic flavors in our new Shredded Beef Birria and consomé,” says Tim Hackbardt, Del Taco’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Our Shredded Beef Birria tacos and quesadilla deliver the classic experience of dipping them into the savory consomé before eating while the ramen provides a unique flavor explosion of hot consomé filled with wavy noodles and authentic birria in a cup. With this introduction, we will not only be the first major quick-service restaurant chain to offer ramen, overnight we will become the largest restaurant chain in the country to serve ramen.
