Freebirds World Burrito is turning up the flavor in 2025 with its most exciting menu launch yet, headlined by the all-new Frito Pie Burrito. This bold and crave-worthy creation takes center stage as Freebirds reintroduces its legendary Texas Ground Beef protein, back by popular demand and reimagined for today’s flavor seekers.
