One of the most interesting thing about watching your channel is seeing restaurants with a drive thru that I have never seen have one. I've never seen a chipotle drive thru lol
It's kind of dumb but they call it a "Chipotlane" and it's essentially a pickup window. You have to order on the app to get it from there, no actual drive-through with like a speaker and a menu.
Hi Joe, as a chipotle worker I can tell you that when ordering online we are told by management to short out on the food unless specifically requested for by saying "extra" or "light". And as far as the temperature goes, the only thing that is hot is the rice beans and meat. And as well as to Chipotle standards we are told to give 4oz of meat and however much of any other item as requested by the customer. And the management as well as how Chipotle has monitored their quality and improvement is growing smaller and smaller. The brisket is cooked on the grill for a total of 4 minutes im pretty sure (2 minutes on each side), im not a grill so I cant give you a more specific answer. And the meat tends to get cold quickly. While ordering in person and not online customers are guaranteed fresher food and overall better quality food. We as crew members get scolded for meat portions and as well as for not making online orders fast enough. Given all of that, I hope you have a better idea of why things were the way they were. I. love your channel and all of your reviews, you're second to none.
that is very unfortunate, with that sort of management it will fail over time. They do not make the money from margins in that sort of thing it is with volume. they are cutting their own noses off.
Former Chipotle employee and burrito roller here! I always go for the bowl rather than the burrito because rolling burritos with more than four ingredients in them can get challenging (you can fit a lot more in a bowl and it's less messy). At least most of the ingredients in yours were solid and not very juicy (aside from the tomato salsa and sour cream), the "wet" burritos are definitely the worst. When I ordered a brisket bowl in my area a few days ago, the meat was perfectly tender and hot, and while I didn't weigh it, I think I got more than you did! But as far as To Go is concerned, I always consider going for steak (brisket included) a risk because it could be dry by the time you get there, if they've hit the bottom of the last batch from the grill or it's been sitting for a while. Especially if they didn't give you that much, my guess is the line / to go employee(s) were running low on it and / or waiting for the grill worker to give them more. If you had only ordered one or two burritos, you probably would've gotten a heartier meat portion in them. I know that's not your style though and no excuse!
Wow I'm surprised it was even the score that it was. At those temperatures it is BORDERLINE safe to eat. Especially at the price paid these is outrageous. Not even 10% meat for 12 dollars????!!!! Joe is a real trooper for trying these for us.
0:26 did you do that edit in sync with the music? It sure looks like it! Also, I used to work at chipotle in 2017-2018, back when chipotle used to be so good! But the recent fall off that has been happening with the company is insane! Which is why I haven’t eaten there in almost 2 years! Also, I always tried to be fair with the meat portions when I would serve the customers, but I would get yelled at by management a if I wasn’t giving them smaller portions.
Thanks for the great review Joe... I often consider buying one of their burritos but at $16 for their smoked brisket burrito I was hesitant. Now that I know there's only 1 ounce of meat I will pass. Thanks for saving me some money… I will pass it onto you.
not surprised by the virtually meatless burrito. almost every bite was a mouth full of bland rice and the last time I ordered from them they actually sold me burnt quesadillas! the couple of times I've eaten Chipotles were very disappointing which is why i don't eat there. love the interesting comprehensive review! thanks!
Chipotle is good, when you are there in-person and getting the burrito bowl option. I don't do the app anymore because I have gotten the food cold or portions were way less than normal.
Hey Joe, I've been absent lately because I recently ate Bojangle's BBQ Pulled Pork recently and I got a nasty stomachache from it. Doctor said it's fine if I drink some probiotics, but damn... Bojangles really did me numbers here.
Nice PSA about the amount of meat. The temperature was scary for me. Like you said, it should be 140° or higher. Both for food safety and enjoyment of the food. Rice should not be cold. Corn maybe. Salsa sure. But not rice.
my man joe im genuinely just curious: i think they wanted to show what might be in the burrito with the picture but i wouldnt think it was gonna look like that since it is a burrito which will be closed. do you want them to put a cross section instead or something? what would you have in mind for it to be more accurate? much love as always
I would expect them to at least fold it like a burrito rather than the ig blob I got, dont expect them too cut.. it is industry standard to have the ad photos not looking like what you actually get
chipotle definitely suffers from online ordering. i ended up deleting the app because i would get worse portions than ordering in person. might be worth a retry with ordering in person?
Another top notch video Joe. One thing, the burrito sliced open honestly looked better than the ad photos Joe, have some sympathy lol sounds like you got a dud, sorry you had to eat that
This is one of the rare times I've had this before your review. I got the brisket quesadilla, and it did taste good. But the meat quantity was lacking even by Chipotle standards. I usually get a quesadilla the rare times I go because they refuse to allow pressing of the burritos, which always leads to a so-so experience with warm or lukewarm meat and cold toppings. But they overcharge for the quesadilla and you can only order it via the app. So no matter what, Chipotle will find a way to annoy the crap out of you.
I had this exact same experience. On the rare occasion I do get Chipotle I end up going for the quesadilla, for the same reasons you stated (despite preferring burritos) and it felt..very very skimpy for the price, despite the taste not being bad.
You gotta get double meat on anything at chipotle but that takes it out of affordable territory. I usually get a bowl and it really depends on who has the scoop when I go in there
While I can't disagree with your preferences, hard to keep a very high temp with a big glob of cold sour cream as you mentioned. That said, I can't imagine any of those ingredients being at 140 to start sitting out in the open as they do
Those temperatures are trash. Chipotle sucks on all fronts. How do you wait 9 mins when you ordered ahead and the burritos are cold? I hope you didn't get sick from eating them.
Joe, I love your reviews, however, I believe this was not entirely fair. Chipotle’s ingredients are mainly cold besides meat and beans. I think the temperature test was doomed from the start. Also the weight test is practically determined by you, since you decide what you want on it. You can judge the Brisket taste, however, you can’t judge the temperature of some of the ingredients. I hope you view this as constructive criticism. Have a great day!
point taken but the temp was outside the safe zone no matter how you looked at it, and also the reason I picked the recommended configuration straight off the website as far as what goes in it. plus they obviously grossly shorted me on the meat.
The downfall of Chipotle has been an interesting experiment in hubris. The chain that was once regarded as the highest quality/quantity for their product has now become and overpriced parody of itself.
Chipotle tastes great and is a very comfortable restaurant for me, but one of the worst things about it, which you might not be aware of, Joe, is that online orders are purposely made worse. They will skimp you out of every penny you have if you don't order in store, sometimes there are such bad disparities that an online order will genuinely be HALF the weight of an in-store order. You didn't address that in this video, and if you had went inside to order, the final score might have been 2 or 3 full points higher, which would not have been deserved for Chipotle in my opinion
Hey Joe, I can second this as I've had a similar experience with chipotle. Mu h love on the video and respect the score, but next chipotle video give it a chance by ordering inside. Might change your mind and score up on the joe meter scale :)

my point exactly. if it was suppose to be a cold dish it should be below 40 and if hot should be above 140. I did not eat the leftovers. thanks
Joe this is your side profession - you know by now you need to go in store to get a proper chipotle meal. I demand a recount.
there is no excuse for what happened. why should I go out of me way to try to make them look better

Have you ever considered adding a "price per 100 calories" to your reviews? Should give you an idea of how densely packed the food is.
Not a bad idea
Those three burritos probably cost him $146
more like 62 and change but a lot for something that went in the trash after the video

You're getting soft, Joe! With temps like that? Come on man! That slope needs some lubrication.
must be
Joes right these things hardly have meat nowadays and are cold even from the line. Chipotle sucks
unfortunately at this point in time I have to agree
Was thinking about getting this but after watching how chipotle treated Joe here I don’t think they have earned my money
sosad and they are not cheap to boot
Ive never had hot food at chipotle
I can see why
If you want a good burrito try Burger King's "Eggnormus Burrito" for breakfast they are my favorite!
interesting for sure
Joe’s most expensive review yet!
its right up there
Chipotle is a lottery sometimes, it all entirely depends who is making your food.
that is unfortunate
I can definitely see why it failed the temperature test.
trashed it for sure
you honestly expected it to come how it looked wrapped in the pic with the open face? oh boy xD
no not at all, but at least they could have rolled it the same way so it did not look like a lump.

Chipotle tastes great and is a very comfortable restaurant for me, but one of the worst things about it, which you might not be aware of, Joe, is that online orders are purposely made worse.

its a mix, the first half is mostly scripted and after the drive through shot till the end is not..

aint no way 4.8 i love you joe but you gotta stop being so nice
