So tell me about the Jack in the Box tacos...?

Question

are they any good? I've never tried them and I don't know what they contain but are they any good tasting? and what do they have? cheese? what else?

Also wondering, do the pitas count for a taco? I mean, instead of getting the tacos for tomorrows special, can I get the pitas?

thanks!

Answer 1

the tacos are ok since they are only 50 cents a piece and no you can't get a pita it's almost $4 on free taco day...

Answer 2

well they are good! Meat is pre-mixed with seasons in it they add cheese, lettuce And if want tomatoes ask for super tacos.

Answer 3

Tell you about them???? They are quite possibly the most PERFECT taco in the world as far as fast food goes...they are mimicked by tons of others...but none are ever as good. They are deep fried deliciousness! Ground taco meat...slice of american cheese...lettuce & hot sauce...OMG!!!! Pitas are NOT tacos...pitas are pitas...tortillas are tortillas...you don't want a taco pita! PUUULLLEEEZE!!!!! Enjoy the tacos for what they are...greasy goodness! They not only are good tasting...they are the ultimate in fast food tacos.

Answer 4

I don't eat them. Since, I do not eat beef. But I do know how they are made, and what makes them different from other fast food tacos.

First of all the filling is not all beef. It's actually a combination of beef and pinto beans. Also the whole thing is deep fried. Then you pry it open to insert half a slice of American cheese, shredded lettuce and taco sauce. You can easily cook up a batch for yourself.

1 pound ground beef (twice ground is best to mimic the texture of Jack's tacos)

½ cup refried pinto beans

¼ teaspoon salt

2 Tablespoons chili powder

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

12 corn tortillas

4 cups vegetable oil ( but melted solid vegetable shortening such as Crisco will give you results closest in taste to Jack's)

6 slices American cheese, halved on the diagonal

2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

¾ cup taco sauce (Ortega will give a taste closest to Jack's)

In a skillet, brown the beef, drain the fat, and add the chili powder, salt, pepper 2 tablespoons of the taco sauce and the beans. Mix well and remove from heat.

In another skillet, heat the oil, while this is heating... Spread about 2 tablespoons of the beef/bean mixture on each tortilla and lightly press it together. Fry on both sides until crispy. drain on paper.  Gently pry each taco open, and add half a slice of cheese, lettuce and taco sauce.

Tomorrow Jack In the Box will be giving away 2 tacos to anybody bringing in a receipt for a gasoline purchase they made. But at other times... You can cook up a batch of your own if you don't feel like driving over to Jack's.

Answer 5

Those tacos are miserable tasting just like their pitas. No, I don't think you can get a pita instead. This is a free promotional thing. It doesn't work that way. Just be glad you're getting their nasty tacos for free. lol

Answer 6

they taste like school lunch tacos, why do you think they sell them 2 for $1.00

Answer 7

They are debomb. I love to eat them. They have good shredded beef and regular gronded meat like at tacobell. You can get what evey you want on it. Tommorow they are free so go and try it. why pay for something you dont' like when it free. They say the best things in life are free and jacks tacos is one of them. Hey I hope you like them.

Answer 8
