Available for a limited time, Qdoba’s Smoked Brisket gets its bold flavor from being slow-smoked over real wood for four hours. The new Smoked Brisket can be enjoyed on any of Qdoba’s favorite menu items, including burritos, burrito bowls, quesadillas, nachos, salads, and the new Outlaw Knockout Taco.

The Outlaw featuring Smoked Brisket is the newest addition to Qdoba’s line of Knockout Tacos®. The Outlaw is loaded with tender Smoked Brisket, bold Ancho Chile BBQ sauce, zesty habanero salsa, and corn salsa, all topped with fresh cilantro and Cotija cheese, and served on a warm corn tortilla.

“With the introduction of Smoked Brisket, we’re bringing even more versatility and flavorful options to our menu,” said Keith Guilbault, President of Qdoba Mexican Eats. “Smoked Brisket and the new Outlaw Knockout Taco symbolize what Qdoba is all about – bold, differentiated combinations of ingredients that deliver adventurous flavors our guests crave.”

In addition to Qdoba’s new smoky offerings, guests can enjoy all their other favorite menu items, like the six original Knockout Tacos, packed with mouth-watering flavors that ignite your taste buds, as well as customizable burritos, bowls and tacos.
