Summer means beautiful weather and fun-filled days outdoors, resulting in big appetites! Whether you spent the day soaking in the sun at the beach or shuttling the family around to various camps, Del Taco is here to help make dinner easy by driving through on your way home  and eating around the table. For a limited time, shredded pork carnitas are back at Del Taco! Tender, slow braised and full of flavor, carnitas products include Carnitas Taco al Carbon (MY FAVORITE – tastes just like street tacos!), Carnitas Combo Burrito and – new this summer – Carnitas Loaded Fries.

Shredded Pork Carnitas are slow-braised pork that has been simmered in small batch kettles as found in the cooking methods of a traditional Mexican kitchen. And, for the macho men (and women) in your family, the Macho Carnitas Burrito, Primo Carnitas Burrito and Carnitas Macho Nachos will be available off menu by guest request.
