“Our signature gold queso is such a staple to our menu, we are excited to build on that momentum with the introduction of our new queso blanco, which is also featured in some of the carnitas dishes.” “When developing the carnitas recipes, we really wanted to take this product launch over the top by introducing queso blanco,” says Reynders. The new queso blanco contains roasted jalapenos combined with white cheddar cheese and is the first queso launch since its iconic signature gold queso in 1995. Guests can try it alongside the brand’s well-known signature gold queso in their new Dueling Queso appetizer.

In addition to the carnitas entrees, Tijuana Flats is introducing a second queso option, queso blanco. Having pork as a Tex-Mex company felt like the right next step and we are confident this will become a guest favorite.” The three new carnitas entrees will be available for dine-in, takeout, and delivery beginning Monday, June 6. “Over the last six months, we have enhanced our menu by adding shrimp and Baja fish. “This year we are focusing on culinary innovation,” said Reynders. This will be the third new protein option added to the Tijuana Flats menu in 2022. The new entrees contain savory ingredients and received high praise from guests during testing.

The new carnitas dishes feature cranked up Tex-Mex flavors created in the Tijuana Flats test kitchen by Executive Chef Joel Reynders. The Tex-Mex-For-All brand is also expanding on their queso selection for the first time ever with new queso blanco.

The launch includes the release of three delicious new dishes featuring slow cooked carnitas-style pork. Tijuana Flats announced today the addition of carnitas as a new protein option to its menu.
