The limited-time item is marketed as a game-day option for football weekends, rivalry games, & watch parties.
Chipotle launched a "Brisket Fans Take Over the Kitchen" campaign featuring food creators Max Greb, Newton Nguyen, & Carl Schmidt.
The company highlighted a recommended game-day burrito bowl containing white rice, pinto beans, Smoked Brisket, salsas, cheese, & Queso Blanco.
