Chipotle Will Now Cook Steak Using Gourmet French Technique
March 22, 2016 | 1 min to read
Another change is coming to Chipotle: how the company cooks its steaks. A Chipotle spokesperson told ABC News the company is beginning to prepare the steak used in its burritos, bowls and tacos using a French culinary technique to help prevent future pathogen outbreaks at its restaurants.
Chris Arnold, a spokesman for Chipotle, said the steak will be cooked "sous vide" at an off-site central kitchen and then marinated and seared on grills in the restaurants.
"Sous vide is a cooking technique that cooks at low temperatures over longer periods of time, and is used by a number of great chefs. If there is any difference to customers, it would be that the steak may be more tender than it was before," Arnold said.
