For some reason I have never gotten over to Big Ten Burrito in Ann Arbor. If I had to guess what that reason was it would probably have something to do with my laziness but that is usually trumped by my hunger for good food, specifically gigantic burritos. Yesterday, I finally decided to make the trip and conquer their giant burrito. I have to say, I was not disappointed.
This burrito was filled guacamole, sour cream, rice, pinto beans, grilled chicken and cheese wrapped inside a 2 tortilla sleeping bag. I have to say, it was extremely delicious. The ingredients were well portioned, and no one ingredient dominated. It wasn’t like a Qdoba or Chipolte burrito where half of the burrito is rice. In addition, their hot sauces were very good. The regular sauce is a green sauce that has very good heat, while the Diablo is a legitimate hot sauce. Be careful with that stuff. They do give you a regular chunky salsa with cilantro, if heat is not your thing.
Even better, at BTB Cantina, they serve alcohol. Very cheap alcohol. I got to wash down this monster with frozen margaritas that only cost me 2 bucks a piece. We hung out well after we were done with burritos and watched rugby on their flat screen TV. Well done, BTB Cantina. Well done.
Oh, and just so you think I’m even cooler than you already do, I finished half of my girlfriend’s regular sized burrito as well. Actually, I believe that just makes me fat.
This mofo weighs like 2 pounds

Looks awesome…Did you pass out for a few hours afterwards? Chipotle does that to me…carb coma.
yess! btb is the best!
No immediate passing out. Went and had a beer at a local watering hole, watched some Seinfield then passed out.
Sounds like the makings of a fine afternoon indeed!
I’m a huge sauce whore and I bet I would love the Diablo salsa. Do they have a salsa bar….I’ve gotta have my 10 little plastic cups o’ salsas.
The Diablo salsa was delicious for anyone who likes it extra spicy. Habanero base for sure. There’s no salsa bar but you can ask and they give you little cups of salsa. Very nice place.
I am starving and this is not helping me. Ever since my wife was pregnant, she does not like Mexican food (of course my favorite) and now that we have had the baby, I am hoping this will change asap. If not, I might have to meet you in Ann Arbor for this BTB. Btw, Any place that rolls the tinfoil around a burrito like that (really tight and crimped at the end) is usually a good sign. Standard taco truck roll. I mean shit, this place almost looks at good as Tia’s
BTBs the shit
Gosh bet you didn’t eat for like 3 days after that!
Hmmmm, kinda like eating two chipotle burritos at once. *memories*
You unwrap the burrito entirely before eating it? What is this amateur hour? This is burrito eating 101 – peel the foil/parchment as you go. Anyway… Great site. I am moving to the Ann Arbor area in January for my wife’s job. I’ll use your site as a great reference point of where to eat. Any other sites/blogs that you can recommend to get to know the dinning scene in the area? I’d appreciate it.

Come on man, amateur hour is not something we practice here at Epic Portions. I unwrapped it so I could take a beautiful picture of it. Not familiar with too many blogs in the area. Check out my blog roll for a couple.
