2018 Number One Red and Green Sauce... Grande Burrito! #breakfasttacos

After a trip south to our favorite spot off Purgatory Road in New Braunfels, TX for breakfast tacos and the tastiest Red and Green Sauces, we discovered the convenience store changed the recipe... bummer.

Luckily, we have a backup which is now the Number One Red and Green Sauce for breakfast tacos! Stopped by last weekend and confirmed this one is the Winner of our quest.

The quest continues and we are always on the lookout for Red and Green Sauces that may bump Number One. However, as of this post, Grande Burrito's Red and Green Sauces is our choice for breakfast tacos.

The Quest Revisited - "Best Tasting Red Sauce and Green Sauce for Breakfast Tacos" #breakfasttacos

Several years ago we started a quest to find the "Best Tasting Red Sauce and Green Sauce for Breakfast Tacos". The quest was extended and eventually morphed to its current form... how does it compare to the Red Sauce and Green Sauce at the Sac-N-Pac in New Braunfels.

A recent trip to the area, left us bumming. It turned out the Sac-N-Pac is a Stripes Convenience Store, and they changed the recipe for the sauces. It's more a fresh and tasty salsa versus the spicy and slightly oily sauce that had us coming back for more.

That said, we are replacing the Sac-N-Pac's (aka Stripes) Red and Green Sauces with El Grande Burrito's Red and Green Sauces. Their sauces came closest to the old recipe Sac-N-Pac offered customers.
