Taco Bell is Testing New Grilled Cheese Dipping Tacos

Is Taco Bell going the birria route? The brand’s two new tacos are similar enough to the popular dish to warrant the speculation.

Taco Bell is testing two new Grilled Cheese Dipping Tacos, with one featuring Seasoned Beef and the other offering Shredded Beef. Both varieties start with a freshly-fried white corn tortilla shell that’s packed with melted cheddar, mozzarella and pepper jack cheeses on the inside and grilled on the outside. They also come with your choice of a classic, savory red sauce or nacho cheese sauce for dipping.

The grilled cheeses on the outside of the taco are definitely giving quesataco, the made-for-dipping sauces really lean towards the tacos dunked in savory consomé and the slow-braised Shredded Beef simmered in what Taco Bell simply refers to as a “flavorful sauce” is heavy on the birria vibes.
