the phenomenal rise of the Chipotle restaurant concept, hot spices can make people all over
the world go crazy. Creative minds just keep coming up with various hacks to get more from
all the good stuff that people are getting at the esteemed restaurant. Here's a choice
pick of the top ten Chipotle hacks that will make the food even better. When in Chipotle,
do as the hackers do. And you can blame it all on the love for spice.
Fill Your Chipotle Order Before Asking For an Increase
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you need to play magician with your Chipotle server. That is,
let the crew member fill your plate first before you ask for more of this or that. These
days, you have to think like the card player on the street in order to get the most from
everything, especially Chipotle. You're paying the price for the item you order, so why not?
You're entitled to a full serving, just like when you go to Subway and ask for everything
to be loaded in your favorite sandwich. There's a psychology behind the load-before-you-ask
principle. The fact is, that you have no idea how much food your server is going to load
onto your plate, wrap or styrofoam. Every server is different, even if you assume that
every Chipotle franchise trains its crew in the same way. And besides, there are times
when Chipotle employees may feel generous or stingy. So you can avoid the trap by letting
them fill your order first before you ask them for an increase.
Playing a Hat Trick on the Chipotle Mexican Grill Crew

goes, you give a man fish and you feed him for a day. But if you teach a man to fish
you feed him for life. So think like a child. Unleash your inner youth by ordering a kid's

you like. When you're vegetarian, the landscape changes, and you can stuff the taco kit with
all the green goodness that Chipotle can offer. Think guacamole, kale, black beans, pinto
beans, fajita veggies, sofritas, etc. Meatatarian? You got carnitas, chicken, chorizo, Barbacoa,
etc., on your side. Need we say more? When it comes to your taco imagination, the sky's
the limit. If a Rubik's cube is your playground, you can do so much more. When you think outside
the box, chances, are you can be the author of the next Chipotle Mexican Grill hack list.

Six-Step Strategy to Get More Burrito
Think like a magician and get the most amount of food possible without draining your teenage
allowance or maxing out your student loan. Just remember all these six steps and you'll
be the Chipotle hack wizard in no time. This is another internet Chipotle hack that will
get you way more out of that Burrito without dishing out the extra cash. First, ask for
a burrito bowl with a tortilla side order. You’ll get more ingredients in the bowl.
Then get the Chipotle server into the double wrapping mode by asking for two tortillas.
The only downside is you will have to assemble the burrito yourself. When your server asks
what kind of rice, order both. You will end up with almost double the rice at no extra
charge. You’ll also want to ask for both types of beans for the same reason. The next
step would be to ask to half/half the meats. Again, you’ll end up with more meat then
if you just asked for the chicken of the steak solo. The final tip is to ask for fajita veggies
and corn salsa. This is not always mentioned by the Chipotle staff but these delicious
extras are always free to add if you just ask. Now all that’s left is the daunting
task of putting everything together. However, it should be worth it as your typical burrito
should now be Hulkified. No wizardry needed for this Chipotle hack. Just another page
taken from the Chipotle School of Magic. All you have to do is persevere and pretty soon,
your wallet will thank you for it. There's no reason to starve yourself by abstaining
from going to Chipotle Mexican Grill. All you need to do is think outside the box.
Health Is Wealth at Chipotle
What's healthy from Chipotle? Actually a lot more than you might have thought. Vegetarians
and even vegans are also very welcome at Chipotle Mexican Grill. For one, sofritas
are delicious tofu masquerading as meat fajitas. Ask the Chipotle crew for vegan options if
you're a die-hard no-animal products or byproducts crusader. Chipotle makes going meatless so
easy with meat-free dishes, according to a Chipotle Mexican Grill insider. A burrito
bowl with sofritas, black beans, lettuce, brown rice, tomato salsa, cheese, and sour
cream clocks in at 650 calories and a solid 23 grams of plant-based protein. For a vegan
meal just avoid any cheese or sour cream based sauces on your food. Get Chipotle's maximum
dose of veggies by adding them to your steak, chicken or carnitas bowl. It's free, after
all. And the same goes for the dressing as well. So don't forget to ask for Chipotle's
“nasty but a goodie” vinaigrette dressing to fire up that burrito bowl. That is if
you're really a spicy fanatic.
You Can Get Free Tortillas at Chipotle
Yes, extra taco shells or tortillas are within your reach. All you have to do is order a
burrito bowl and you're sure to get three taco shells or one flour tortilla shell
for free. When you know your rights, the Chipotle crew will have no choice but to support
you. The key is to look and sound confident when you present yourself at your favorite
Chipotle Mexican Grill outlet. You can get lucky if the Chipotle crew are smart enough
to figure out that you've been around long enough to be considered an honest to goodness
Tex-Mex fan. Sometimes, though, the crew can be so preoccupied or so new at the job that
they may end up brushing you aside as a first-time customer. When this happens, learn how to
stand your ground by sounding very knowledgeable about the menu. You don't have to stomp your
feet like a raging bull, but it pays to look like a true-blue Chipotle wizard.
Supersize Everything with Sides
Remember, if you order a burrito bowl without meat, you're actually short-changing yourself,
unless of course, you're vegetarian or vegan. Supersizing everything on your plate is the
magic key to getting all you can. Supersize this, supersize that. Yes, that's the name
of the game. The McDonald's Supersize era is long gone, but the tradition is alive and
well at the world's favorite hot and spicy destination. The key to this hack is to order
what you want in your Burrito Bowl as sides. This way you will get the exact ingredients
you want and you will get more of these ingredients because they will be measured out individually.
Just make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice to the Chipotle server nearest you.
In other words, try your best not to sound too excited. Sounding matter of factly is
key to mastering the supersize strategy. Go ahead and practice in the restaurant's comfort
room before you try the technique for the first time. Practice makes perfect.
Are You a Meatatarian? Get Even with Chipotle
From a pure meatatarian point of view, you never, never ever go to Chipotle Mexican Grill
to pig out on salad. Salad bars are by far, the best candidates if you’re looking to
fill up on veggies. While there's a lot of sofritas, greens, and beans on the menu, a
serious meat lover is looking at minimizing carbs and vegetables in their order. It's
full steam ahead with all the meats that Chipotle has to offer. You really have to take advantage
to get your money's worth. So when ordering your meats in the bowl, be sure to show your
full enthusiasm to the Chipotle server by looking intently at the meat you're being
served. There's no need to drool. Just look at the meats in the counter and say in a very
sweet voice that you love meats. And while you're at it, tell yourself that the server
at hand will fill your bowl with more meats than expected. Do this three times and let
the power of hypnosis up the ante on behalf of your monstrous meatatarian appetite. If
Star Wars Jedis can do it, you can, too! From start to finish, visualizing in your mind
how your Chipotle Mexican Grill visit will start and end is a powerful tool to getting
all you want from the restaurant.
Get All the Freebies at Chipotle Mexican Grill
This is the one hack that newbies at Chipotle Mexican Grill always seem to miss. For example,
sides of cheese and flour tortillas are always on the house, something that true Chipotle
devotees would not need to be reminded of. And you know what else is free? Hard taco
shells on the side! So if you love nacho chips, you can definitely get them for free any time
you visit the Tex-Mex watering hole by breaking up some of those free taco shells. As the
saying goes, the best things in life are free and you can take that all the way to the nearest
Chipotle eating establishment. Always remember to never say no to any of the food items that
Chipotle Mexican Grill gives away for free. Since you never know just when the next price
increase will be, you need to get your bang per buck. You owe it to yourself and your
student budget. Chipotle freebies are definitely a way to stretch that budget and possibly
the stomach at the same time. Just saying.
KISS: Keep It Simple, Stupid
Former US President Barack Obama's timeless governing principle lives on in every sumptuous
meal order at Chipotle. Yes, if you put your mind to it and your common sense of course,
you can never go wrong. Savings ahoy! Just imagine. On a busy day, statistically speaking,
the average Chipotle crew tends to miss charging for guacamole. As you probably know even
from the Subway point of view, guacs are expensive. They're not only really tasty but they contain
more potassium than bananas or potatoes. And of course, since guacs are essentially avocado
loaded with chopped onions, tomatoes, chili peppers, and the seasoning that has defined
the Aztec civilization - the antioxidation quotient of the green stuff is definitely
multiplied exponentially. Immune system to the max! And even better when you get the
guacamole free of charge on your next food trip to Chipotle Mexican Grill. Don't feel
guilty! After all, the restaurant probably made you wait in a long line on your 30-minute
lunch break. Still feeling vengeful? Don't forget to ask the server to shake your burrito
up a bit. It's extra work for the employee and they may secretly hate doing it but the
ingredients will be spread out a little more evenly for a more consistent taste from bite
to bite. Here's one other thing. Do you know that if you order your Chipotle burrito simple,
that is, with only two or three ingredients, you can shave a few bucks? Spin a win! The
world is a better place when you keep it simple, indeed.
Extreme Couponing at Planet Chipotle
To begin with, you get a free burrito with your purchase of a Chipotle gift card. Don't
forget that! And it gets better. When you only have three bucks to spare for that student
lunch, it’s Chipotle to the rescue! It only costs $2.18 to order a Chipotle bean and cheese
burrito from the world's beloved Mexican fast food outlet. Let's hope and pray that the
company never thinks of a price increase on this item, and you'll still have 82 cents
left over to put towards your next meal. It doesn't get any better than that. And here's
one more tip to getting the most out of your Chipotle purchase. When ordering meats like
chicken, steak or pork fajitas, be sure to order two instead of one type of meat. Because
you know what? You'll end up with more meats on your plate or bowl, than if you were to
stick to the one meat philosophy. It's just the way the Chipotle crew rolls. So use it
to your advantage. As the old saying goes, the sum of its parts is always greater than
the whole. So if you order just chicken, steak or pork at Chipotle Mexican Grill, you lose.
You mix it up, you win. And you can take that all the way to the bank.
