EAT This Week: Audible’s Cowboy Breakfast Burrito
To try and decide each week where and what to eat around the basin can be a challenge – there are so many amazing choices. In this feature we’ll dive into dishes that will surely satisfy those hunger pangs and leave you wondering where to go next.
If you’re one who loves to hit the early NFL games over the weekend (or just love breakfast in general) then this week’s feature is a touchdown waiting to happen. As part of Audible’s new Friday through Sunday breakfast menu, they are taking their signature approach to the menu and putting a little early morning spin on it.
Their Cowboy breakfast burrito (aka the Stone Cold Stunner) is one of eight new offerings and it all starts with a base of five (FIVE!) scrambled eggs. They are rolled up in an extra-large flour tortilla along with tater tots, ground sausage, red peppers, grilled onions and is served “wet” with a sausage gravy and garnished with green onions.
If you couldn’t guess, this burrito is massive. I was told I wouldn’t be able to eat the whole thing going in and about a quarter of the way through, I realized that was going to be 100% accurate.
If you’re a fan of biscuits and gravy, then you’re going to love this – it’s very much in the same family but more of a cousin with a bigger personality. There is no shortage of stuffing, either. The slight saltiness of the sausage along with the sweetness from the veggies combined with the textures of the tots, peppers and onions you’re getting everything you could ask for in brekkie burrito. And we haven’t even talked about the gravy, which you could easily bury me in when it comes time.
In addition to the menu burritos, patrons can also build their own make their own version of a “wet” burrito with either salsa or hollandaise sauce. With a grandma who came from the south, I’m partial to the gravy, but even grandma would have like this dish.
Audible’s Sports Bar & Gaming is located at 290 Kingsbury Grade Rd #1 in Stateline. For menu items and general information visit them online at audiblestahoe.com or reach them by phone at 775-781-1547.
