Snickerito
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Wednesday is a good day at the office. Usually we have 5 or more guys go to Buckhead Burrito Grill for lunch. Wednesday lunch at BBG has been a tradition for longer than most of us have been employed here. The only thing (we thought) that could make it better would be if it was a company sponsored outing.
Today our lives changed.
What’s that new item on the menu? “Snickerito” - what’s that?
The Snickerito starts with, as you might suspect, a Snickers bar. They wrap it in a tortilla and deep fry it. Amen. Then they top it with whipped cream. Wow!
It is my speculation that everything is better fried. Chicken, okra, potatoes, bananas, tomatoes, cheesecake, turkey, ice cream, burritos (chimichangas), cheese (on a stick…like from the Corn Dog place). They’re all better fried than they are when served another way. Add Snickers bars to the list.
Buckhead Burrito Grill is located at 3940 Cherokee Street in Kennesaw (next to Johnny’s Pizza, but seriously, why would you ever eat there?). They recently moved from another location on Cherokee Street, so don’t get lost. And if you’re going, let me know so I can meet you there.
What unusual fried goodness have you had?

All this drool is gonna ruin my keyboard.
Jeff H @ 4:23 pm:
I wonder why it’s called the Buckhead Burrito Grill when it’s in Kennesaw….. not Buckhead?
I’ll have to check it out, based on the address, it can’t be very far from our house.
Ron Davis @ 4:29 pm:
If you come up I-75 to Wade Green and go left, it’s not far before you’ll get to BBG (on the left). Wade Green becomes Cherokee right in there.
Also, there’s a story behind why they call it “Buckhead” but I haven’t heard the official version. Maybe I’ll ask next week.
We’ll be there Wednesday around noon, if you care to join.

Deep fried snickers. WOW. I think I am somewhat grossed out. how does the chocolate fry without melting?
Ron Davis @ 2:22 pm:
The chocolate does melt…it’s wrapped (sealed) inside the tortilla, so the whole Snickers bar just turns to this awesome melted goo.

Uhhh…yeah, so, I really need to find this place. Maybe you should tell your wife we are moving coffee night…just for one week.

I work at BBG andd the chocolate does melt but it’s wrapped in the tortilla so it stays in it until you start eating it!!
