Torchy’s Tacos Secret Menu
1. The Matador
The Matador, which is served on a flour tortilla that is lined with a crispy corn tortilla, is a chopped brisket taco with grilled jalapeños, pickled onions, grated jack cheese, sour cream, avocado, and is topped with tomatillo sauce. This brisket taco has the perfect mix of spice, tang, and coolness from the pickled onions, tomatillo sauce, avocado, and sour cream.
2. Trailer Park Hillbilly Style
This spin on the Trailer Park taco from the main menu at Torchy’s includes the signature flour tortilla with fried chicken and is topped with lettuce, green chiles, pico de gallo, cheddar jack cheese, and poblano sauce – When ordered “hillbilly style,” your taco will have green chile queso instead of lettuce, and also have chorizo and chopped bacon, in true Texas fashion.
3. Mad Cow
This secret menu item lives up to its name, as it comes in a flour tortilla, and is filled with marinated beef fajita, grilled corn, black beans, all topped generously with cilantro, jack cheese, and chipotle sauce.

4. Green Chile Pork Missionary Style
This tasty take on the Green Chile Pork taco still contains the corn tortilla, but it’s crispy and wrapped in a flour tortilla. Pork carnitas, which has been slow-roasted and simmered with green chiles, is topped with guacamole, pickled onions, cilantro, chipotle sauce, and of course jack cheese. This version replaces its onions, tomatillo sauce, and cotija cheese with pickled onions, chipotle sauce, and jack cheese.
