Most of the time when you order this it is a white queso with some chorrizo, pico, and other veggies in a deep dish. Here, it was kind of that, but it came on a cast iron plate with a good mound of pico, chorrizo, and veggies on it, but the shallow plate toasted the cheese and kept everything hot. The flour tortillas were good. Be sure to scrape the toasted cheese off the bottom of the pan. My wife had the #9 combo. It had a flauta, chili relleno, and a quesadilla with shredded beef. The flauta was, of course, fried, but the chicken was overdone, bordering on burned. The chile relleno was not a poblano pepper stuffed with cheese, dipped in batter and fried, which she expected having grown up in El Paso, but looked to be a green bell pepper covered in cheese. I had the steak burrito supreme. (Normally, when I think "Burrito Supreme" I think of Taco Bell, and this was much better, of course.) The sauce was very good and the charro beans were good as well. Pam had a strawberry daiquiri, and I had a margarita. Both were very tasty and a good strength. It was our first time there. We'll be back to try some of the other offerings, but we'll almost certainly get the queso.

I'm exhausted but afraid to go to sleep because I may not wake up. I plan to never sleep again. Please call me and make sure I'm okay. Don't go to Dickee McGee's. Ever.

The burrito itself had good flavor, the steak seemed fresh. The cheddar jalapeno tortilla was a nice touch. But the issue here is that it was a bit lukewarm and was obvious by the lack of melted cheese inside and gooey shell texture that it hadn't been toasted. The queso also had no kick at all to it and wasn't quite what I was expecting. I wouldn't order this again. The quesadilla was very delicious, no complaints here. Meat was well seasoned. I did order a side of southwest ranch that I didn't receive but they may have put it inside the quesadilla because it really seemed like the overall flavor and spice was kicked up a notch, which was nice. I would order this again. Overall I'd go back, just would stay away from the smothered burrito.
