After a successful test run last year, Taco Bell is set to take its new Steak Reaper Ranch Fries Supreme nationwide.
Taco Bell's new Steak Reaper Ranch Fries Supreme is essentially a spicy take on the chain's beloved Nacho Fries. As Taco Bell explains on its website, making the new dish involved hunting for the hottest pepper available, before landing on the Carolina Reaper Pepper. Taco Bell then "mixed the Carolina Reaper with craveable ranch to make a creamy sauce that kicks, but won’t burn your mouth house down." The spicy sauce is then drizzled over boldly seasoned fries and topped with grilled steak, diced tomatoes, and warm nacho cheese sauce.
For those looking for another way to enjoy the new Steak Reaper Ranch combo, Taco Bell is also debuting a new Steak Reaper Ranch Fries Burrito.
