Austin Wells Becomes Breakfast Burrito Influencer: A Delicious New Journey
When you think of a New York Yankees catcher, your mind likely leaps to home runs, strikeouts, and clutch plays. However, Austin Wells has embarked on an unexpected adventure: a culinary exploration of breakfast burritos on Instagram. With the handle @wells.ranked.burritos, Wells is carving out a niche as a food influencer while the MLB season heats up.
A Change in Game Plan
Gone are the days when Wells’ sole focus was purely baseball; this past weekend, he debuted his breakfast burrito series, and the fans couldn’t get enough. With a spirited review style, Wells aims to provide followers with the best breakfast burrito rankings, turning an everyday meal into prima-donna cuisine.
The Ratings
Wells kicked off his burrito reviews with a spicy chorizo burrito, giving it an impressive 87 out of 100. The flavor-packed combo clearly left its mark on him. He followed up with a review of Parkhurst’s steak and egg burrito, which only earned a 73 out of 100. Wells quipped that he preferred the chorizo because “it added more flavor.” With commentary like that, his candid evaluations might just transform the breakfast burrito game.
What Makes a Perfect Breakfast Burrito?
So what secrets does Wells harbor about his burrito criteria? He shared his personal preference, emphasizing the importance of simplicity and flavor:
“I really love a chorizo burrito, a little crisp on the tortilla, just a lot of eggs,” he stated. “So kind of simple, but a good flavor.”
He reminisced about a particularly mouth-watering burrito from a game in Miami, endorsing The Elk and Little Ruby’s in New York City as top-notch burrito spots.
Upcoming Reviews
Excited followers can anticipate more “burrito reviews” from the visiting clubhouse at Comerica Park, where Wells and the Yankees will face the Tigers in a series of afternoon games.
The Fun Around the Food
Even Yankees manager Aaron Boone has chimed in on Wells’ food review venture, finding it amusing yet questioning the scoring system. Boone’s take adds a layer of lighthearted competition:
“He gave an 87, which is an interesting score. We tend to rank things on the coaching staff more on the scouting scale, 20 to 80," Boone shared with a smile.
Meanwhile, in the press box, Michael Kay, the YES Network’s play-by-play announcer, has also taken a crack at food reviews, launching his own Instagram handle, @Kay_Eats_Tendies to focus on ballpark chicken tenders. Wells humorously commented on Kay’s intriguing AI-generated profile picture and the budding rivalry, saying:
“I’m a little worried. We’ll see how it goes. There’s no going back.”
