Peace, Love and Burgertacos: Del Taco’s New Mashup is Bringing America Together like Never Before

August 13, 2026 // Franchising.com // LAKE FOREST, Calif. – Del Taco is bringing together two of its most iconic menu items in an all-new way with the debut of the NEW All-American Burgertaco. Launching August 6 for a limited time, the brand’s latest innovation combines the signature flavors of its beloved Double Del® Cheeseburger and legendary Big Fat Taco, creating a one-of-a-kind mashup that only Del Taco could deliver. 

"Our fans have always loved that they can order amazing burgers and tacos from the same menu since 1964, so we’re leaning into their cravings with a new item that’s unmistakably Del Taco,” said Noah Chillingworth, Chief Marketing Officer at Del Taco. “Whether you love tacos or burgers, all Americans can agree that Del Taco’s new Burgertaco delivers an iconic flavor  for guests who want the best of both worlds.” 

The All-American Burgertaco is a one-of-a-kind creation that transforms Del Taco's popular Double Del® Cheeseburger into taco form. Wrapped in a warm, buttery toasted flatbread, the mashup features two grilled-to-order all-beef patties, two slices of American cheese, fresh sliced tomatoes, crisp shredded lettuce, diced onions and signature burger sauce. The All-American Burgertaco delivers the distinctive taste of a classic American cheeseburger and ratchets up the experience with the unique flavors of Del Taco's legendary Big Fat Taco.  

Del Taco is also offering Dirty Del beverages and expanding the flavor lineup. Dirty Del beverages are prepared with a vanilla shake base and lime finish. Five flavors are available in 16- or 24-ounce sizes. From August 10 through August 16, Dirty Del beverages will be available at participating locations.
