Burrito Bowl III was held Saturday at Poe’s Kitchen at the Rattlesnake on Boylston Street in the Back Bay. Seven chefs competed for the title of best burrito served in a bowl, naturally.

“TV Diner” co-host Jenny Johnson held up the trophy the chefs were fighting for, a multicolored pinata.

Seven chefs created burritos that, ostensibly, paid homage to their favorite NFL teams. Some even dressed up in team colors or, yes, facepaint. The teams represented by the chefs were the Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New Orleans Saints, Oakland Raiders, Philadelphia Eagles, San Diego Chargers, and Seattle Seahawks.

The unofficial best-dressed award went to Jimmy Christensen (left) and chef Brian Roche of Lolita, champion of Burrito Bowl II. Dressed up as a pair of rough-and-tumble Oakland Raiders fans, the Lolita crew served what it dubbed a pork-wrapped pork burrito, which included some pig’s blood in the concoction.

Fans of the Lolita crew’s food, and outfits, flocked for pictures.

Chef Jose Duarte of Taranta, champion of Burrito Bowl I, spoke about his burrito with Roberto Sepulveda and Maria Rodriguez, both of Boston. The traditional chicken-and-rice Peruvian-style burrito paid homage to Miami’s Latin culture, Duarte said.

Duarte’s staff was clad in teal Dolphins T-shirts, and this sign greeted those passing by Taranta’s table. Duarte said given a little more time, next year’s Taranta display could be even more intriguing. “I have a year, maybe I can get a Miami Dolphins cheerleader here,” he cracked.

The team led by Boloco’s Jason Hutchinson wore San Diego Chargers gear and created a burrito that started with a soft corn tortilla shell, a base of sweet corn cream, carnitas-style pork, a small ground tortilla chip, pan-fried queso blanco and chipotle sour cream.

Shawn Russell (left), chef at Poe’s Kitchen at the Rattlesnake, is a big Buffalo Bills fan. So it figured he’d concoct a Buffalo-themed burrito by turning the city’s staple of a beef on weck sandwich into a burrito, which included caraway seeds and au jus on the bottom of the bowl.

Andy Husbands (center), chef at Tremont 647, talked about his burrito offering, the cornerstone of which was fried guacamole. Husbands, a Seattle native, represented the Seahawks in the contest.

The Tremont 647 crew won the people’s choice award with the three-judge panel awarding the prized pinata to Hutchinson and Boloco. Hutchinson is shown with the judges holding the pinata.
