National Deep Dish Pizza Day may be in our rearview mirrors, but the lasting impacts of this innovative foodservice partnership certainly aren’t. Mike’s Hot Honey collaborated with Lou Malnati’s to give pizza fans the pizza offering of a lifetime.
"We are thrilled to be partnering with the oldest family name in Chicago pizza to create our first deep dish pizza collaboration," said Mike Kurtz, Founder of Mike's Hot Honey. "As a New Yorker, I was weary about deep dish pizza, but after trying Lou Malnati's, I'm sold and I can't wait for their guests to taste this delicious Chicago meets New York creation and have the opportunity to enjoy our hot honey on thin crust pizza and wings, too."
Having debuted on April 5—appropriately National Deep Dish Pizza Day—the Lou’s x Mike Hot Honey Pizza is a limited-time offering at Lou Malnati’s locations.
“After an exhaustive search over many years, we finally found something from New York that is worthy of adding to our Chicago deep dish pizza. A little drizzle of Mike Kurtz’s Hot Honey creates a spectacular marriage of sweet and savory that every pizza lover will want to experience,” said Marc Malnati, Owner of Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria.
Available in both deep dish and thin crust, this pizza offering combines the best of both Chicago and New York.
In addition to the launch of the pizza, Lou Malnati’s will offer guests the chance to sample the sweet and spicy flavor profile of Mike’s Hot Honey as a sauce option for their traditional and boneless chicken wings.
Sounds like a match made in heaven to me!
