May is here… 🌸
And you know what that means…
The BBQ Chicken Pizza is BACK, baby! 🍕🤤
Loaded with fresh mozzarella, Stubb’s BBQ sauce, marinated chicken & onions — then finished with a crispy haystack of to***co onions and an extra drizzle of smoky BBQ goodness.
Sweet. Smoky. Crunchy. Completely craveable. 🔥
Basically… your new May obsession. 😉
