Ever dreamed about a cheeseburger in pizza form? Well you’ll be happy to know that Papa Johns is bringing back their famous Cheesy Burger Pizza to the menu for this Summer season.
The returning pizza is basically a refreshed version of their Double Cheeseburger Pizza, and has since gone a bit of change to become what it is now.
The burger-themed pizza features a quarter pound of beef, diced tomatoes, dill pickles, and also some burger sauce. And for those interested, the burger sauce is actually described as being a “classic zesty burger sauce that is made from ketchup and mayonnaise”.
Guests who order this pizza will have to know that it is only being offered in a medium size. No idea why they don’t offer it in a larger size, but they do give you the option to add additional toppings for an extra charge if you so want.
Also, if you are a fan of the burger sauce, you can even get it in a cup on the side for dipping.
The Cheesy Burger Pizza is currently being offered at a starting price of around $12.99, but prices will vary depending on location. So if you’re wanting to try, then head to your local Papa Johns now to check it out.
What To Try At Papa Johns
Being as how its the Summer season, many fast food restaurants are releasing a variety of new and old menu items for people to try. And just like the rest, Papa Johns is also doing something to bring in the fans.
Shaq-a-Roni Pizza
For those who don’t know, Shaquille O’ Neal is a part owner of Papa Johns having owned a large amount of Papa Johns franchises.
Because of this, the brand even created a special pizza based on Shaq and is offering it on the menu. Known as the Shaq-a-Roni Pizza, it is a pizza that often comes and goes throughout the years.
It’s now back on the menu and features over half a pound of cheese and extra pepperoni on an extra-large pizza with eight foldable slices of their fresh, never frozen original dough. Served with their Special Garlic Sauce and a pepperoncini.
The Shaq-a-Roni Pizza is currently being offered for $17.99, but prices may vary depending on location.
Cheddar Crust
One of the newest releases from the brand is something called a Cheddar Crust.
You might be thinking, what in the world is a Cheddar Crust Pizza? Well, it basically takes the brand famous original crust and melts some seasoned cheddar cheese on top of it.
And what’s great about this is that you can basically get it with any type of pizza toppings you want. Since it’s basically just the crust, you can get things like The Works, The Meats, Pepperoni or even create your own custom pizza using this crust.
So if you’re a fan of cheese, then this is definitely for you.

McDonald’s Daily Double Burger
McDonald’s latest creation is something that might make you think came straight out of Jeopardy. But in fact, it’s actually their newest burger called the Daily Double Burger.
It was originally tested back in a few cities like Chicago, Miami and Seattle and have since proved successful enough to bring out nationwide.
The Daily Double Burger features two 100 percent beef patties, seasoned to perfection, melty American cheese topped off with some shredded lettuce, slivered onions, mayo and two juicy slices of tomato.
In our opinion, it kind of looks like a double meat cheeseburger deluxe.
Expect to pay around $6 to $7 for it a la carte depending on which location you are buying it from.
What Food Senpai Thinks
The Cheesy Burger Pizza has got to be one of the most interesting items ever released by Papa Johns. And not only them, but in all of the fast food pizza companies.
Not too many brands will create a cheese burger flavored pizza, but Papa Johns dared to be innovative. And what they created not only looks good but also tastes good too. How do we know? Because we actually tried this when it first came out many moons ago.
We’re quite happy they brought this back as burgers are some of the most popular foods ever and seeing it in pizza form will definitely make a lot of people happy.
