Jalapeño Popper Pizzeria Dishes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The &pizza Popper Pepper Menu Items Come in Two Varieties

— January 6, 2025 — Lifestyle
The &pizza Popper Pepper menu items are making their way to participating locations as a series of satisfyingly spicy options that will offer a warming touch of spice in every bite. The menu items come in two options including the Popper Pepper Pie and the Popper Pepper Knots, which are each inspired by the classic jalapeño popper and offer a new interpretation. The Popper Pepper Pie boasts jalapeños, chopped bacon and a cream cheese drizzle overtop, while the Popper Pepper Knots feature the same ingredients but in smaller, bite-sized servings.

CEO Mike Burns commented on the &pizza Popper Pepper menu items saying, "We wanted to come out swinging and start the year off with something that would be a conversation starter, and at wallet friendly price point, and we did exactly that. Hats off to our culinary team for bringing this one out of the oven – it’s next level and indicative of what’s to come from &pizza this year.”
