Mountain Mike's Pizza has announced the nationwide launch of its new GarlicParmStuft Crust, marking the first time the nearly 50-year-old chain has offered a stuffed crust option, according to a press release.
The new menu item features fresh-made dough rolled around mozzarella cheese, which is then baked and brushed with a garlic herb seasoning and parmesan cheese. The upgrade is available for $2 on any large pizza at all locations.
The company stated the addition is designed to complement its existing "toppings to the edge" philosophy by extending the flavor profile into the crust itself.
"GarlicParmStuft Crust ushers in a proud new era for Mountain Mike's as our first innovation of this kind, and it demonstrates our deep and longstanding commitment to delighting customers, elevating every pizza experience and always redefining what pizza can be," Jim Metevier, CEO of Mountain Mike's Pizza, said in the press release. "Our pizzas are famous for toppings that reach all the way to the edge, and GarlicParmStuft extends our bold pizza flavor even further while bringing an entirely new level of decadence to the Mountain Mike's dining experience."
The GarlicParmStuft Crust joins a list of recent menu expansions for the brand, including Mountain Fries and Mini Churrs.
"GarlicParmStuft Crust is a true gamechanger for Mountain Mike's, as we're upending what a stuffed crust can be by combining our legendary toppings with a mozzarella-filled, garlic-parmesan edge that packs bold flavor into every bite," Carol DeNembo, CMO of Mountain Mike's Pizza, said in the press release. "This isn't just a new menu item; it's a new standard for indulgence and the ultimate way to enjoy Mountain Mike's Pizza."
Customers can order the new crust via dine-in, carryout, or through the brand's mobile app and delivery partners.
Mountain Mike's Pizza has nearly 330 locations.
