Casey's Barn Burner Chicken Pizza

Culinary Icon Meets a Midwest Original

Best known for discovering the most delicious foods across the country and world, four-time James Beard and Emmy award-winning chef, Andrew Zimmern, experienced Casey’s commitment to exploring unexpected flavor territory firsthand while judging Casey’s annual Pizza Competition.

“I’ve tasted a lot of gas station food in my life, and Casey’s pizza is in a league of its own,” said Zimmern. “The creativity I saw judging the Casey’s Pizza Competition was incredible, and Terrell’s Barn Burner Chicken Pizza stood out instantly. It’s bold, balanced and built with a spicy BBQ flavor that keeps coming. Casey’s shows what happens when passionate chefs have the freedom to innovate and that great pizza can come from unexpected places, and this slice is proof.”

The Barn Burner Chicken Pizza was born to be wild. Built with a Sriracha sauce base, grilled chicken, bacon, real mozzarella and cheddar cheese, red onion, jalapenos and finished with a post-bake drizzle of Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce, we couldn’t keep this one in the coop.

How Casey’s Creates the Next Big Slice

The annual Casey’s Pizza Competition is a bracket-style culinary showdown that invites team members from all corners of Casey’s Country to develop new flavors and showcase their creativity. Entries are judged on visual presentation, taste and innovation, with four finalists earning a spot on the big stage at the annual Casey’s Commitment Conference to prepare their pizzas for a panel of judges that includes Casey’s executive chef and culinary director, Andrew Kintigh, and special celebrity guests like Chef Zimmern. The winning pie, the Barn Burner Chicken Pizza, is the latest example of how ideas sparked in Casey’s kitchens evolve into limited-time offerings that become fan favorites.

“Our team members at Casey’s aren’t just making pizzas – they’re creating the next big flavors,” said Brad Haga, Senior Vice President of Prepared Food and Dispensed Beverages at Casey’s. “When an idea like the Barn Burner Chicken Pizza comes out of our own kitchens, we don’t overthink it. We bring it to our guests. It’s a flavor-forward take on BBQ that works, and we knew our guests would be excited to try it. Bold flavors keep us true to what we’re known for and if it seems crazy, that just means its Casey’s.”
