This summer’s big new movie is Deadpool & Wolverine and DiGiorno is jumping on the bandwagon with the release of four new limited-edition pizzas to celebrate the release. According to Guilty Eats, Kimberly Holowiak, Senior Brand Manager for DiGiorno said: “This summer, we’re taking it up a notch by teaming up with Marvel Studios’ DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE to create limited-edition pizzas that fans won’t want to miss – so we encourage fans to get them while they can.”
Here are the four new pizzas that are available now:
- Maximum Pep – DiGiorno says this pizza is “made with maximum flavor and zero regrets – just like Deadpool’s decisions- Maximum Pep is piled high with sliced and diced pepperoni.” It’s a thin crust pie not unlike a regular pepperoni DiGiorno’s pizza.
- Spicy Wolvie Pie – described as “crafted with wolverine and other meat lovers in mind, this pie is stacked with pepperoni, chorizo and bacon.” It’s similar to the Maximum Pep pizza with some added flavor.
- The Wade Special – “A sweet and salty combo not just for mercs, made with pineapple and black olives to pay homage to Wade Wilson’s pizza in the first movie.” It’s not for everyone, maybe because of the pineapple, and it’s aimed for lovers of a sweet and salty combination.
- Gimme Chimi – since Deadpool loves chimichangas, this is “a chimichanga-inspired pizza that is a fiesta for your tastebuds and topped with spicy cumin sauce, beef topping, jalapeño, and cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.” This was the favorite of Guilty Eats reviewers despite it being very spicy.
All of the pizzas have a suggested retail price of $6.49 and every box except the Spicy Wolvie Pie comes with a cut-out Deadpool mask. In addition, fans can win a trip to Los Angeles by going to DiGiorno.com/deadpoolandwolverine through August 26 for a chance to win one of these prizes:
- A pizza party in Los Angeles where a private chef will make the limited-edition pizzas and you’ll also receive a stunt masterclass where you can learn katana combat moves, just like Deadpool.
- Merc merchandise including cool accessories and collectible swag.
- Fandango movie tickets to see Deadpool & Wolverine.
This promotion is called The DiGiorno Chaotic Good ‘Stakes and is “open only to residents of the 50 U.S. and DC, 18 or older (or 19 for residents of AL & NE, 21 for MS).”
5 of the Best Burgers on Menus in North Carolina
There are a few things that get me more excited than anything. That's shopping and eating. Whether it's me cooking a new meal, cooking my favorite meal, or even going to some of my favorite restaurants. One of the best things to also do is try new foods and restaurants around your area. I have moved around quite a few times in the last few years, but in every spot I lived, I went looking for restaurants. Whether it was simple stuff like American and pizza or I was trying new stuff like Tex-Mex when living in Houston, TX.
While sitting and eating my somewhat healthy lunch, I started thinking about cheeseburgers. This is somewhat ironic because I am not a fan of cheeseburgers but sometimes those burgers can really hit the spot. A juicy patty with a great slice of cheese and tons of topping options is one of those things everyone can call a great meal. Don't even let me get started on having the perfect side item to go along with that burger.
So, while I was sitting and thinking I decided to go look up some great cheeseburgers in the state of North Carolina. Now, I know that is probably a wide range but I wanted to see how crazy some of these restaurants get. I wanted to see if I could find those hidden gems with some crazy, super tasty cheeseburger options. So, take a ride through my mind and check out 5 of the best cheeseburgers I could find in North Carolina.
Mama Crow’s Burger and Salad Shop
Up first, we're visiting a spot in Raleigh, North Carolina. Mama Crow's is a burger joint serving up a few different burger options for one to enjoy. One of their famous and most popular burgers is their smash burger. The burger is double smashed patties with cheese curds, mushrooms, onions, goat cheese, and black mayo on fresh bread. How insane does that burger sound? You can even add bacon on to it and make it your own a little! They also have burger specials and deals you can try throughout the year.
Hops Burger Bar
Now, we're heading to Greensboro, North Carolina to check out this burger bar. Hops Burger Bar is serving up fresh burgers with some locally grown ingredients to include on it. Each week they do a different featured burger for guests to try and enjoy. The options are endless. One burger that looked great to me is the pickleback. Enjoy a burger topped with fried onion rings, bbq sauce, and bourbon marinated pickles. Like what?! I can only imagine! They don't have a photo, but here's a picture of another insane weekly featured burger.
Bang Bang Burgers
Now, we're right here in Charlotte. Bang Bang Burgers gives you high-quality, made-from-scratch burgers for you to enjoy. They are very well known for their burger options and the menu does not disappoint. One burger you might enjoy is the Tint Burger. This burger can be in either a single or a double and it comes with pepper jack cheese, onion strings, shaved jalapenos, and siracho mayo. Whew!
The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar
Now, I am sure that sushi is not the first thing you think about when you are talking about a burger. Well, The Cowfish is one spot you might think about both because that's what they are serving up. The have a location in both Charlotte and Raleigh to enjoy. The Charlotte menu has tons of options, but one burger that stands out is the jalapeno popper show stopper burger. This burger comes with 1/2 pound of beef, jalapeno infused cream cheese, jalapeno bacon, fried jalapenos, jalapeno citrus aioli, lettuce, tomato, and fresh jalapenos on a brioche bun. Now, talk about a beast of a burger!
Jack Brown's Beer & Burgers
Head to Greenville, North Carolina (or South Carolina) to visit this spot! Jack Brown's is a burger joint that serves 100% wagyu beef burgers putting unique twists on some of your favorite classics. One of their famous everyday classics is the Elvis burger. It's a burger topped with peanut butter, mayo, applewood smoked bacon, and American cheese. Now, I am not sure how I feel about that peanut butter, so someone else should try it out and let me know!
