LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza, the recognized world leader in fast artisanal pizza, is turning up the heat with its newest Signature Pizza, the Hot Link. Executive Chef Bradford Kent has put his culinary spin on the traditional sausage pizza and punches up the flavor and heat. This is Blaze’s first Signature Pizza to feature the company’s house-made spicy red sauce and is topped with Italian sausage, jalapeños, banana peppers, whole-milk mozzarella cheese, black olives and red onions.
The Hot Link will launch exclusively on the Blaze Pizza app and Blaze Pizza website on August 21st before launching nationwide for all guests on September 4.
“While our original red sauce is a classic, our spicy red sauce, made with roasted garlic cloves and jalapeño, has a cult following that really gets our fans fired up,” said Kent. “They crave spicy food and a ton of flavor and we’re excited to deliver a dose of heat with our newest Signature Pizza. Get it while it’s hot.”
Since 2012, Blaze Pizza has been serving artisanal pies that are both fast and affordable. Each restaurant features an interactive open kitchen format that allows guests to customize one of the menu’s generously sized personal signature pizzas or create your own, all for around $8. Every pizza features our made-from-scratch dough crafted in house daily, all-natural meats and vegetables, and is finished in an open flame oven which cooks pizzas in three minutes flat. For guests with special dietary needs, Blaze offers gluten-free dough, vegan cheese, animal rennet free dairy, and tree-nut free pesto. Each of these elements has assisted the brand with becoming the fastest growing restaurant in history.
