Papa Johns has redefined the “large pizza” with a new pie that’s now available nationwide: the Grand Papa.
The chain said the Grand Papa is its largest pizza ever. Described as “XXL,” it measures 18 inches and is cut into eight oversize slices. It’s priced at $14.99 and debuts as the holiday season approaches.
The Grand Papa comes topped with a three-cheese blend, a new deli-style pepperoni from Hillshire Farms, and the brand’s signature Italian seasoning.
Thomas Smith, Little Caesars’ senior director of culinary and corporate chef, helped bring the Grand Papa to life. He said it’s “even larger and thinner than our NY-style pizza. A 16-inch New York pizza starts as a 14-inch dough stretched to 16 inches, but the Grand Papa goes all the way to 18. It’s so big we needed bigger boxes.”
Papa Johns also introduced the Salted Caramel Blondie, a dessert bar made with brown sugar, salted caramel chips and a sprinkle of sea salt. That item will become available on Monday, November 10, at a price of $4.99 (or $6.99 when ordered as part of Papa Johns’ Papa Pairings deal).
It should also be noted that Papa Johns is currently offering a sweeping 50% discount on all regular menu-priced pizzas—including any size, any crust and any toppings—for carryout orders only.
