Hello! The new menu from Pizza Hut is the New York Hot Dog Pizza, which you can enjoy by rolling a slice with sausage on top of the pizza dough. It makes you think, is it a pizza or a hot dog! Pizza Hut, known for its unique yet classic pizzas like the US Origin Cheese Dip, has raised expectations for this menu as well. I’m curious if all the ingredients are well incorporated while maintaining the unique concept! Let’s check out what this menu is all about!
Price and Features of New York Hot Dog Pizza
This menu is said to have transformed the iconic New York street food sausage into a pizza style, released as part of the US Origin series, featuring a unique edge composition. The edge is rolled with sausage and dipped in garlic dipping sauce, following a hot dog concept. When you order this time, a real garlic dipping sauce is also provided, so keep that in mind.
The regular price for a large is 30,900 won, but there is a discount event with delivery at 22,900 won and takeout at 20,900 won. The medium is 24,900 won, but delivery is 19,900 won and takeout is 17,900 won. Discounts are automatically applied when ordering through the Pizza Hut app. Note that duplicate discounts with telecom companies are not possible. I ordered the large size.
Composition of New York Hot Dog Pizza
Shall we unbox it and check the composition right away? As soon as you open the box, you can see the unique visual with the edge, pepperoni, and a bit of vegetables on top.
Overall, it has a somewhat unique shape, but the composition itself feels similar to a regular combination pizza. As mentioned earlier, when you order this menu, a generous amount of real garlic dipping sauce is provided, so it would be good to prepare a suitable dipping sauce dish!
The core of this menu is the sausage edge! In this menu, you cannot choose the edge separately, but it includes mini sausages about 1/3 or 1/2 the length of a hot dog sausage.
It seems they tried to emphasize the authentic hot dog feel by adding hot smoked mustard sauce on top of the sausage. However, since the core of a hot dog is the sausage, the taste may vary greatly depending on the type of sausage used!
The composition seems to include a bit of paprika, meat toppings, pepperoni, and onions. The taste seems to be focused almost entirely on the sausage! Let’s taste it right away to see what it tastes like.
Tasting the New York Hot Dog Pizza
I immediately took a slice and tasted it right away. Before tasting, you have to roll it up, but some might find it difficult to roll it neatly at once due to the mustard sauce sprinkled on the end!
When rolling the pizza, if you roll it slowly from the inside rather than the outside, it doesn’t get on your hands, making it easy to roll. Haha, the shape after rolling looks like this, and it’s quite thick than expected!
When you take a bite, you can definitely taste the sausage, and the smoky mustard flavor is the strongest! Combined with the pizza cheese, pizza dough, and a bit of pepperoni, it gives a hot dog feel, but ultimately, it feels like you’re eating a rolled-up pizza. Haha
If you dip it generously in garlic dipping sauce, the taste deepens even more. Although the dipping sauce might seem to cover the pizza taste, it significantly reduces the greasiness, making it feel like a really good combination. The sausage also seems to release quite a bit of juice, indicating that a high pork content was used.
This menu does not include a separate tomato pizza sauce, so you can feel a surprisingly mild taste. Even Americans seem to consider rolling or folding two pizzas into one as somewhat taboo in memes, but eating it this way as a reverse idea seems like a pretty good idea. Haha
Initially, you can eat it like a regular pizza, and then eat the remaining edge and sausage together at the end, which is also quite a good method. Eating it this way can give you a taste similar to an original hot dog.
This menu was also very successful! I ordered the large size and felt full after eating about 3 slices, but since I rolled it up to eat, I ended up eating it quite quickly, which left me feeling a bit unsatisfied. It’s a basic taste, but the unique concept, delicious sausage, and the harmony of the dipping sauce made it a well-balanced menu. With the discount applied, it’s a good value, so I recommend it.
