The pizza starts off with a Smoky BBQ Seasoned Crust that's packed with flavor before being topped with barbecue sauce in place of tomato sauce, cheese, ham, smoked black pepper crumbled bacon and applewood-smoked bacon strips. The final result is a smoky, cheesy and meat pizza that will satisfy consumer cravings perfectly this summer. The Little Caesars BBQ Bacon Blast Pizza is priced at $9.99 for a large, but will only be around for a short while. The pizza could show up on additional menus across the US, depending on how the pilot test goes.
