The new Crispy, Curly Hot N’ Swicy pizza combines signature pepperoni, garlic parmesan stuffed crust, and hot honey for a limited-time fall offering.

  • Mountain Mike’s introduces Crispy, Curly Hot N’ Swicy™ pizza.
  • Includes signature crispy, curly pepperoni with Mike’s Hot Honey®.
  • Available nationwide through December 31.

Mountain Mike’s Pizza is bringing a sweet-and-spicy combination to its menu with the launch of Crispy, Curly Hot N’ Swicy pizza. The limited-time offering builds on the brand’s signature crispy, curly pepperoni, pairing it with GarlicParmStuft Crust, a cheesy stuffed crust brushed with garlic parmesan, and a drizzle of Mike’s Hot Honey. The combination adds a new flavor profile to a familiar menu favorite while retaining the ingredients that have helped define the chain’s pizza offerings.

Sheena Dougher, chief marketing officer at Mountain Mike’s Pizza, said the team developed the new pizza with fall occasions in mind, including game-day gatherings and casual meals with family and friends. The sweet heat of the honey complements the savory pepperoni and garlic parmesan crust, positioning the product as an option for customers looking for something different during the season.

The launch reflects a broader restaurant industry strategy of refreshing established menu items with distinctive flavor combinations. Rather than introducing an entirely new product category, Mountain Mike’s has built on an existing customer favorite, using hot honey and stuffed crust to create a variation that can attract attention while remaining recognizable to regular guests. Seasonal offerings can also give franchise locations a timely reason to reconnect with customers and encourage repeat visits.

Crispy, Curly Hot N’ Swicy pizza is available at Mountain Mike’s Pizza restaurants nationwide through December 31, 2026. The limited-time window gives customers an opportunity to try the new combination during the fall and holiday season, when gatherings and shared meals often play a central role in restaurant occasions.

For franchise operators, seasonal menu launches can also create opportunities to coordinate local marketing and promotional activity across locations. The Competitions and Promotions feature available through Gorilla Dash can help businesses organize campaigns around limited-time offers and keep promotional initiatives structured. The results of any campaign will depend on its execution, audience, and offer, but a coordinated approach can help franchise teams connect new menu items with the occasions they are designed to serve.
