Stuff It: Gut Check Makes Stuffed Crust Pizza Monsters

In the last month we've seen Pizza Hut UK introduce a hot dog stuffed crust pizza and Pizza Hut Middle East roll out a cheeseburger stuffed crust pizza and a chicken filet stuffed crust pizza. We reported that Pizza Hut US re-released its cheesy bites pizza, which is basically a crust made of mini cheesy breadsticks. We call shenanigans. We call bullshit. And we demand satisfaction. In an attempt to offer Pizza Hut US more creative (read: monstrous) ideas for ingenious (read: abominable) stuffed crust pizzas, Gut Check conducted a series of decidedly non-scientific experiments in our test kitchen. The ingredients included: Crab Rangoon from Chinese Noodle Cafe, sliders, French fries and mozzarella sticks from White Castle, Bagel Bites, pizza rolls, taquitos, Combos, Pretzel Dogs and a combination of Nutella, bananas, peanut butter and jelly. Click here for the full results, including the winners and "every second I live is agony" losers.

Don't be afraid to experiment. This pizza was half pizza rolls, half Combos.
Generously top your half and half pizza with cheese and more Combos.
