BBQ… there’s nothing I love more, except maybe BBQ and a beer! So it’s with a smile on my face that I’m writing about two new BBQ collaborations.

Here’s some more good news for your taste buds, it’s still not too late to try out a dream team partnership between Phil’s BBQ and Sammy Woodfired Pizza. The two San Diego-based food institutions have teamed up on three new collaboration items. They’ve come up with a BBQ Chicken Salad with fresh corn, tomatoes, red onion, gorgonzola and crispy tortilla strips.
Also on the menu is a BBQ Pizza featuring Phil’s boneless pork ribs, pineapple, chili oil, garlic, red bell peppers and mozzarella. There’s also an angel-hair pasta dish tossed in a garlicky cream sauce and topped with a beef rib and sauce. The specialty dishes are available at all 7 Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza locations through Father’s Day, June 17th.
A portion of the proceeds from the items sold benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters.
