Four-time James Beard and Emmy award-winning chef and cultural explorer Andrew Zimmern is teaming up with Casey’s to bring back Casey's BBQ Brisket Pizza.

“I love gas station food and have tasted three lifetimes’ worth throughout my travels, and Casey’s pizza rises to the top,” said Zimmern. “Their homemade pizza is packed with big flavors, unique textures and fresh ingredients. The BBQ Brisket Pizza is a perfect example of that. I can’t wait for their guests to rediscover it this summer. Gas station pizza is my guilty pleasure — been saying it for about 20 years — and Casey’s is simply the best.”

Casey’s BBQ Brisket Pizza starts with their signature-made-from-scratch dough, layered with Sweet Baby Ray’s barbecue sauce and a blend of mozzarella and cheddar cheeses. Then comes the star of the show: double-hardwood, pit-smoked beef brisket that’s dry rubbed and slow smoked for up to 16 hours. The smoky-sweet brisket is hand-trimmed and piled on, then topped with jalapenos and red onions and finished with a ranch drizzle.

“When guests started asking to bring back our BBQ Brisket Pizza, we couldn’t say no,” said Brad Haga, senior vice president of prepared food and dispensed beverages at Casey’s. “Some may say it’s a little crazy to put BBQ brisket on a pizza, but it’s just the Casey’s way. We’ve taken the smoky, satisfying flavors of a backyard barbecue and put it on our homemade pizza. It doesn’t get much better than that.”

BBQ Brisket Pizza is available on Casey’s original or thin crust through Sept. 2, 2025, on the Casey’s app.
