The cons: Smaller than some pizzas in the frozen pizza. Not a traditional pizza which might not sit well with purists. Has cilantro on it, so if you are not a fan of that flavor you might want to avoid this.
The verdict: For $4.99 you are getting a fully loaded pizza that has as many toppings as the thin crust will allow. This is not a pizza in the traditional red sauce and mozzarella type of way. In place of the red sauce is the BBQ sauce. That BBQ sauce has a tomato base which will make it seem a little bit more traditional, but the spices make this more of a different dish. The BBQ sauce is tangy as well. There is a lot of smokey flavor that comes through here. It's in the Gouda, the chicken, and the BBQ sauce. There is enough cheese to satisfy as both Gouda and Mozzarella are present.
Trader Joe's didn't hold back on the amount of chicken on this pizza. I'm surprised the thin crust did such a good job of holding it up. The onions were cooked but still had a bite to them. The onions did add a nice touch of extra flavor and texture. They were also a nice contrast in flavors to everything else presented here. There is just a bit of cilantro here, but not a lot. I always make it a point to mention whether or an item contains cilantro. Believe it or not, to a part of the population they are tasting something completely different. I adore the taste, while my husband can't stand it. He says it tastes like soap. Why is this? Well, genetics.
Homemade Bbq Chicken Pizza
Overall, I enjoyed this. If you like BBQ chicken, then this is a good option in the freezer aisle. As a dish, it's got some good elements mixed together with a crisp crust. It's a very unexpected pizza and it works. After a slice and a side salad, I was full. It didn't amaze me, but I found it to be a solid choice. I'd buy it again.
Would I buy this again? Yes. Trader Joe's BBQ Chicken Pizza was a refreshing change to regular traditional pizza, I enjoyed this and would absolutely consider buying this again. It won't make the weekly list, but has good elements without being traditional.Trader Joe’s BBQ Chicken Pizza Review – If feels like I’m doing a continuing series on products that have been in Trader Joe’s for many years, but somehow I never reviewed them. I think these fall into two categories, stuff I eat all the time, like Chicken Fried Rice and just never got around to a review. Then there are things I would never buy for myself of the family, and BBQ Chicken Pizza falls into this category.
I think Trader Joe’s has been carrying this pizza as long as I’ve been shopping there. They must sell a lot of them. Don’t get me wrong, I pretty much like all pizza (well except Hawaiian pizza with pineapple and ham), but BBQ pizza is not my first choice (or 2nd or 3rd) I’ve eaten my fair share of BBQ chicken pizza because there always seems to be somebody at a party of when I got out with friends that wants one. This is purely an Americanization of pizza (just like the Hawaiian one) and I doubt you find it anywhere else in the world. I am a traditionalist when it comes to pizza. Plain cheese maybe with some basil. Pepperoni or even a pizza with mushrooms and prosciutto. KISS (Keep it Simple Stupid) is my motto.
Simple Summer Grilling For Two With Trader Joe's Grilled Chimichurri Chicken Skewers
Having said that, I know there are people that love BBQ pizza. I’ve been to California pizza kitchen and I’ve had Kung Pao pizza before. Almost anything goes here in this country. One of the most popular nontraditional pizzas is BBQ. Not sure how BBQ chicken pizza became a thing. This pizza is made with BBQ sauce, chicken, red onions, and Gouda cheese. It’s pretty similar in size and calorie count to many of their other frozen pizzas. Just pop it in the oven at 425 for about 12 minutes until it’s cooked through.
First I want to mention that the pizza-making machine was a little off-center on this pizza. It didn’t affect the flavor in any way, just looks lopsided. The crust is the typical Trader Joe’s frozen pizza crust, kind of thin and crunchy. Not what you’d expect from anything from a pizzeria or even a home pizza, but I kind of like a crackery type crust. It’s got a nice crunch to it.
The toppings I thoroughly enjoyed. There was plenty of chicken and it was nice and tender. There was plenty of BBQ sauce and it was tangy and full of flavor with a slight smokiness and slightly sweet. I really liked it. I’m not a fan of red onions, but there weren’t that many to distract but I couldn’t pick them off. They weren’t too offensive, but that’s just me. As for the cheese, I’m a cheese lover, there is never too much. I really liked the Gouda here. It has a more creamy texture and buttery flavor than mozzarella. It works as a nice counter balance to the tangy BBQ sauce.
