Pizza is always a crowd pleaser whenever you need to feed a group. Whether you order delivery or make your own from scratch, there are rarely leftovers. But even the pizza die-hards can get tired of the same old, same old every time you get together. Which is why these BBQ Chorizo Pizza Pinwheels are a flavorful way to entice those pizza lovers with tasty new flavors.
These BBQ Chorizo Pizza Pinwheels deliver much bigger flavor than their short, 6-ingredient list suggests. The secret to this winning flavor combination? The sauce. On top of being all natural (meaning no artificial preservatives or colors), the rich flavors of molasses and brown sugar in the Stubb’s Sticky Sweet Bar-B-Q Sauce are the perfect partner for the spicy chorizo, buttery Monterey Jack and mild green onions.
