Mr Gatti’s Pizza Piles on the Pork with New Limited-Time “Whole Hog” Pizza

Mr Gatti’s Pizza is rolling out The Whole Hog, a new limited-time pizza topped with sausage, spicy sausage and bacon. The fall offer launched Oct. 1 at participating Mr Gatti’s Pizza locations and will be available through December 31, 2026.

The Whole Hog includes three pork toppings on Mr Gatti’s signature pizza, which is built on yeast-risen dough made fresh in store, layered with a tomato sauce that is fresh-packed four hours from harvest, and finished with 100% provolone cheese. The pizza is available for dine-in, carryout, and delivery. Pricing and sizes may vary by location.

The launch follows a run of limited-time menu additions for the brand, including its Hot Honey Trio and Kick’n Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza, as Mr Gatti’s continues to use short-run flavors to give guests a reason to visit more often.

Toppings and flavor profile

“The three toppings do different jobs on the pizza, and that is why the combination works,” said Travis Smith, executive vice president of Mr Gatti’s Pizza. “Bacon crisps in the oven and brings smoke and salt. Sausage renders as it bakes and seasons the cheese around it. The spicy sausage adds a slow heat that keeps the richness from feeling heavy, so guests get a pizza that still tastes balanced after the third slice.”

Pork-forward flavors tend to resonate as temperatures drop and families settle into football season and busier school-year schedules, because Mr Gatti’s pairs its pizza with games and room for large groups, The Whole Hog is also an easy option for team dinners, birthday parties and group outings.

“Our guests are often feeding a table of six or eight, and a pizza like this gives the whole group something to agree on,” Smith added. “It is built to be shared, and sharing is what our dining rooms and game rooms are designed around.”
