Today Kevin and Al are going to be trying the California Pizza Kitchen this is the barbecue chicken recipe it is a crispy thin crust pizza topped with barbecue seasoned grilled white meat chicken red onions cilantro mozzarella and hickory smoked guda cheeses over sweet and tangy barbecue sauce um our

Real ingredient promise 100% real cheese no artificial flavors preservative free crust well that didn’t work I went like I was holding the tie and I was going to go whoop and it yeah that that’s what came off so uh thanks but no thanks yeah that did not work at all this was

$788 at Walmart so uh the last one from California Pizza Kitchen that we tried was O I love all those red onions was uh like $9 and something so this is a lot cheaper from Walmart so if you can get it find the one you want at Walmart then

You’re going to save some money this you want to preheat your oven to 400° you want to remove from the box plastic wrap and cardboard place it directly in the uh center rack and then you want to bake it for 15 to 16 minutes and it does come with cardboard so you

Keep that so you can cut it on there but we’re we’re going to bake it for the longest time we’re going to go for 16 minutes and then we’ll be back so we left the pizza in the full time uh but this is what it looks like it smells

Wonderful like you get ay barbecue yes it smells um yes Smoky but sweet it smells like really sweet to me uh so I’m very excited to try this so this pizza it says there’s three servings 13 of the pizza 139 G is 2 290 calories or you can

Eat the entire pizza for 880 calories good 440 calories for yeah I think so too uh uh they’re as sweet as it smells these are distributed by Nestle in Arlington Virginia okay so uh the last um the last barbecue chicken we uh Pizza we had was from Trader Joe’s and it sounds very

Similar it had uh Tangy barbecue sauce chicken mozzarella and GED cheese and red onions so it does this one has guda and everything as well this one has it’s this one says cilantro I don’t remember the other one having all this uh green but it’s really thin that’s for sure

Mhm you save a good portion of your calories mhm plus honestly there’s not tons and tons of cheese like it’s not super thick a lay of cheese it’s very thin my memory is the the other one the treer Joe’s one had a little bit more barbecue sauce on it but this has plenty

I mean you can taste it for sure I’m thinking when we did that Review I’m thinking we said we wish it had more barbecue sauce H right I was thinking I was thinking that’s what we said that we wish we had it had more barbecue sauce but we really like the flavor see I’ve had a Jets barbecue chicken between them mhm so mhm so it’s

Kind of clouded my judgment mhm yeah I’m almost positive we we liked it we like the onions and the and the chicken and stuff but yeah seemed like I big remember that you see how quick you can eat it and this is like straight out of the

Oven we didn’t let it sit and cool off or anything like that I don’t know why I guess because it doesn’t have a thick layer of cheese like Kevin said and there’s not a ton of sauce so it’s not there’s not a lot of to burn the roof of

Your mouth no really hot liquid or anything like that right so you can pretty much eat these immediately you don’t have to wait for them to cool off at all as a matter of fact I wouldn’t want to wait too long it went way too

Long um I do like this one I don’t think the onions are as strong though cuz it seems like the trer Joe’s when we really tasted the onions was I remember us saying we really liked them mhm I do like this though I do like that Smokey

Barbecue SA sauce it’s really nice mhm but I think this barbecue sauce on this pizza um I think this is enough for me I mean I like this amount where I’m almost positive on that Trader Joe’s when we said we wish it had more I don’t

Um um I don’t think I would need anymore to be I mean I’m very satisfied with this amount I think this is a great amount um I agree with you about the onions I think the onions were stronger on the Trader Joe’s than this um but I

Think this is a delicious pizza what do you think about the crust um I really like the crust it doesn’t have a ton of flavor it’s more of just the holder for the stuff but it’s it’s plain it’s very Pline it’s very thin there’s nothing wrong with it it’s not incredibly um

Crunchy like I say that as he’s crunching over there it’s just the edge I’m got I got the very edge right but the center part is honestly it’s a little bit chewy mhm um but I like it overall you when you’re eating this I think you’re eating it for the barbecue

Sauce but then you’re also getting the texture of the chicken I don’t necessarily taste cilantro no I’m sure it adds to it but right and I don’t really taste the like I said the red onion a lot you’re eating it for the chicken and for the barbecue right yeah

That’s majority you’re getting you’re getting mostly chick barbecue sauce hly it’s good though I like it I like the it I’m glad they went with a smoky sweet kind of barbecue sauce cuz I wouldn’t have liked it if it had been like more Savory like spicy um I’m glad it’s kind

Of a sweet barbecue it’s it’s really nice well this particular one the barbecue chicken Kevin has reviewed it on his lunchtime review Channel and on that channel he does only does the microwave he doesn’t do smaller version right so you’ve seen it now how it is

Out of the oven I I love it it would be interesting to for you to go back and see or for you all if you’re interested in how’s it like out of the microwave you could go back to that video and see what Kevin thought of it out of the

Microwave if you liked it as much but I think this is great I would totally buy it again I would give this and I love the price $7.88 I think it’s awesome yeah I agree so I hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for Watching

  1. I haven’t tried the frozen version, however this one is delicious at the restaurant! I’m going to pick this one up and compare to Trader Joe’s! Great review.

  2. Thanks for a great review. I buy n enjoy the Marguerita pizza. We went to a California Pizza restaurant many times before moving. Watching the pizzas made and cook in oven was fun and delicious.
    Have a fun day.

  3. This sounds good! I will have to pick up one my next trip to Walmart. 🙂
    Thanks for the review 👍

  4. I wouldn't go for BBQ chicken pizza since it's too unconventional of a flavor to me for pizza, but then again in my area they sell penne vodka pizza soo 🤷‍♀ 😂

  5. jewels had this on sale last week. the chicken was moist but I couldn't taste the onions at all. it was also extremely light on the sauce. it wasn't bad but it's not something I'd keep on rotation

  6. This is my all time favorite pizza from the store! It’s not too caloric and it just tastes nice! I eat the whole pizza myself. I’m not a thin crust pizza normally. I can’t wait to try the Trader Joe’s one! 🎉

    I’m so glad you liked this pizza!!!

  7. I was going to ask if you prefer this to tjs? I detest cilantro too.. so I’m kind of hoping you say tjs is better… lol

  8. I had to laugh when I saw you guys reviewing this. It is by far my dad's all time favorite frozen pizza. He went on a bender once when our extra freezer was full of em. His little hack was to always put fresh cilantro on top at the end to make them a little bit more like the ones in the restaurant. Haven't been to a CPK in years, but in the late 2000s we used to really like the one by us before it closed. I think the BBQ chicken is the pizza they're most famous for.
