The Perfect Pizza and Wings Combo

Pizza and wings - is there a more iconic duo in the fast food world? This combination has become a staple for game nights, parties, and casual get-togethers across Canada. At Pizza73, we've perfected both items individually, but there's a special magic when they come together. In this post, we'll explore how to create the ultimate pizza and wings combo for any occasion.

Why Pizza and Wings Work So Well Together

There's a reason pizza and wings have become inseparable companions on menus across North America. This perfect pairing offers:

• Complementary flavors: The rich, cheesy profile of pizza contrasts beautifully with the tangy, spicy kick of wings
• Textural variety: Crispy wings provide a different mouthfeel from the soft-yet-structured pizza
• Shared eating experience: Both foods are designed for sharing, making them perfect for social gatherings
• Balanced meal: Together they provide a more complete protein profile than either alone

Choosing the Right Pizza

When planning your combo, the pizza selection is crucial. Here are some tips for selecting the perfect pizza to pair with wings:

Consider Wing Flavors

If you're planning on spicy wings, a pizza with more mild toppings often works best. The classic cheese or pepperoni pizza provides a nice neutral base that won't compete with bold wing flavors. Alternatively, if you're going for milder wings, you can be more adventurous with your pizza toppings.

Popular Pizza Pairings

Based on our delivery data, these are the most popular pizza choices when ordered alongside wings:

1. Classic Pepperoni - The slightly spicy pepperoni complements most wing flavors
2. Canadian - Bacon and mushroom provides a more savory profile
3. Veggie - The fresh vegetables offer a nice contrast to rich wing flavors
4. Hawaiian - The sweet pineapple can balance spicy wings beautifully
5. Meat Lovers - For serious appetites, this protein-packed option stands up to any wing

Selecting the Perfect Wings

Wings are incredibly versatile, coming in a variety of flavors and heat levels. Here's how to choose the best ones for your combo:

Heat Level Considerations

At Pizza73, we offer several heat levels for our wings. When pairing with pizza, consider these guidelines:

• Mild: Perfect for gatherings where not everyone enjoys spicy food, these pair well with any pizza
• Medium: Our most popular choice, offering flavor with a moderate kick
• Hot: For heat lovers, these wings make a strong statement and pair nicely with milder pizzas
• Fire: Our spiciest option is for true heat enthusiasts - balance these with a cheese or veggie pizza

Flavor Profiles

Beyond heat levels, wing flavors can dramatically change your pairing experience:

• Buffalo: The classic tangy, spicy sauce that started it all
• BBQ: Sweet and smoky, these wings pair wonderfully with meat-topped pizzas
• Honey Garlic: A Canadian favorite that works beautifully with veggie or Hawaiian pizzas
• Salt & Pepper: A simpler flavor that won't overwhelm complex pizza toppings
• Teriyaki: Sweet and savory, these pair nicely with simpler pizzas like cheese or pepperoni
