Pizza night doesn't need a delivery app when you've got three restaurant-quality pies and the sides to match. This week, I'm building a full spread: California Pizza Kitchen's BBQ chicken and Thai chicken pizzas, Domino's spicy buffalo chicken pie, Pizza Hut's garlicky cheese sticks, and the cinnamon sticks that close out the meal right. Preheat the oven — this one's a whole event. 🍕

🍗 The Smoky BBQ Classic

​California Pizza Kitchen BBQ Chicken Pizza — Smoked Gouda, tender chicken, and tangy BBQ sauce on a crispy crust — this is the pizza that made CPK famous, and it's just as good coming out of your own oven. Sweet, smoky, and nothing like a plain cheese pie.

🌶️ The Sauce-Free Pie With Serious Heat

​Domino's Buffalo Chicken Pizza — Spicy buffalo chicken and melty American cheese, with no tomato sauce in sight — this copycat is a genuine pizza-night game-changer if you're used to plain pepperoni. It's the pie people ask about when you bring it to game day.

🥜 The Fusion Pizza That Shouldn't Work (But Does)

​California Pizza Kitchen Thai Chicken Pizza — Spicy peanut sauce, grilled chicken, and fresh vegetables melted under mozzarella — an unexpected combination that's been a CPK signature for decades. This is the pizza for the person at your table who says they're "not really a pizza person."

🧄 The Side Everyone Steals Before the Pizza Even Arrives

​Copycat Pizza Hut Cheese Sticks Recipe — Buttery, garlicky breadsticks loaded with melted cheese, pulled apart in long, stretchy strings. Make these while the pizzas bake, and they'll be gone before the timer even goes off.

🍩 The Sweet Finish

​Pizza Hut Cinnamon Sticks — Warm, sugared breadsticks with a side of sweet icing for dipping — the dessert that makes pizza night feel complete. This is the one that gets requested every single time.

🍕 In the Kitchen for Pizza Night

Three things that make a multi-pizza spread go smoothly.

🍕 OXO Lasagna Spatula — Wide, angled, and sturdy enough to lift a full pizza slice without folding it in half. It's built for lasagna, but it's honestly the best pizza server in the drawer.

🧁 Large Oven-Safe Baking Dish — Bake the cheese sticks and cinnamon sticks in the oven alongside the pizzas without fighting for space. One dish, zero juggling multiple pans in and out.

📄 Precut Parchment — Three pizzas means three rounds of cleanup unless you line the pan first. Precut sheets go down in seconds and cheese never sticks to the pan again.

🍕 Pizza Night, Fully Loaded

Three pizzas, garlicky cheese sticks, and a sweet finish — that's a full pizza night spread for less than the cost of one delivery order. Pick your favorite pie or make the whole lineup and call it a party.
