Dallas-based Pizza Hut introduces pizza not only slathered with cheese but with cheese jammed into crust
Dallas-based Pizza Hut introduces Stuffed Crust Pan Pizza -- pan pizza crust stuffed with melted cheese.
"The arrival of Stuffed Crust Pan Pizza is the biggest news to hit our Pan Pizza in nearly three decades," said Brian Niccol, Pizza Hut chief marketing officer. "I didn't think it was possible to make our Pan Pizza any better, but with the addition of a ring of melted cheese stuffed deep into the crust, we've created a pizza that hits the jackpot."
Stuffed Crust Pan Pizza is Pizza Hut's classic Pan Pizza with a ring of cheese baked deep into the crust. Available for $10.99 for a one topping, Stuffed Crust Pan combines the warm golden Pizza Hut Pan Pizza crust with a ring of gooey cheese stuffed deep into the crust. In 1980, Pizza Hut introduced the Pan Pizza, which changed the pizza world forever and became Pizza Hut's signature recipe. Fifteen years later, Stuffed Crust flipped the pizza eating world as we knew it upside down -- literally, inviting pizza fans to eat their pizza crust first. In 2009, they have joined forces.

Weak. I was hoping for crusts stuffed with butter.

No worries James. You can get deep fried butter at the state fair. (gag)

nina, i think the revolutionary twist here -- the thing that makes it "the biggest news to hit Pan Pizza in nearly three decades" -- is the fact that it's a PAN pizza? which i believe might be a flatter pizza with a smaller crust? which now will have a ring of cheese threaded within? i always get my pizza without cheese
james scott, hilarious

Yeah, not exactly what I had envisioned. To be honest, it kinda weirds me out:
