We've written about the magic combo of pizza and chicken wings before, but today we dive deeper with a full white paper for download to show the benefits of adding chicken wings to your pizza concept.

And it wasn’t until the 1994 Superbowl, when Domino’s Pizza first started promoting buffalo wings as a side to their pizza, that wings became a pizza industry staple.
