Enjoy Our Delicious Flatbread Creations For National Pizza Day

National Pizza Day falls on February 9, and you can celebrate right here at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive with one of our amazingly delicious flatbread creations. People have been making flatbreads to enjoy for over 5,000 years. We've taken that tradition and proven that the best BBQ restaurant in Des Moines can also make a fantastic flatbread!

Most pizza is made from yeasted flatbread and typically topped with tomato sauce and cheese, then baked in an oven, sometimes with additional toppings added. Flatbread pizza is generally made on a thinner, crispier crust using lighter toppings and sauce that is most often not tomato sauce. The best part about our recipes is the fact that most of them contain our mouthwatering, hickory-smoked meats!

Crab Rangoon
Wobbly Boots' own crab rangoon filling slathered on our flatbread pizza crust, topped with our 5-cheese pizza blend and then finished with fried wontons and a sweet chili drizzle. Always a customer favorite!

B-L-T
We start with our thin flatbread pizza crust, spread our homemade cheese sauce on that, add our 5-cheese pizza blend, and then top it all with smoked ham, bacon crumbles, lettuce, & tomatoes. It's deliciously drizzled with ranch dressing before serving.

Buffalo Bacon Chicken & Jalapeno
Our flatbread covered in our chipotle buffalo sauce and topped with grilled chicken breast, bacon, & jalapenos plus our 5-cheese pizza blend and finished with ranch dressing.

BBQ Brisket
Our homemade BBQ sauce spread over our flatbread pizza crust and topped with slow-smoked brisket, red onion, and a combination of our 5-cheese pizza blend & cheddar jack cheese. An outstanding flavor that can't be beat!!

Spinach Artichoke Chicken
Our homemade spinach artichoke dip generously spread over our flatbread and topped with a 5-cheese mozzarella blend, chicken, diced tomatoes, and finished with Parmesan cheese.

Reading those recipes is enough to convince you that our family-friendly restaurant in Des Moines knows how to do more than just great BBQ. Of course, tasting these culinary creations is an even better way to know that the next time you're craving pizza, we can cure that hunger!

We've got some great appetizers to enjoy before digging into your flatbread from the Boot, and they also go great with one of our fresh side salads, or better yet, share a flatbread and one of our meal-sized salads with a friend. And of course, if you're over 21, nothing washes down pizza better than an ice-cold beer! We've got all of your favorites in bottles, plus 18 taps which include some of Iowa's best craft beers. If you join us during Happy Hour every Monday-Friday from 3-6 pm, you'll even get those tasty brews at a special price!

Come on in this Friday, February 9 and celebrate National Pizza Day at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse. Don't worry if Friday isn't good for you, because we're happy to serve you one of our amazing flatbreads anytime that you like, any day of the week!

Is Flatbread Different From Pizza?

Last week our Wobbly Boots Roadhouse blog posed the question, "Is a wrap a sandwich?" This week we were curious about another one of our menu items that could be called by another name. Are the delicious flatbreads we serve at our family friendly restaurant in Des Moines considered pizza, or are they something else entirely?

As we told you last week, sandwiches and wraps have differing definitions, so technically there is a a difference between the two. Even though many people would love to argue that pizzas and flatbreads are not the same food, none of the research that we uncovered proved that as a fact. While toppings and types of crusts may differ, they actually are considered a similar dish.

Pizza is defined as a yeasted flatbread typically topped with tomato sauce and cheese and baked in an oven, commonly also topped with meats, vegetables, and condiments.

Flatbread "pizza" is generally made on a thinner, crispier crust using lighter toppings and sauce, most often not a tomato sauce.

So... those findings were a bit anti-climactic. Fortunately, the toppings we offer on our Flatbreads at Wobbly Boots BBQ are exciting enough to titillate any taste bud! Check out the amazing flavors we've created especially for you.
