Wait, Can You Actually Order A Chicken Bake Pizza At Costco?

The combo was conjured up on TikTok

The legendary chicken bake pizza originated from a TikTok video by Allen Shapiro (@therussianonig). It was posted just a week after April Fool's Day, which might be coincidental or could hint at the creator's aim to pull off a late prank in honor of the playful holiday. Regardless of Shapiro's motives, the footage of him unveiling a Kirkland pizza box to reveal what appears to be a chicken and ranch pizza certainly captured a lot of attention. The video has amassed one million views and nearly 30,000 likes.

Many viewers flocked to the comments to share their attempts at the hack, where Shapiro suggests giving workers the code "69247" to obtain a chicken bake pizza. Given the potential double entendre of Shapiro's code, it was not surprising to see that those who tried the trick were largely unsuccessful. Several Costco employees also weighed in. One commented, "California Costco employee here, we don't make these lol, but it looks good." Another added, "I work at Costco, we don't use codes like this..."

With employees refuting the pizza's existence, combined with Shapiro's eyebrow-raising code and the questionable timing of the video, it seems safe to conclude that the chicken bake pizza combination is likely a myth.

How to make the chicken bake pizza yourself

If you're already fantasizing about a chicken bake pizza, don't worry! You can always make it yourself. In fact, there are a couple of ways to achieve this. You can start from scratch by using a copycat Costco chicken bake recipe. Just mix marinara sauce with your favorite pizza toppings, whether that's pepperoni, sausage, onions, or peppers. Alternatively, if you want a traditional pizza pie, grab some premade pizza dough, spread it with marinara, and add the essential chicken bake ingredients like chicken, cheese, Caesar dressing, and bacon before baking it all in the oven.

For those seeking a quicker option, you can also pick up all your ingredients directly from Costco. Buy your preferred pizza along with the famous chicken bake from the warehouse. From there, you can decide how to combine the two. This could involve pouring the contents of your chicken bake onto the pizza or wrapping the chicken bake in a slice or two. Either way, it might get a little messy and won't be the most visually appealing, but it will certainly let you enjoy the incredible flavors of both menu items.
