Enjoy the Bold Flavors of the Uptown Reuben Pizza this March
(CINCINNATI, OH) March 11, 2025 – Dewey’s Pizza is bringing a bold twist to a deli classic with Uptown Reuben, a limited-time pizza packed with rich flavors and housemade ingredients. Inspired by the beloved Reuben sandwich, this unique pizza will be available for just two weeks at all 26 Dewey’s locations from March 11-24, 2025.
Crafted by Carter Stepp at Dewey’s O’Fallon, IL location, the Uptown Reuben pizza was one of four winning creations from the 2024 Dewey’s Pizza Recipe Battle. Stepp, a dedicated Dewey’s team member for the past seven years, has a passion for crafting new and exciting flavor combinations. Last year, the Recipe Battle brought fans the Peach Street pizza, a standout creation that showcased fresh basil, Vidalia onions, prosciutto, and wine-infused peaches. This year, Stepp continues that tradition with Uptown Reuben—a tribute to the iconic deli sandwich, which features olive oil, Cleveland Kitchen sauerkraut, mozzarella, corned beef, Swiss cheese, caraway seeds, housemade rye breadcrumbs, and housemade Thousand Island dressing after the bake.
“For the seven years I’ve worked at Dewey’s, I’ve had a special interest in creating new recipes and sharing them with the Dewey’s crew in O’Fallon. Whether it’s my honey sriracha chicken pizza or Italian beef pizza, the reactions from my fellow team members to my creations have warmed my heart,” shares Stepp.
The Uptown Reuben represents more than just a sandwich-inspired pizza—it’s a blend of flavors, culture, and creativity. “Uptown” signifies an elevated take on the classic Reuben, a nod to the metropolitan deli scene where the sandwich gained fame, and a subtle tribute to the musical influences that have embraced the term “Uptown” in hit songs over the years such as “Uptown Funk” and Billy Joel’s “Uptown Girl”.
For a perfect pairing, try the new Citrus & Beet salad, available March 18 – April 14, 2025. Made with field greens, sliced pickled red beets, house-roasted & sliced golden beets, goat cheese, roasted & salted sunflower kernels, and housemade orange zest vinaigrette, this fresh and vibrant salad complements the distinct flavors of the Uptown Reuben pizza.
Gluten-free crust and dairy-free cheese are also available upon request at all Dewey’s locations. Guests can purchase The Uptown Reuben pizza and the Citrus & Beet salad for dine-in, carryout, or online at deweyspizza.com.
