Via 313 Fires Up Brisket Pizza With Black’s Barbecue

Detroit-style pizza slingers Via 313 is teaming up with Black’s Barbecue for a limited new smoked meats pie. The Ol’ Smokey comes with the Lockhart barbecue joint’s brisket and barbecue sauce, along with pickled onions.

The pie is only available at Via 313’s brick and mortar restaurants in Oak Hill and north campus for the month of July. Partial proceeds from the north campus location on Guadalupe will go towards Helping Hand Home, while a portion of the sales from Oak Hill will be donated to Truth Be Told.

Via is hosting a pizza party at its Guadalupe location on Thursday, July 6, from 7 to 10 p.m. Tito’s Vodka will match all of its cocktails that are sold with donations to Helping Hand Home.

Via 313 isn’t new to the pizza collaboration game, like the Michi Ramen one, made with Sapporo bowl toppings, and the recent La Barbecue and Juniper pie with cured and smoked pork. Black’s Barbecue also teamed up with Swift’s Attic for barbecue burgers, which were layered with brisket and smoked beef patties, in July 2015.

Via 313 is also nearing the completion of its East 11th Street neighborhood bar and Detroit food truck (no pizza) Nickel City and Delray Cafe.
