Took me 6 hours today to get to the top of r/pizza. By 2 o'clock I was at the top spot. That lasted to at least 6:00. I didn't think I would do as well as last week. I'm close to 400 at the moment.

I wish I could've shared the pizza I had today with each and every one of you. It wasn't from a pizza place. It was an Arabic restaurant. The crust was not too thin and not too thick. It was so soft and chewy. The tomato sauce on it had the perfect amount of sweetness. It was literally covered in cheese with bits of BBQ chicken scattered throughout. And that was it. No other toppings. Just tomato sauce, BBQ chicken pieces and cheese. So unbelievably delicious. Keep it simple. It works.

There's a place in Omaha called Lighthouse Pizza & Fries that I quite liked the blend of spices they used for their spicy chicken topping (uses some form of roast chicken, not sure if you mean roast/grilled chicken or actual BBQ chicken since non-Americans often use "BBQ" incorrectly). But I'd probably need some kind of fattier topping to go along with it, pizza with only chicken on it doesn't make the grade.

The cheese layer was thick enough that it didn't make me want anything more.

Sadly, that particular pizza turned out to be a fluke (probably someone made it who usually doesn't make it at my usual time of ordering). I haven't gotten the same quality of pizza from that place after that

I saw this on the Nellyville Reddit - It's instructions for homemade Saint Louis Style pizza:

You'll need to buy or more likely make your own Provel, which is a local cheese-adjacent product:

If I'm going to eat pizza, I want New York style with the authentic cursing in Italian in the back, but some people here swear by this stuff.

This is my 25th year doing pizza & I'm STILL learning all the time! My latest interest is this half-pizza, half-calzone BEAST!

Detroit-style is where it's at! Grandma's slice + cupping pepperoni + ridiculous cheese crust = heaven!!

No-knead focaccia pizza is pretty decent!

Focaccia Pizza

If you love focaccia and love pizza, combine them together and make a Focaccia Pizza! It’s crazy easy to make with a no-knead dough creating a perfect

Oh, I like that smoked Gruyere I see there for the Provel. I've never bought Gruyere but I had a sample last time I hit Costco (~3 weeks ago) and it was really delicious! I didn't ask or buy but should have at least asked what it was. I have Gruyere on my shopping list for Costco, will go in 2 days. I figure they are probably selling two kinds, just a guess, a Costco exclusive (Kirkland) and probably a more expensive one.

I've never slipped a pizza off a pizza peel onto an oven surface. I do have a thick piece of steel I could use for that, have a pizza peel, but I like the results I'm getting from my 12" pizza screens.

The pizza I made last night was baked perfectly. It's a challenge for me to bake pizza perfectly. Practice makes perfect, if I do it enough and frequently enough I usually get it pretty right.

Just gonna leave this here:

Just gonna leave this here:

I won't leave a comment there but will here: It's a mistake to cut/chop things too finely on a pizza. You want to distinguish flavors as you go. I cut chunks of cheese that are not too small, pieces of meat too, etc.

Yes, Detroit-style is a perfectly cromulent entry.

My kid never liked Red Baron, he was team Tombstone. The $8 Fantastic 4 in 1 from Little Caesar's is surprisingly edible for being so cheap. I'd just get the pepperoni and jalapeno next time.

 

[nakedfrog]

I ate a lot of Tombstone through the years, up until they changed the crust a few years back. The only Red Baron I'll pick up when it's on adequate sale ($2.50ish) is the "Brick Oven" variety.

July is "frozen pizza trials" month for my Pizzazz, Some of the Red Barons have been pretty good, but this one below is the most bland out of any frozen pizza to date lol:

That's entirely believable!

 

[igor_kavinski]

Do feta cheese and honey with black olives belong on a pizza? What if juicy pieces of steak were added also?

Now THAT'S a cheesy commercial

They provide honey for crust-dipping with "Colorado style" pizza. It's no worse than barbecue sauce on pizza, but I don't want my pizza to be that sweet, I don't even like it when the base tomato sauce is too sweet. I don't think steak is a well-suited pizza topping either.
(I did try the crust and honey when I was at Beau Jo's pizza).

But it's ultimately your pizza, you can fuck it up however you want.
