I thought you had an Ooni and a home oven w/pizza steel.
Who? Me? I think you are confusing me with Kaido?

I HATE cooking! Not because of laziness. It's a form of self preservation. Generally I like what I cook so I would end up making too much yummy stuff and then I would gain weight and even bring back my diabetes from remission.

Much simpler and safer to just order it. That way, the cost of it keeps me from eating too much.

Are you guys delusional? Dominos, Pizza Hut, Papa Johns... etc... are at the bottom of the barrel. And why are we posting frozen pizza? C'mon guys. You can do better!

I picked up a Presto Pizzazz & have been field-testing frozen pizzas lately. It's a fun toy!

I liked Papa John's the first time I ordered it. However, on subsequent orders, I felt it was too greasy. They do seem to be generous with toppings.

My last Papa Johns experience was kinda disastrous. I ordered almost 7 pizzas coz they had some prize draw going for about $250,000 and that many pizzas got me three entries into the prize draw. I shared it with everyone in the office. Unfortunately, maybe they used very old refrigerated cheese or something because next day, I got a really bad sinus headache which lasted 3 to 4 days and horrible as always because I cannot work or sleep properly and I even lose my appetite. This usually happens when I eat dairy that's been frozen for too long.

Papa John's is too saucy for my tastes.

As far as aged cheese goes, I found out that the root of my issues was histamine intolerance. Sinus issues were the bane of my existence for most of my life! I've been on treatment for 3 years now...I never take a single clog-free/runny-nose-free day for granted!!

The Only Neapolitan Pizza Dough Tutorial You Need:

I'm not an overly huge fan of Neapolitan pizza. The only place I really like it from is Zeneli's, which is oddly enough on Wooster Street here in CT: (home of New Haven-style pizza, which is my favorite!)

That Frank Pepe looks allright. Frankly, "crispy" is all i need to hear.

I even found a guy in Miami Beach that makes roman-style pizza alla teglia, Blozzom 7341 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33141, United States

nice crispy browned & spotted base, crispy pan edges, fluffy on top - excellent.

Their coal-fired oven is 100 years this year!



Sally's is next door & was opened by Frank Pepe's nephew (the new Sally's in Wethersfield is better tho, but the other Pepe's locations aren't as good). Modern Pizza & Zuppardi’s are also worth checking out if you're ever up here! I'm fortunate to commute all over the state, so I go on mini "pizza tours" anytime I have a free minute lol.

ehhh ... i appreciate the sentiment, but i doubt i'll set foot on US soil ever again.

Last time even just the grilling at the airport was more 'murica than i'm willing to deal with. I'm just taking a connecting flight back to civilization, lady, i don't care for your immigration questions.
