I prefer the pizza I make from scratch to anything bought, but if I had to go with a favorite, it'd be Pizza Hut (meat lovers' stuffed crust). Dominos is the worst.
Dunno if it's "good", I like it though. Flour and dry yeast in a roughly 3cup:2tsp ratio, change amounts according to how much dough you want. 4 cups is generally enough for a decent size pizza and a bit of bread on the side with the leftover. Put the flour in a pile on a countertop, make a crater in the middle & put in the yeast, sprinkle a bit of salt everywhere. Throw in a tsp or so of crisco, margarine, or butter. Start adding lukewarm water a bit at a time and mixing in the flour. It will be messy, you'll eventually be able to work it into a ball, you want it dry enough so that it's not sticky. Knead it well, put it in a bowl (use nonstick spray or coat it with olive oil first), cover it and set it aside for about a half hour, then you're ready to roll it to desired thickness & line a pan with it. Much easier than canning your own tomato sauce, though that's worth it too, imo 🙂
When you make the pizza, in addition to the obvious (sauce & cheese), don't forget minced fresh garlic, grated parmesan or romano cheese, and olive oil. I like black pepper and oregano too, but they're optional.
