Kinda OT; Enough of the Pizza bashing
I'm sick and tired of all the pizza bashing around these parts. No food offers you more bang for your buck, period. Book it. End of story. Pizza, in all of its forms, whether it be original, New York, frozen, Chicago, Detroit, CPK, or some other concoction never fails to be delicious and nutritious.
So yeah, maybe you shouldn't eat a whole large pizza every night. I do it six nights a week and I'm pushing 400 pounds - is that because of the pizza or because I like to drink maple syrup for breakfast? It doesn't matter. Don't blame pizza for my glandular problems. Or Alex Mitchell and his gut. The pizza is not to blame here.
That's all.
Don't forget about St. Louis!
didn't think anybody knew of st. louis style pizza outside of st. louis! no doubt, the best.
what is st. louis pizza? i need to have it, now.
It's thin pizza topped with mozzarella and "provelle" cheese. Some people really like it. I'm not sure what distinguishes provelle cheese, but it tastes a bit like kraft American singles to me.
I have had it a few times (Emo's Pizza), and it was like eating cheese covered poo. I thought there was no way anyone could ruin a pizza. St. Louis proved me wrong
dont now if THAT bad...had it before. need to ADD strength. want CHICAGO over that. no sugarcoat.
Maybe if you had an Imo's pizza, rather than one from Emo's (whatever that is), I'd find you more credible. Also, why would you eat poo-flavored food multiple times?

Cards:Cubs :: Michigan:Ohio State
P.S.
No
When the Cards and Cubs go to war over Toledo then you can make such asinine and irrational statements. Until then balls on your chin.
Well, I'm in KC these days, so I'm close enough.
It really depends on what kind of pizza it is and what system you have for your pizza. If your system requires mobility, then a big, meaty Chicago deep dish might not be right for you.
3-star pizzas lacking top-end savoriness shouldn't be sought after regardless though.
Nice reference to an epic thread from the haloscan days. Approved.
Can someone please find the video from last season where Molk said he eats a frozen, oven baked pizza most nights to keep his weight up? I saw it on Inside Michigan Football, and it was on MGoBlue.com at one point.
+100
Chicago deep dish makes all others inferior!
If Barwis tells him to eat pizza every night, then we should be glad he is listening to Barwis. After all, who are we to question Barwis?
Has anyone made homemade pizza with crescent roll dough? It is good. Make sure to bake it for like 5 minutes first or it will not cook all the way through.
1* = Tony's
- Terrible crust, weak sauce, cheese is kinda bland, not very big.
2* = Jack's
- Has potential, but most of the time is just too thin and crispy to really satisfy your taste buds
3* = Digorno/Freschetta
- The best of the frozen pizzas. Plump, lots of variety available, easy to cook, plenty of cheese and crust. Cook up nicely. With some extra work, can really be a 4* meal if you surround it with the right type of ranch dressing and bread side.
4* = Marino's in Jackson
- I think it's all the sugar they dump in the sauce. Delicious. Eat it all day
5* = Any chicago style stuffed pizza
- The Tebow of Pizzas
The best of the frozen pizzas is CPK's BBQ chicken pizza. Hands down the highest ceiling of anyone at that position.
It's in Lemming's top 20.
sorry, i don't have the film on that one yet. we'll try to include it in the next set of rankings.
The best pizza in the world is on Hilton Head Island, SC at NYC pizza.
about a slice of Pizza Hut deepdish containing 600 hard calories. My reaction? Awesome. I use a triple whopper as a barometer for what NOT to eat, so if you have less calories than that...you're okay in my book.
CROSSCHIPS!
A notable omission is Red Baron. I have them pegged at the 2-3* range. Need to add bulk to their frame and work on box level.
It your avatar a pizzone?
Digiorno is the 5* of all frozen pizza!
Windsor Pizza is the best. Armandos, Angelos, or Arcada. All kick some serious ass in the Pizza department.
Pizza deserving a pink slip: Cottage Inn Takeout for Alex Mitchell.
Pizza who should keep his job: Frozen, oven-baked pizza for David Molk.
Nobody should ever ever ever be buying frozen oven-bake pizza from the store. At cheapest, they are $6 and have average taste.
A Little Caesar's hot-n-ready is $5 for a large pepperoni, and while it's the worst of all delivery pizzas, it beats any pre-baked turd pizza.
I sometimes find the Digorno class to be better than a Hot and Ready. Also, I've somehow had to wait for Hot and Readys ... which .. like ...what the fuck Little Caesars? So I've gone the frozen route before.
And you can get them cheaper - Jack's and company are like $3 and often on sale. But they are terrible, and I'd rather eat cheese covered cardboard.
The Caesar does not delivery and knowing some who works at one those pizza's are under the lights usually half hour or longer!
English Mothafucka, DO YOU SPEAK IT?
No Hablo Ingles
If you cut coupons and buy when on sale you can get a four cheese Red Baron for about $2.50. The freezer in my garage is full of them.
yeah, but what's the diameter and thickness of a Red Baron pizza?
I am way fuller when I smash a Hot-N-Ready. It would probably be best to weigh them, rather than measure the diameter and thickness.
So size does matter
Little Caesar's Crazy Bread is the shit. Nothing gets you Mitchell-ized like Crazy Bread. And yes, that is a good thing.
Hogwash. On sale, I can usually get a Freschetta for about $5.50 even with inflated Chicago grocery store prices, and last week I picked up frozen Home Run Inn uncured pepperoni pizzas for $4 each. Their top-end savoriness blows Caeser's out of the water.
Not to mention Caeser's doesnt exist here. Cheapest pizza you can find is Pizza Hut, which only has offers from Grand Valley, Wisconsin Whitewater and Indiana State.
Time out there Yinka
First - there are a lot of Little Caeser's in Chicago. There is one on Addison right by Western (near Lane Tech).
Also - Home Run is way over-rated. 4* recruit, almost OMG shirtless, but unmotivated and destined not live up to potential. I think it is the funky aftertaste that gets me.
The best pizza from a national chain is a Stuffed Crust Meat Lover's from Pizza Hut. There's no debate about this, I won't allow it.
Someone needs to mention Jet's, though, so I'm going to. Jet's. It's the ultimate cheap party pizza. Fantastic stuff.
Jet's is fucking fantastic and now I'm going to eat it for dinner
did you get points for that? I've been trying to figure out how the points system works.
right now, you get a point for every post.
2 points for a new post, but let's keep that a secret.
Don't forget the Jet's bread! cheesy garlicky goodness
Jet's is a very good party pizza, but shooters has the best party pizza around my place. It is delicious and 30 fucking slices doesn't get better than that!
Meijer's sells 2 large frozen pizza for $5. They're pretty good in my book. You can find them near the meats.
its either the Jets Hawaiian (square) or a fancy take n bake from Papa Murphys.
Why Papa Murphys?
you mean. Are you asking why I waste my time paying someone else to make but not bake a pizza for me, rather than picking it up from a normal place?
If so, the answer is easy. Toppings. It would probably cost me $18 to make their herb mediterranean chicken pizza with feta, and sun dried tomatoes and olive oil at home. I'm not sure I could get another place to make it and bake it for me, and if I could get them to they'd probably charge me $20, instead of the $9 that Papa Murphys does.
Not only that but I can pick it up on the way home from work, go mow the yard, take the dog for a run, take a shower, do whatever and bake it when I'm ready. I don't have to leave the house again or pay a delivery guy.
The closest one to me is in Canton, but it is worth the drive.
