Frozen Pizza.

IMHO, for the money you spend on a frozen pizza, ya may as well go get a real pizza.

we have a pizzaz pizza cooker that works
really well on frozen pizzas.
we get the california pizza ovens
thin white pizza.

I used to love the Celentano's frozen pizza,that square pie with a little extra olive oil on top baked till the crust was a golden brown,was always a favorite,it's a shame that they left Verona,NJ.

Easiest, best pizza: I buy fresh pizza dough rounds from my local pizza shop. They have already "risen" and are cheap! $2.00 bucks each! I add my own cheeses and toppings and bake at 500 on a stone in my oven.
They come out just as good and crusty as the ones I would have to pay $12-15.00 for at the pizza shop.
And, I control the amount and type of cheeses and toppings. No more paying $1.00 each for additional toppings.
I usually buy 3-4 fresh dough rounds at a time. what I don't make right away, I freeze for another time.

Anyone know if Betzios is still around?  I have not sen them or the local store brands they made (shop rite, foodtown) in my area in some time.  Hoping they did not go out of business.

I don't really like frozen pizza, BUT, the best I've found is Home Run Inn.  No preservatives, and the crust has that "buttery" quality that you sometimes find in Chicago pizzas.  http://www.homeruninnpizza.com/frozen-pizza/
 
I used to love the Stouffer's French bread "pizzas," but they've changed the sauce and I don't care for it as much now.  My favorite version was the pepperoni and mushroom, which is not distributed in Minnesota, but which I could buy in South Carolina when I visited my father there. All I can find here is Deluxe and Pepperoni.

I haven't had Home Run Inn for years but I remember it being pretty good.  It's been a long time since I've seen it in the store, but that could just be related to which stores I shop at.

Believe it or not, Target brand pizza is pretty good.......
 

I've never met a frozen "pizza" i could love, or even say was "good"  I agree with the food guy, for what you pay for some frozen fast food "pizza"...add a few bucks and get the real thing(from a real Italian Pizzeria(not a chain). Or like twinwillow said...get real pizza dough...and do it yourself. I guess it takes all kinds. They make(and I presume sell) pre made frozen pancakes and egg sandwiches, and even pre cooked bacon slices...so I guess people will buy pre made and flash frozen pizza....don't get it...unless you live where real pizza isn't sold. My sister's nearest pizza is 20 miles away...and it's a Dominos(God!!). I understand,then, buying a frozen Pie. Here in the NorthEast, you're never far from the real thing!!!!!

Lately, I've been enjoying Wholefoods' "365" brand of frozen pizza. They're very good!
I like the Pepperoni and their Quattro Formaggi the best. Only, $4.99 each!

Believe it or not, my 9 and 11 year old grandsons like a plain cheese pizza from Food City for $1.00.  I have bought them more expensive pizza's before but they would not eat them.  I buy them  for their use but on occasion I use one and I kick them up a bunch of notches with a little more pizza sauce, green and jalapeno peppers, onions,  mozzerella cheese and pepperoni on top.  I have to bake them almost twice as long with a preheated oven at 425F.  I oil the bottom and they brown and get crispy very good.  They are not very big but two slices with a evening cocktail ain't bad.  The slices are not very large but they sorta make a great horse derver.

Try Corky's in Arlington. I'm from Rome NY, an Italian American community and Corky's is better than any I had there.

I had coupons for Digorno's, so I got 2. They are absolutely terrible. Regular price is about $7. I can get 10 slices of Ohio Valley style for that! That said, I love Tombstone pizzas. When I was a kid, my grandmother would make me a whole pie for a snack before dinner. You have to make the crust crunchy, but not burn the cheese. The Stouffer's French bread white pizzas are good too.

There's a local pizza shop here (Augustines) who sells frozen pizza in grocery stores and supposedly Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. Sweet sauce, and it's pretty good. Odd crust, as its thick and flaky kind of like a deep dish, but not the same.

Weirdest cooking instructions I've ever seen though. I'm doing this by cooking it once, so it's probably a bit off. Thaw pizza, preheat oven to 400, put pizza on cookie sheet, pour olive oil on top, bake for 10 min, cut into slices, bake for 10 minutes longer.

One other thing. I was at a bar once where they made pizza burgers. Big deal right? Burger with mozzarella, sauce and pepperoni. This place used those frozen square slices as the bun for a plain burger. Toppings were added to the burger. It was very, very good!

I used to love Celentano products. Haven't seen them on the store shelves in years, though.
 
 
 
 

I'm no fan of frozen pizza, but occasionally I'll pick up a Home Run Inn or Stouffer's French Bread for dinner. These are the only two decent brands of frozen pizza I've found so far.
