Pizza fight

[SillyOctpuss]

OK so after @Orvillain's controversial admission to enjoying pineapple on a pizza how do you order yours?

I'll start with a deep pan, stuffed crust, double pepperoni and olive.

 

[TheTrueZoltan!]

Fresh vegetables. Best pizza in the whole fvckin' world @ Pizzeria Capricciosa, Dortmund.

With lots of pickles, of course. Hold everything else.

 

[Holden Afart]

Typical NY style but with maybe 30 to 40 percent extra-sharp provolone and completely covered with pepperoni on every square millimeter. Sauce on the side for dipping the "handle". Yum!

 

[Bruce]

Well done.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

Marinara cut with BBQ sauce, mozzarella, Spinach, chopped broccoli, Corn, bell peppers, onions, garlic and lemon wedges.

 

[Rock Chalk]

With everything except green pepper, + extra cheese.

For me, the dough, sauce, and cheese are the stars of the show. Straight out of a brick or coal fired oven, if done right, is perfection IMO.

Other toppings are just bonus points from there.

I was with you up until Mozzarella and then I had to jump off the Kenivel pizza train.

Not my first choice but the reality is I have to compromise with the other 4 people in the house. If I had my way there'd be olives and provalone, and probably more veggies but the actual reality is I try to stay away from bread and cheese if at all possible.

I'll double down on my post from the original thread, Ham/Pineapple, even better cold the next morning!!!!!!
for those of you that never grilled pineapple in the summer, your missing a a real threat. The sugars in fruit get caramelized and
add a complexity to the sweetness of fruit.

provalone

A very underrated pizza cheese!

 

[laxu]

Depends on the place. This is my go-to from a pizza place close to me:

Mozzarella, ventricina, nduja, chili, garlic and a little bit of fresh parsley.

NY Style is my preference, but I'll generally eat just about any pizza- the less hipster the better.

Preferred NY style baseline test - Cheese only, order by the slice and reheat for a few minutes in the oven. A little oregano and very light garlic powder. If that's correct, then order with whatever toppings you want for the next slice.

I can tell if the pizza is going to be like what I grew up on just by the smell when I walk into the place, next visual clue is the oven, final visual cue is the pizza guys hand tossing and kneading the dough where everyone in the place can see it.

 

[TravisG406]

Yeah, I'm adding pineapple to any pizza. Haven't tried it on white sauce ones...yet

That works really well with Pears too.

Pears and prosciutto are delicious on pizza.

I've never put Grilled Pears on a pizza, I'll have to try it. I've just served them with steak or on a burger.

Pear, prosciutto, arugula, and gorgonzola go great together.
