if you like their pan pizza a lot then you will like these. there is that type of crust in basically every bite. i haven't decided whether i feel like there's enough bang for the buck yet though. feels like they're cheating a little bit in terms of pizza per square inch of the box.

More delicious crispy golden crust per square inch, less mediocre pizza topping per square inch  :billdance:

I think we discussed this previously but has anyone used a Pizza Steel?



I've been meaning to have my steel fabricators cut me up a piece of 1/4" steel to try out, but never got around to it.   maybe I'll try to get it done...

Red Baron meat lover's pizza, pull out of the oven after 10 minutes, sprinkle on Frank's hot sauce, let it finish. Very large glass of milk on the side.

I'm partial to the Sausage and Pepperoni.  Parmesan and red pepper flakes before cooking. Cook with no preheat directly on rack, oven at 425, takes 21 minutes.  Crispy bottom crust, golden brown cheese on top. :lick:  Definitely milk on the side.

EMAWblast how much pizza would you say you get in the ten sliders compared to Pizza Hut's other pizza sizes? Is it equivalent to a large?

I don't know, never got the pizza.  Stuck with the hamburger and fries combo mostly on the rare times I ate at the cafeteria. Perks of living across from campus is I could just go home for lunch.

Isn't there a toxicity issue to watch out for here?  I mean, I don't think it can be just any old type of steel.  Could be wrong?  :dunno:

My milk glasses are 30-ouncers.  I have three.  Used to have four, but one went missing and I never found it again.  I don't have a link.  I always fill them right to the brim.  Sometimes a little milk spills over, but that's just the price of doing business when you want the full thirty.

You may have accidentally drank your glass when you were chugging milk and didn't notice.

I used to do the Tobasco on the pie while still cooking, but I found that while not as hot on the mouth that your ass really burns later when you poop.  Probably because you can really go overboard on account of the reduced mouth burn.  You really pay on the back end though.  I've stopped doing that obviously.  Also, I do not like Franks.  Wanted to, but I'm a dedicated Tobasco man on the pies.

in over all square inches of pizza, it's probably pretty similar to a large pizza. however, as 8mp said, there is much more crust, and far less sauce/cheese/toppings per square inch than a regular pizza. i would definitely advise having a dipping sauce available for all of the crust that you will be eating.

if large pizzas were still 10 dollars, it wouldn't be a contest, go with the large pizza. but with large pizzas costing a little bit more, i'm a little torn as to what the better value is.

Pretty sure Mrs Bread threw it away.  She doesn't like my milk glasses for some reason.  Trying to get rid of them by attrition, but I know what she's about.

i should have clarified, 10 dollar ANY TOPPINGS pizza. i load mine up.

but in terms of $8 2-topping large vs. $10 3-topping sliders, i will definitely go with the $8 2-topping large.

had a pie at grinders a couple weeks ago. was delish.

i've eaten a pie at these kc eateries: grinders, d'bronx, minsky's, waldo, italian delight, pizza shop..

where else should i go? what am i missing out on?

i love grinders.  missing from your list is-
original pizza
spin
johnny jo's
bella napoli
jj's

 :rolleyes:

johnny jo's has fallen out of favor with me since i first started eating there.  gotta be honest with you pizza bros, a few times it sucked.  then i was like, eff that crap- i'm not walking over there for a pie if it's going to suck so i quit going.  then they closed, then they reopened.  who knows, bros but be careful with Johnny Jo's because you just don't know what level (1-10) pie that he's going to give you.  once it will be a 10, next time a 3, skip ahead a few times then it's a 4, then a 1 then another 10 and an 8.  still have his magnet on my fridge though- ol' time's sake i suppose  :D

do you know what the term "fabrication of the truth" means because you should get it tattooed across your forehead, honestly i don't think i've read a bigger lie on the entire net.

30oz milk glass.  k.  :lol:  sure thing bread- sure thing.    :bait:

can't argue with that. the three times ive been there I'd give it a 10,6,10. The knots (little bread butter things) are pretty good too. Plus, the guy's high school and Avila fb uniforms are framed and on the wall - which is funny.

I guess I just don't know of many other places capable of 10s in KC.
