Friday OT - (Pizza) Cuttin it up!

[MeanDean]

Foldability is stupid. Pizza doesn't need to fold.

If Chicagoans need something to fold they have the Cubs in September.

But, this is not the point made by 2015. Actually, the Rocker pizza cutter shown here is much more specialized. 2015’s original point was all you need is a knife, just sharpen it.

Wherever we go to Costco, I will usually grab one of the Motor City Pizza Co. Pizzas. They're Detroit style deep dish, so they come in their own paper tray that you cook them in. We've found that if you spread a tablespoon or so of olive oil into the tray, and some garlic powder, before you cook it, the crust comes out very crispy and flavorful. Highly recommended.

I'm gonna try that. We eat MCPs occasionally, and it's fairly good, but your idea sounds like it could enhance.

I really thought 2015 would be the one to post this mindless take.

Yea.

My take is that deep dish pizza is a saucy hot tub for rats.

This whole debate is like saying you don't need a potato peeler because you have a knife. Sure, a knife will work, but which is the more efficient tool?

I think this debate is actually coming down to everyone on CF having dull ass knives if they can’t cut a pizza as quickly with a knife.

If you’ve never nuked a Totinos in the microwave and rolled it up and eaten it like a burrito have you even lived?

We were in Chicago a couple weekends ago, and decided to get pizza. I was thinking traditional Chicago deep dish or tavern style, but my wife suggested we try a place called Coalfire, up on the north side, that was supposed to be very good. Their pizza is closer to New York style, cooked with a coal oven, but not super floppy. We just got a basic pepperoni, with dollops of ricotta. It was fantastic, but not at all what you think of when you hear "Chicago style pizza"

Not the lure of Chicago but Fuel in Clarion does a nice coal fired pizza. I think some nights they throw steaks in there also. It has been a while since I've been there though.

How to sharpen your pizza cutter?

Why do pizza cutters tend to lose their sharpness? We have all dealt with a dull pizza cutter at some point during our lives. Some pizza cutters drag your cheese and toppings when you slice. Others don’t even slice through. You have to make back and forth cuts on your pizza making the process...

It's tough to sharpen a potato peeler man! Sometimes life comes at you fast.

I've never once considered sharpening a pizza wheel and it seems very unnecessary. We have one of the half circle style with a plastic blade that works fine.

For those who deem it necessary, it is not an insurmountable task.

Gross. The only way to cook a totinos is directly on the rack in the oven so the crust gets crispy and flaky. It's the best thing about a totinos.

This is fantastic

 

[Mr Janny]

Sounds similar to Black Sheep in the Twin Cities. Great stuff!

It's been a few years since I've had Black Sheep, but yeah that's a pretty good comparison

Yeah that was back in my young drunken days. I can afford Lotzza Motzza nuked burritos now.

I remember when I was young and a Totino's was a cheap way to fill up

IF I WANTED TO FOLD MY PIZZA I'D EAT A DAMN SANDWICH

AND

CARBS ARE THE ENTIRE POINT!

There is a guy who works every track meet I do and everytime they bring the pizza for the workers he takes 3 pieces, stacks them, and then announces he has a pizza sandwich. So at least one believes pizza is a sandwich. He is a big dude also.
