Favorite method to reheat leftover pizza

Toaster oven if available. Otherwise I go cold.

Hands down the best way is to use a cast iron pan. Put it in your oven and crank oven to say 400 degrees. Once preheated put pizza on cast iron and reheat for about 2-3 minutes. Really helps return crust to a crisp state.

Frying pan on low-med. Crust gets crispy and the toppings get just hot enough to melt the cheese.

Microwave

That's what I use. Heat up a nonstick pan and throw it on for a few minutes. A 30 second microwave beforehand will melt the cheese just enough, the pan ensures a crisp crust.

As mentioned I've always heard the stovetop method is the best.. with a bit of olive oil if available.

I prefer thin, often cracker crust pizza and sadly there is no returning to the original freshness. Not enough sauce to make up for drying out in the fridge.

I use this on top of the stove. After the bottom is crispy, I put it in the oven for a few minutes to soften the cheese. I haven't done this since I go the pizza baking steel, though. Now, I just heat the steel in the oven on about 450 or so, put the pizza on it and open the door a bit so the crust gets crisp and the cheese doesn't get recooked too much. I can get it pretty much like fresh baked that way.
