Where I live it’s just the same old chains and two or three independents with even worse pizza. I ended up learning to make my own over the last two years and can honestly say that I make the best pizza where I live and aware of. Quality dough, sauce, and ingredients. We haven’t bought from any place else unless it is for a large gathering.



Just a pepperoni but this is what they look like mostly. I do a bbq bacon chicken, a Philly cheesesteak and several others. I cook in an Ooni oven and can still cook in a home oven like the one above was a home oven cook.

I mostly make my own dough NY or Neapolitan styles but found a place that sell some really good dough balls for those spur of the moment cooks. Wish I knew how easy this was years ago.

Good lord, you people suggesting Grimaldis are nuts. You're associating Central Green with the pizza. I'm amazed at how much take out comes out of the place, especially given the pizzas are twice (or more) the cost of Little Caesars. $35 for a pie that's $15 at Little Caesars? Eh, no. I'm not in Italy.

Pepperonis (depending on which location; I've loved the pizza for years, and when there was a management takeover, it went to no bueno, and then bounced back) is superior, and far lower in cost than Grimaldi's.

It's been renamed but I *think* the pizza place across from No Label is called the Pizza Shoppe. It was good, especially for cauliflower crust pizza before at least two rebrandings.

we'd done the same. Once you get the dough prep sorted out, its awesome.

We enjoy a nice evening with the Ooni fired up and wine on the back porch watching the deer at the feeder.

We always throw in a taco pizza that gets eaten first.

Is that the one where the kids can make there own? I have been told it is good but never been with my two hellyuns.


For the guys making them yourself, are you buying the crust/bread pre-made? Any recommendations on ingredients?

You don't actually "make it yourself". Think Subway for pizza. The ingredients are right in front of you and you choose. I always do meat. Its really good and your kids will be fine. There's always families with kids of all ages when we go. Try it out you'll like it.
