PIZZA Question. Are you one of those weirdos?

[SilverSpoon]

I make my own dough from a classic Neopolitan sytle pizzeria where I used to work in high school.
I make my pizzas on the famous Big Green Egg XL at approximately 650 degrees.  This past summer, I made a modified Margarita pizza with roasted garlic, kalamata olices, fresh Jersey tomatoes, Celtic sea salt, fresh ground black pepper, and some EVOO.  Wonderful.
I then added some fresh corn to the topping(s), which came out quite good.
Yet another concoction was adding prosciutto for just long enough so that it is wilted (about one minute).

You know what you are doing my friend.  I have seen a few Serious Eatsers use the Big Green Egg and they all have come out very well.

Adonis, when it comes to food, I know how to cook it.
The best steak I have eaten in my life was recently done on my green egg.
I got that bastard up to 700 degrees, with my 15 inch cast iron skillet inside that has been routinely seasoned with lard (better than any teflon leaching pan).
I had 2 dry aged prime ribeyes cut to 1 3/4 inch thick.
I brushed the steaks with EVOO, and rubbed them with very coarse ground black pepper (actually rolled with a rolling pin while in a Ziploc--an old chef showed me this years ago while I was bartending), and coarse Celtic sea salt.
Seared steaks for 3 minutes per side in the skillet.  Removed steaks from skillet and let roast over the charcoal for 4 1/2 minutes with the vents shut down.  Meat came out perfectly medium rare to medium.  For ribeyes I actually like the meat a little more done than normal, but never more than medium, this is to carmelize all of that wonderful beef fat (tallow).
If this were a strip steak or a porterhouse, I like it rare to medium rare.

I love Domino's pizza these days.  No one has better pizza then theirs to me at the moment.

I get 2 x large thin crust with pineapple, bacon, chicken and ham and other  with pineapple, bacon, beef and ham.   My Domino's by the house loads them with so much toppings i am always floored and impressed.

Noone comes close these days and i have tried tons.

Joe's in old town, NYPD pizza if I'm ordering from a chain, and the best i have found anywhere is Florentino's on Alma school and chandler blvd.

That being said....not impressed with the Italian cuisine in general...pizza included. That's one thing i miss about New York...one of the few

Never been to Joe's....never was a big fan of NYPD.  Every time I have had it the spices overpowered everything...or the crust was meh.  I do like an Oregeno's in Mesa....for some reason they do theirs better than others.  I have to go to Florentinos when I go back....there is a place in Glendale (I think) that was rated very good....can't for the life of me remember what it was though.

Worst pizza by far....Bostons near ASU

Do tell???

Can someone help answer this for me.  Why do some people eat Pizza and when they get to the crust, they don`t eat it and pile it up on the plate.  What is the reasoning behind this?

I have often wondered this very thing.  If it's a good quality pizza the crust is delicious.

For traditional Neapolitan Pizza,

"Keste" located on Bleeker Street NYC is hands down the best.

Adonis, a Regular oven doesn't come close to the heat required to properly cook pizza, hence the enthusiasts building brick or wood fire ovens in the their backyards.

A traditional thin crust pizza is cooked in 2-3 minutes.

Best Pizza so far posted.  I know, I just find them silly for spending so much time and effort for a one-trick pony.  Also, they then begin to sexualize the Pizza and are obsessed with the "upskirt" shots and will take a nibble here, take a picture, another, another picture.  Its a strange sub-culture, one that breeds a certain Shit-Brainedness all to itself.  Its amusing.

Haha, what a great topic.

Im actually one of those that sometimes dont eat the crust, allthough I have been doing it more frequently these days (probably because Im on a diet and Im just that hungry!). But honestly its just a habit of mine. When I get to the crust, I dont see no point eating it as its just extra empty calories and zero nutrition. And so I feel more satisfied by leaving the crust because there is no need to bring extra fuel to the fire. I mean come on, we are bodybuilders right? Its only natural to have these obsessions.

Like I said, its a obsession thing.

Thats simply not true regarding the Nutrition part.  The crust is filled with Nutrients and Protein.

Something wrong with their taste buds perhaps?
