what would you like on your pizza?

[logos34]

I'm dreaming of pizza. (yes, this thread is inspired by the 'pie' thread).

Here's a classic:

--3 cheese: mozzarella, fontina, and parmesan
--bell peppers
--black olives
--mushrooms
--caramelized onions

Sicilian-style crust for me (not as much into deep dish). Thin crust is ok.

(oh, and a COLD beer with that--alcohol-free or not!)

I've found more topping is not always better, and you don't have to get exotic. Likewise, certain toppings should be against the law--i.e. TUNA (but what do you expect of the Brits. Men can't dress either ;) )

But to each his own. Every part of the world has their favs. How do you like yours? And your fellow countrymen?

[Richard9795]

Ahhhh, Cheese, Pepperoni, Pineapple, Ham. ALL sound so Good!...

[monsterstack]

Three cheeses? Pah! I laugh at your three cheeses. Anyone who's anyone knows it's all about Quattro Fromaggio. Yes. Mozzarella, fontina, and parmesan and cheddar, naturally. Caramelised onion and red onions chopped and fried in olive oil. Fried bacon, chunky pepperoni. A thin baste with lots of tomato paste. Oh and serve with garlic bread completely drenched in garlic butter. Yes.

[Dimitriid]

Gorgonzola cheese.

[SunnyRabbiera]

I really dislike meaty pizzas, for me meat + pizza= ick.

I keep it simple, mushrooms and black olives is my fave, sometimes I put on green peppers too.
I prefer veggie type pizzas though I am no vegetarian.

I sauté mine...olive oil goes without saying.

I'm vegetarian so meat's out

Garlic bread is great with pasta dish, but for me it's overkill with pizza (reminds me how when you eat out they always try to fill you up with bread first)

You're starting to crack aren't you. Don't go back to your old life of boozing. :)

[SuperSonic4]

I dislike Pizza itself so I would exchange it for a nice chicken korma

[Chilli Bob]

For years I always ordered vegetarian pizza with added salami. People used to make fun of me, but now it's part of the pizza hut menu.

Most commercial pizza have too much meat. As long as there are olives, mushroom, onion and salami, I'm happy.

Obviously you have not found the right pizza yet, pizza delivery services ruin pizzas fopr most folk, as do those frozen pizzas.
Authentic Sicilian is my choice of pizza.

amen...the k.i.s.s. principal is the way to go in pizza most of the time.

[connorh123]

Mozzerlla cheese.
Pepperonis.
Hand tossed.

Sometimes Chicago style.

Nay, the toppings vary. But what if I did not really enjoy the base?

+1 from chicago

[venator260]

I love meaty pizza:

extra cheese
pepperoni
ham
hamburger
salami

Put that on a thin crust without too much sauce. And hold the beer on mine. I love beer, and I love pizza, but I don't like to drink beer while eating pizza, or eating in general. To me, it makes both the food and the beer taste worse.

[Vostrocity]

I'm not a huge fan of Chicago style pizza even though I'm a Chicagoan. I like thin crust, whatever random cheese they have, green pepper, Canadian bacon, and pepperoni.

[yabbadabbadont]

When it comes to pizza, I just say, "Yes please." :D

[MikeTheC]

Should have done this as a multiple choice poll...

Things I like on my pizza:

• Italian Sausage
• Mushrooms
• Pineapples
• Onions
• Green Peppers
• Ham
• Mozarella and Ricotta cheeses
• Fresh pepperoni
• Extra Sauce

Yeah, those all sound pretty darn good.

Oh, and a Shocktop to accompany it. (I mean, if we're going to do it right, you know...)

Two local places in S.W. Florida I can't recommend highly enough for their pizzas are Maria's and Geo's. Both are different, and both are totally kick-butt.

[benny bronx]

Toppings do not matter to me (within reason) as long as it is good. +5 if it comes out sizzling from a coal-fired brick oven. A pic from one of my favorite places.

Dunno, guess I could go for new york style with pepperoni and/or maybe sausage.

[itsStephen]

Cheese
Chicken
Salami
Shredded ham
Diced bacon
Cut up cooked bacon
Bit of onion

That looks good. You're making me hungry. Whereabouts is that restaurant located (City, State)?

[benny bronx]

It's in Manhattan.

[logos34]

Lots of interesting posts...Wheat! (Best, I would think, for a thin crust. Have to look into that one.). Nothing like good (hot and mild) Italian sausage, either. I miss that frm the old days--used to get it freshly made at an Italian grocer out in Chicago. They also this great Italian bread with mozzarella kneaded in with the dough--panzarella or something. So simple yet absolutely the best snack ever! (better than any fast food crap).

I had pinneaple a long time ago--another surprisingly good one. Really adds zest. Fruits are often overlooked in cooking.

[HappyFeet]

Anchovies, onions, and extra cheese.

Everything and even anchovies here please! No seriously, just make pizza yourself: the dough isn't that hard to make (but make sure to put a wet towel on top of your dough when it's resting, otherwise it gets all dried up), tomato sauce is even for kitchen disasters easy (let it cook long enough, the longer the sweeter), and just throw all your left-overs on top of it. Jummy!

Oh no! A Rachel Ray fan. :)


My favorite is Pizza Hut's Meatlover's Pizza with a stuffed pan crust.

Our Pizza King has a couple of good ones. The Chicken Ranch Pizza has chicken, bacon, onions and cheddar cheese in a ranch sauce. And, if I remember correctly, the Cowboy Pizza has double sausage, double pepperoni, double hamburger, bacon, mushrooms, and double cheese. It's amazing.

[jerrrys]

Anchovies, onions, and extra cheese.

my favorite too, nothing like a good case of heartburn...

[WatchingThePain]

Black Olives, Green Pepper, Mushrooms and some hot Chilli's.
Also it has to be fresh dough and good Cheese like Mozarella and maybe a bit of Monterey Jack.
Pepperoni is Pizza Vandalism IMO.
Also I would not pass on that cold beer although a large Coke with ice and lemon (no straw) is what I usually follow up with.
Thin Crust Baby.

Hmmm Strange, in "OlBlighty" we might have a similar view on U.S. dress sense.
You seem intrigued by check shirts .. and Chinos .. ;).
In the UK the Upper classes have what's known as clothes..things like Bowler hats.
The Peasants just wear a fig leaf and some mud and they live in the treetops WAHAHA.

[doas777]

I guess I;m kinda zen on pizza. make me one with everything

that said, you can always judge a pizza place on it's Sausage + Mushrooms. if the mushrooms come from a can, and the sausage from a bag in the freezer, then you know not to order from them again.

[oldsoundguy]

Pesto, multi-cheese and FRESH seafood!

Yes, I have no doubt it's mutual...Two peoples separated by a common language and all that...Actually, there's an Anglophile in me that kind of likes the idea of more flamboyant colors in men's work wear (minus the Bowler, thank you) ;)

Pepperoni, pepperoni, and pepperoni with extra pepperoni.

Think of your Cholestral level.
Warm up Some Pepperoni in the Microwave (not too hot-Disclaimer done)
Then pick up and squeeze..watch that pink death goo oozing out..looking to drip onto the next heart attack victim.

That sounds good. I really don't know of any pizza places anywhere around that I would expect to not use mushrooms from a can and sausage from a bag in the freezer. To me, that's just how life is.

[khelben1979]

I never buy pizzas nowadays. I always make them myself.

Cheese, ham and ananas. That's what I chose today. I only want to eat pizzas perhaps a couple of times each year. I mostly eat other things with focus on health food, but not too extreme though. I don't think a dietist would be too fund of my cooking if I say so myself, but it works and gives much energy which I need when I exercise.

[demon_hunter]

so much to say...
begin:
red lester, cheddar, mozzarella, Parmesan, chives, mushrooms, pepper, pineapple, ham, feta, basil, sun dried tomatoes, sweetcorn

and it would have to be deep ridged


ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

im really hungry now

Chicken
Sweetcorn
Peppers (including sizzle-tongue chillis)
Cheese (Cheddar, plus a nice stinky blue cheese, Mmmm!)
Mushrooms
Tomatoes
A nice, thick bread with big crust

Heck, I'm hungry now! Where's the phone? I'm gonna order myself one of these bad boys right now!!

sounds good to me...but you have to throw it in the air and spin it, right? that's the hard part

[forrestcupp]

Sweetcorn


I've seen a couple of people on here that like sweetcorn on their pizza. I've never heard of that before. It doesn't sound that good.

You don't have to make a hand tossed crust. You can just spread it out on the pan. That's what I do.

Cheese and peperoni, excuse my misspellings, my cursor is acting funny.

Anchovies?

I don't eat them because once my tongue was sore for 3 weeks.
When I examined it in the mirror I saw a little Anchovie bone sticking out.
I removed the bone with tweezers.

Pepperami..who knows what's in that?.

Overcooked Pizza is disgusting.

Round here I can get any 12" pizza for £3.50 (That's right Suckaz).
Including the "All day breakfast" Pizza : Bacon, Egg,Tomatoe and Sausage.

Crimes against pizza:
- BBQ sauce.
- Using cheddar instead of mozzarella or feta.
- Using so much cheese that you can't see the tomato sauce.
- Chips/potato wedges as a topping.

Biggest perpetrator of crimes against pizza: Dominoes.

Gentlemen, in the name of good taste, we must destroy Dominoes!

the pizza tastes like cardboard. also the deliberate misspelling always bothers me, like dunkin donuts.

[etnlIcarus]

They actually had the audacity to release something called a, "double decadence", pizza a couple of years ago. You thought cheese in a fold of crust was overkill? Try a 1cm thick layer of cheese on a thin pizza base, topped with a second pizza base and the actual pizza's sauce, toppings and more cheese.

Sadly, my step brother's bogan (then) fiancée ordered the pizzas at a party one time. All the pizzas came prepared that way and being a tad hypoglycaemic, I needed to eat. I was ready to vomit before finishing a single slice.

[RevRogue]

Simple, I'll have a Square Deep Dish Pepperoni with a side of Ranch sauce and a Sam Adams. mmmmm pppizzzzaaaa

[gnomeuser]

I love Brazilian style pizzas:

A grande split between:
Calabrese sausage and bacon.
Five cheeses
Chocolate, fresh strawberries and a dab of condensed milk.

And a cheddar cheese filled crust (when I add this I tend to leave out the sweet pizza as chocolate and cheese tends to mix poorly).

Oh how I wish I was back in Brazil so I could enjoy one now.

True.
Chips as a topping is criminal.
Send anyone who does that to the UK, a fate worse than death.
Pizza Express - Whaddaya think?
I reckon they are alright.
Mozzarella is the base but then a little something to give it a tang like maybe feta.
Neva put too much Thyme on a pizza.
Do you want Gordon Ramsey to spank your bottom?.

Hoi hoi Strawberrys?
Gordon will spank you.

[logos34]

I largely agree with etnlIcarus about the crimes...Like a house, a pizza is only as good as it's foundation--i.e. dough/crust and tomato sauce + mozzarella.

except feta can be a wonderful topping in my book, as accent adds zip and zest...Roquefort and blue cheese too, though better I would think on a white pizza sauce.

Dominoes is an abomination...why do people waste their money on it?

[bowens44]
