I haven't thought about combo in years and never made it after I moved out of the house, but yes, I do recall that being dinner on numerous occasions growing up. And I believe the whole thing was brought together with one of those small cans of Hunt's tomato sauce - no additional seasoning. It was solid kid food - but not sure I'd think much of it today. Or any hotdog casserole-like thing for that matter.

My canned vegetable of choice is chipotle in adobo, but that's kinda like cheating. So I'll go with medium sized low-sodium artichokes.
 
They aren’t frozen but the $6 pizzas at Sam’s club are legit decent.

That's a Jersey style Italian hot dog.

This place called The Red Tomato is the best is my opinion. they are located in Madison ct.
 
Costco's and Sam's Club have decent pizza's. In a pinch. However, I would not call them frozen pizza.They make them and wrap them up in the fridge part. If you are talking about the real frozen one's in the freezer's...omg.....forget it. One time Costco and I think Sams carried Mystic Pizza. Small plain. Three in a carton. Not bad, plus you could dress them up to your liking. They could not keep up with the sales. They went out quick. Even the people at checkout raved about them. Then...it stopped. Everyone was baffled. Costco's comes out with their own. A copy of Mystic. Kirklands. Terrible!!
 
Everyone here should download Barstool’s/ Dave Portnoy’s One Bite pizza review app.

One bite, everybody knows the rules.

Everyone should ignore Barstool in the hopes they go away.
 
I know some of you may not care for Dave Portnoy or Barstool, but this is a big deal. Pres has finally come to New Haven to rate pizza. He’s planning on hitting Modern (8.8, should have been a 9.2), Pepe’s, Sally’s, and BAR. Zuppardi’s should be added too imo.

If all the New Haven pizza places deliver (which of course they will), he’ll declare New Haven the rightful pizza capital of the world!

When is this? It must have already happened because Modern isn't open on Mondays and it doesn't open until 10:30 on the other days of the week.

Speaking of Modern, we got takeout from there on Friday for the first time in several months, during which we've had Bufalina probably a half dozen times or more. We all agreed that the Modern crust now seems thick to us by comparison to Bufalina. One of the two pies was also under-done. Both were still excellent, but I think Bufalina is now our overall favorite, period.

I think he may have been there on Saturday or Sunday...not sure which.

He releases one a day. So Sally's or Pepe's should be today.

@I Bleed Blue, thanks for posting this. I was thinking of posting this last night. My son is a huge One Bite fan and he showed me the Modern review the second I walked in the door last night. We've been asking for months why he hadn't been to New Haven yet. I'll be curious to see where he ranks all the New Haven places.

He previously reviewed Pepe's in Manchester and Chestnut Hill, MA but those were a long time ago and his scores back then weren't as consistent. My son calls those old reviews "rookie scores".

Have to recognize the New Haven scene for what it is. But I agree that Bufalina is doing something more interesting right now that has a more Neapolitan style that contrasts with the New Haven style nicely given the proximity.

There is no scale to Bufalina though, it's just the one pizza maker who makes everything. I think that consistency and style is why, to me, it's the best right pizza in the state right now, but there's something to be said about achieving great pizza at scale as Pepe's has, Bufalina won't be able to do that.
