I go with Paul Newman's personal pizzas. Thin crust and I think all sale proceeds go to his charity so you satisfy your hunger for food and to be philanthropic at the same time.

Circling back to this, El Presidente just did a review and he has Newman's on top of the frozen pizza rankings @ 7.4.

OK I know this subject is taboo, but a junkie needs his fix. Its the frozen isle for me, yes I can do pickup by my scared arse wife will make it unenjoyable. So what do you eat out of desperation.

Did Digornio's peperroni thin today and it tasted like paper, spicy ketchup with cheese.

Do you all just wait it out, make your own or add a bunch of stuff to it to at least make it edible?

Heading to the grocery store this weekend so any suggestions would be great, even if i have to try a couple.

Alright alright had to do it. Went on line and got the Zuppardi's 6-pack of pizzas sent to the house. Not a bad deal for $74 overall by the way. I'm sure they are all of the small version but still, a bit of a treat for a western mass family during these times. Will get a score in on them after we receive and devour.

Please do. I was about to and someone panned them. Hope they’re great!
 
Zupp' frozen are overpriced and flimsy,nothing like the freshmade.Save your money
 
I bought two Red Baron frozen pizzas tonight, per the recommendation of The Boneyard. I got a four cheese classic crust and a bacon lovers thin crust. I hope you all didn't lead me astray, because I've never known this place to be a source of misinformation or bad opinions.

"Your" Big Y doesn't have them? Ask thrrm to carry 'em. Then again, this might not be the time.

"My Big Y" did, at $7, not bad, and I've added freshly sautéed broccoli rabe to good effect.

Hit Pepe's in New Haven yesterday and got the Meatball and Ricotta pie, which I believe was recently added to the menu. Delicious. Other than getting it cooked a minute or so longer to improve the crisp, it was perfect. I should have asked for it crispy. Tasty as could be though.
 
I’ve had to throw out the last 2 pizzas I got they were that bad. George’s in Unionville was one. And people lined up at this crappy place. How hard is it to make a pizza?
 
Follow up on the Zuppardi's 6 piece I ordered and had shipped in, 6 of them - Cheese, White with tomatoes, Sausage, Sausage/Mushroom, Pepperoni and a Bacon/Onion. Here goes:

Gave the Pepperoni and the Bacon Onion to my son. Ok last Wednesday we cooked the Cheese and the White. My wife loved the white and I liked the Cheese. I will say this, they are small but perfect size for the dinner. Only thing is they need to add more sauce as they dry easily. Also if you go with the 10-12 minutes the crust becomes too hard, not crispy but hard. Still better than the frozen grocery store brands. Then after learning to go 7-9 minutes we did the sausage and sausage shroom on Saturday after having a few outdoors at friends. Much much better the flavor was still really good, much less dry but I do believe you need it to be a little thicker too. It seems the plain cheese and white pizza were a bit too thin. Normally I like thin but when frozen and then needing to be baked at 400 or whatever it dries out too fast. The thickness of the 2 pizzas we had with toppings seemed to keep it's flavor as well as keeping the sauce alive.

Anyway I would do it again they do a nice job. We may try the Chicago style from Goldbelly's now just for the hell of it.

Interesting the Berkshire Cafe in Torrington was in the Top 16. Underrated pie for sure but changes owners too often. Back in the day the only one close to Verdolini's of Meriden (no longer with us RIP). This just an update for Deepster and AW! LOL

Boy the looks I got at Mrs. 8893's work holiday party last year. I met a co-worker of hers from Meriden who knew the Little Rendezvous and Verdolini's history and I asked him about the spooker. You could have heard a pin drop, the room got so quiet.

Meriden guy: "The what?!?"

Me: "Um, it's a pie I heard they used to make at Verdolini's, just sauce and crushed red pepper, I think."

Mrs. 8893: "Where the hell did you hear about this?!?"

Me: "Um, some guy I know who grew up in that area."

Another guy: "DID YOU SAY 'SPOOKER'?!? Really?!? Oh my God, that's great!!!"

Me: "Yeah, that's what he said."

Mrs. 8893: "Oh God. Who is this again?"

Me: "You don't know him."

Other guy: "I want to hear more about The Spooker!!!"

Mrs. 8893: "Why do you always have to embarrass me?"

Good times...

One Bite has been doing frozen pizza reviews from his apartment while sheltering in place. Check out the surprising cameo from someone we all know and love in his review of Red Baron...

EDIT: To save you the time... It's 2:20 ish in

Expand ...

he reviewed the wrong pie. it's red baron 'brick oven' that's the preferred pie. major prep revelation last week. so, they were on sale, $2.99, last week, and I picked a couple up. and then, because the spirit of discovery is upon us, I decided to leave them outside (40s, overcast) for the few hours till dinner. after adding the usual extras, and broiling on a stone in the oven aboot 7 minutes (after 15+ minutes with only broiler on to torch that stone), and then another few minutes left in with oven off, the difference was spectacular, most noticeably in the crust. basically, a good product elevating to superior status. scary good. we'll be broiling that one defrosted from now on. on a separate note, a big shout out and reminder that ferraros pizza dough, $1.29, is a fine product-chewy crust.

I've enjoyed my last two Olde Worlds more than my last two Moderns. Just a statement to be taken for what it is.

OW is ex-Modern guys, I believe.
Essentially take-out (3 tables, no atmosphere), and cash only, for those who haven't been.

EDIT: Pretty easy off-and-back-on, Wilbur Cross Exit 61, closes at 9pm

These cash only guys might really need to get with the times soon, especially with the virus and how easily cash spreads germs.

How did these pizzas end up? Saw Barstool gave them 8.8, highest rating they doled out i think.
I’m not able to send private messages for some reason. Mods please help!
 
Best. Birthday. Dinner. Ever.
