OT: Best Pizza in CT

So we tried the new New Haven style place in Killingworth, Rosello's, last week. Good ingredients, good sauce, cooked well, but the crust was tasteless and cracker-like.

Had Grand Apizza from Madison again tonight and confirmed once again that it is by far the best in town for our tastes.

Madison definitely lacks a quality pizza maker

I have not, will put it on the list. Thanks.

I was pleasantly surprised last year at the pizza from Anthony's of Guilford. Do you rate Marco's better?[/QUOTE


Yes. Very thin, light, different good on all the basics. In town (delivery), I use Carpanzanos. I like it, maybe a little better than Anthony's.
But Marco's more than either.

Ideally we would never have to eat such things but we have all been there. As a kid I loved those Stouffer's French bread pizzas as an adult if I'm forced to eat a frozen pizza Red Baron is actually pretty decent. I expect this thread to bring us a recruit in the near future.

Stouffer's are my go-to for long nights working on papers. Very palatable compared to the competition.

Digiorno if I want a substitute for real pizza. It is better than lousy pizza joint pizza but not anything near a great pizza joint pizza. The thin crust is particularly good.

Otherwise, I like to take a Totino's and throw a little Italian seasoning on it. Nothing like real pizza but I've always thought they were delicious.
 
Red Baron deep dish singles. They aren't really deep dish and they taste good for what they are.

We have those in the freezer at all times. The kids love them. I got sick of them years ago but they are pretty good.
 
They are all terrible, all of them. From CPK, to Stouffers, Red Baron, diGiorno, Elio's, Amy's, Paul Newman, Celeste and on and on. Terrible, they're all terrible. It confounds me that no one can make a halfway decent frozen pizza. I'd rather go get a $5 pizza from 'Lil Caesar's.

NEXT!

Newman's Own Bufallo Chicken pizza, hands down the best frozen pizza in my opinion. I also like California Kitchen Barbeque Chicken Pizza, although it's very sweet. I like Stouffer's french bread pizza as well.
 
I can't recall eating a plain frozen pie, so it hard for me to say.I dress up anything frozen.

Aldi's has a nice pie, Red Baron ain't bad. By the time I add sausage, pepperoni, cheese, peppers, etc.. you can't see the pie anyway.

The number one rule for me is to be hungry (actually famished) for me to enjoy it.

My question is does anyone actually microwave it according to directions?

I don't microwave anything, microwaves ruin food.

My question is, if you're going to go through all the trouble of adding all that stuff to mediocre pizza anyway, why not start with a better base and buy some fresh dough, sauce and cheese? Or in a pinch, one of these?

IMO it beats Boboli or Mama Rosa's.
 
Used to crush full Tombstone's back in the day and eat half of my sisters because she would eat a lot slower lol.

I may try, what but I wouldn't know what sauce or type of cheese to buy (or how much for one pie). I know mozzarella, but on my frozen pie I just add some parmesan on the existing cheese. What cheese and sauce have you used?

Just buy a bottle of marinara, maybe your favorite but preferably something whose first two ingredients begin with "whole crushed tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil" instead of "water, tomatoes, vegetable oil". You won't need the whole thing either, so you can save the rest for pasta the next night or something. Then just grab a couple mozzarella balls from the deli cheese bazaar, I avoid the shredded in the bag stuff, slice them as thin as you can get and go to town with the rest of your toppings.
 
The best frozen pizza in my opinion is a pepperoni Tombstone. Its cheap but don't let the price fool you. The crust gets extra crispy, the pepperoni is juicy and flavorful, the sauce has a nice spice to it. I'd vote this pizza hands down. Be sure to sprinkle crushed red pepper and garlic powder...now you are in business. I think it's 5 bucks for a pie....just try one, you won't regret it.
