DIY Pizza for Super Bowl Sunday!

Did you know that more pizza is ordered on Super Bowl Sunday than on any other day of the year? Damn! In keeping with solidarity for IWW-Pizza Hut Workers Union members in Sheffield, UK I will not be ordering Pizza Hut Pizza today and I encourage you to do the same! Instead try a DIY Pizza. Bake it before the big game to fill your house with a pizzalicious smell!

Here are some interesting and creative takes on making an already awesomely portable food even more game-day-friendly!

Check out Molly Cody's recipe for pull-apart pizza. You just take a big sourdough boule cut it up and stuff it with your favorite toppings put it back together and bake till it is GBD! then pull it apart again!

Check out this super easy recipe for Ritz cracker pizzas! IT might be a little to "Lunchables" for some folks... but those folks should just stop pretending like they don't like pizza Lunchables. It is the best one.
Top Ritz crackers with your favorite pizza toppings and bake until cheese is melty! Use sparingly a thicker sauce or even seasoned tomato paste for best results.

A while back I submitted a cute recipe to Slice for pizza cups... not to be confused with pizza cupcakes, which you should also bring to your super bowl party! Mmmmm. Make it even easier by picking up a pizza kit from Pizza Tonight (if you're in RVA) or getting dough from your favorite local pizza joint (if you are elsewhere).

Freezer Finds : Preheat the oven: Richmond is having a peak frozen pizza moment. Locally made frozen pizzas abound in Richmond.

From Chicago deep-dish and hand-tossed sourdough to neo-Neapolitan and vegan varieties, frozen pizzas are packing the coolers at an array of local establishments. Billy Pie For over two decades, baker Billy Fallen supplied Richmond’s eateries and grocers with remarkable sourdough bread, pasta, and pizza. In the fall of 2023, he left the restaurant world to focus on a veritable frozen pizza factory. Getting the scale-up just right has been his work.

Tales of Pizza: Part Four: Barquitos

When I was a young student of Richmond Public Schools, we were often served a very weird pizza-like dish called "barquitos" for lunch in the cafeterium (cafeteria+auditorium+gymnasium). I have NEVER been able to find out anything about barquito pizza on the internet. I did however, find out that barquito means little boat in Spanish. A barquito is basically a french bread pizza topped with seasoned taco meat (probably left over lunch the day before) and cheddar cheese. I feel like maybe there was a similar dish with sloppy joe meat but who can really be sure. I have done my best to block out school lunch from my memories. What is this dish? I only ever had it in elementary school. Is it the concoction of a lunch lady? Is it a real food item? What is a barquito?
