So I’m having a pizza craze so I’d thought I’d ask you fellow pizza enjoyers what your preferences are.

For the crust - I prefer this to be deep pan as I find it more filling and a hearty meal. stonebaked and thinner crusts are okay but if it’s too hard and crunchy and in the middle then I’m not a huge fan.

Stuffed crust? That shit is a luxury for me and is my 2nd fave.

Toppings - It’s either the classic reliable pepperoni pizza or you razzle dazzle ham, mushrooms and slice of pepper for me.

Chicken and sweetcorn is nice, but I’d have it with a BBQ base rather than a normal tomato base.

Cheese layer - Don’t really care, just don’t make it cheap wax

Frozen/Fresh - I enjoy Morrisons “Market” range of pizzas, you get a hearty and decent sized pizza for not a bad price.

Frozen? It’s either ALDI, Chicago and Icelands “NY” range for me as it does its job as a cheeky treat.

Fast food - Local pizzeria takeaways tbh, I like our local pizza takeaway who never, NEVER skimps out on the toppings. Absolute chad of a man I assure you.

So what are your preferences in these categories?

    Feel free to judge, I’ll own it.

    But I like Papa John’s. A stuffed crust with BBQ sauce, bacon, sausage, and pineapple.

    My butthole suffers for it, but it’s worth it. Very tasty.

    Thin crust, pesto instead of tomato sauce, frrsh figs drizzled with.balsamic, feta cheese, arugula OR Little C’s pepperoni. There is no in between.

    By far the pizza napoletana. Especially the dough is something between pancake and bread, so delicious!

    Pizza Napoletana (usually margherita DOP or marinara when at home.)

    One of my local Neapolitan pizzerias makes a fantastic pizza melanzane too.

    High quality ingredients, carefully selected; less is most definitely more!

    For crust it’s just however it comes out when I spread out the dough, I like green pesto with feta cheese then salami, artichoke hearts, and sun dried tomatoes. Then I cover it in hot sauce like tobasco or valetina

    Good question and I have a hard time nailing it down to a single pizza.

    For the pizza style it has to be either New York style or Detroit Style.

    For toppings, it is either pepperoni and black olives, sliced meatball and banana peppers, or rarely since most places don’t make it this way, a buffalo chicken pizza with blue cheese (NOT ranch) instead of marinara and hot sauce.

    Most of the obvious choices will be posted so I’d like to give a shout-out to tuna and red onion, it sounds wrong but is surprisingly moreish!

    I like variety but if I had to pick one the local pizza place has one thin crust with beef filet, shrimp, sliced tomato and onion.

    Okay, so, I know it’s a trashy answer:

    Domino’s Philly Cheesesteak pizza. Especially with jalapeños added.

    I would RATHER have Lou Malnati’s, but I don’t live in Chicago. So my favorite readily available pizza is a national chain’s surprisingly delicious offering.

    I got a pizza oven back in May and we’ve started to make homemade which have been amazing.

    I would say for favorite would be between a prosciutto and pepperoncini or chicken or pulled pork bbq with red onion and homemade bbq sauce.
