Papa Johns has come up before in this thread, but I’ve just found a series of videos featuring Father John himself giving a staged demonstration of how to make one of his signature pies.
I had absolutely no idea this program existed before now but wow, it’s really something. The “Chief Entertaining Officer” of this business (?) is a treat.
“You’re only as good as your worst pizza,” is a bold statement coming from the man whose pizza “labs” produced the “Fritos Chili Pizza.”
It is time for not-pizza:
So it’s the protein pizza I mentioned before. A pea protein base with a little cheese and random meat topped on it.
First time I got one of these I tried just cooking it on one of those pizza trays with the holes. It just melted through the holes and glued itself to the tray so I got a pizza stone.
Ya gotta burn the shit outta it or the center just goes gooey.
The crust is just a solid chunk instead of doughy so it’s like a thin crispy pizza base.
It’s not bad but you’re tasting mostly the toppings on it with the Prosciutto slices being pretty overpowering since it’s salty.
If you’re on a diet or keeping to macros and got an insane craving for pizza, just take a break for a day and get an actual pizza.
I can envision a layer of peanut butter overlaying the jelly, the toppings being like banana slices and the crust being something like graham crackers while the outer edge is whatever style of bread you want
Yeah, you could make one of those kinda abstract dessert pizzas. I remember when I was a kid the pizza hut had an apple pie pizza along those lines. Probably you’d have to use a really watery “jelly” so it can afford to cook down a bit in the oven, and then you apply the peanut butter post-bake from like a squeezy bottle so the whole thing has like a spiral or lattice of peanut butter on top.
Speaking of experimental pizzas, I’ve been seeing a lot of commercials lately about Cici’s coming out with some new pizzas. Has anyone tried them out yet? Are they any good?
