My question might be a non sequitur, but when one is feeling under the weather with no desire to cook but still wants pizza what are some of your favorite grocery store to oven pizzas?

I really couldn't say anymore.
Since most frozen pizza crusts resemble cardboard we've switched to buying pizza dough and fixings to make our own za's in the oven.
I get 2 x 16" za's out of one dough ball, 3 tbsps of marinara sauce, half a package of shredded cheese plus whatever toppings....12 mins in the oven we're there. . -
Trick question.Comment

I'll be the first to admit it, some frozen pizzas can be darn good for frozen pizza. My favorite in said "darn good for frozen pizza" category is Red Baron. And one that Aldi sells, Mama Cozzi's Take & Bake Deli Pizza. Yum!Comment

Huskee I like Red Baron too. I believe that Schwan’s actually makes them.
Not that it’s doing much good yet, but I’ve been trying to eat better, so been eating more thin crust pizzas. Schwan’s new thin crust isn’t bad as well as Palmero’s. I haven’t been too fond of anything DiGiorno or however you spell it.Comment

Makes sense, Schwan's is hi quality food. We used to order from them and were rarely ever disappointed. Their tomato basil bisque will make you slap your grandma. I seem to recall not caring much for DiGiorno, and I simply can't remember Freschetta. I do remember that Red Baron seemed to top them all, especially if you get a stuffed crust or rising dough one, pretty much the opposite of thin crust, lol!

Costco Detroit pizza is the best.Comment

Totino's anything but supreme, and I add enough pepperonis to cover in totality and add red pepper flakes or Tony Chachere's
I'll blend in some Tony's, Red Barron, Great Value thin crust, etc. All will get the pepperoni and Tony Chachere's treatment.
I can't stand stuffed crust. It's like they take the cheese off the floor and hide it in the crust.
Always in the oven, use the broiler to toast all those pepperonis on top before removing.

Most of the frozen pizzas on this part of planet earth are really mediocre in my judgement. I do not make my own but buy frozen pizza bases and add desired toppings.
A lot of the stores have in house bakeries that make and sell fresh uncooked pizza's, some of them are really good but more pricey than the box frozen ones.
​We had take away Romans Pizza tonight.Comment

The very best frozen grocery store pizza I've ever had was Pizza Grandiosa. You'll need to bribe Elton's BBQ to send some to you (or fly halfway around the Northern Hemisphere to get it yourself) ... but it's worth it!Last edited by MBMorgan; January 21, 2022, 01:18 PM.Comment

Best frozen pizza's we've had are the California Pizza Kitchen ones. Mostly we use them for an easy lunch idea if there aren't any leftovers to be had.Comment

We have convenience store chain called Kwik Trip in these parts. They have a house brand frozen pizza line. One is called "The Meat Sweats". A basic pepperoni and sausage Za but with TONS of meat on it. Also their sauce has a nice bite to it and plenty of it. Last and best they are cheap! We always have a couple in the freezer.Comment

I actually really like the Newman's Own pizzas. They're carried (here at least) at Kroger stores, the crust is decent for frozen and the toppings are also good.
For those saying frozen pizzas aren't as good as homemade... no kidding. But the point is that sometimes you don't want to cook for whatever reason and frozen 'za is one of the few meals you can just pull out of the freezer, toss in the oven and in way under 30 minutes have a meal on the table. Add in a salad and some beer or wine and it's not bad for a quick meal.Last edited by rickgregory; January 21, 2022, 02:50 PM.Comment

That's one cool thing about this place. You ask a question, and you get 20 people responding with 50 different answers!Comment

Digiorno is my go to for frozen pizza. Especially the pepperoni. Two of those can feed the family and when they are on sale it will be right around $10. And the kids love them too.Comment

We like Costco Cauliflower Crust, 2 for $10, going shopping today and they are on the list.
I like to cook them in my EZ Bake Pellet Grill.Last edited by bbqLuv; January 21, 2022, 02:24 PM.Comment

Closest Costco that I'll go to is in Medford. I might have to stop in when I'm up there next week. I think the "EZ Bake" theme might catch on!Last edited by CaptainMike; January 21, 2022, 03:12 PM.
