I made cast iron Pizza for the first time last week. It was decent but kinda small. I want to make large pizzas. Is a pizza stone a good investment?
I also don't feel like my dough rose enough. I guess my kitchen is pretty cold so i'll try the whole "letting it rise in the oven" thing next time.
Some questions for the pizza experts:
>what's the key to replicating takeout-style pizza? (think dominos, etc) I want to make a pizza that's thick, saucy, cheesey and delicious
>how do i master the sauce? Should i simmer it beforehand or just throw it right onto the pizza? Does the brand really matter?
>cheese.
The only mozzarella i can get my hands on are the wet balls, so what happened is there was a pool of liquid on top of the cooked pizza that was eventually absorbed by the dough, making it soggy. Would a thicker crust solve this? Or should i try drying out the mozzarella in advance? I read I can just slice it and lay the slices onto paper towels but that seems pretty slow and inefficient.

I always dip my burgers in ketchup before each bite
