Holy fuck. I just bought this for the first time, 9.5/10.

Ask me anything. Also pizza and Detroit cuisine general discussion.

Well? How does it bear up to other commercial pizzas?

>> No.7182445

I hear it's simply extra bread. I haven't had one in 10 years. Back then they loaded on extra sauce too. Are the complaints true? I'm debating between a Deep Dish or two Hot n Readys. Probably will go with the latter since I'm fucking getting drunk.

>> No.7182448

>>7182432
It's much better. The crust is the best part and reminds me of pizza huts deep dish long ago, before they went to shit. The crust sets it apart but also there is nothing wrong at all with the sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. I find this perplexing since chain pizza sauce is either too sweet (papa Johns) or too salty (pizza hut). This sauce is neither, its tangy. The cheese has actual cheese flavor unlike some (dominos). The pepperoni is the same as everywhere. I don't know why it's so cheap and has a bad reputation, maybe it's because of the original crust. The deep dish blows out the competition though in price and quality.

>> No.7182450

>>7182445
They do get extra sauce and cheese, my biggest complaint is that no one makes them right so they end up flat and not airy. Fucking lazy shits not just flattening the dough by hand.

I don't think it's extra bread, its a different dough entirely it seems like. I haven't had little Caesars in years but I don't remember being particularly impressed by their thin crust. I'd get the deep dish, its almost as much food as two regulars and mine gave me a free 2 liter soda.

>there is nothing wrong at all with the sauce
If anything, the sauce is the worst part of the pizza
I'm actually disgusted by it, but the only reason I know is because I figured I'd try it a couple times before I judged it
The only thing that is redeeming about Lil Cs is the cheese bread, they give you more cheesy bread in one serving than any other pizza chain
Pizza Chains average like 4 dollars for a couple sticks of cheesebread, LCs definitely puts out, but it could be cheaper

That's why I decided to game the system. LCs uses the same pans for the Deep Dish as they do the cheese bread, LCs cheesy bread (with pepperoni) is about 5 bucks, making that 10 for two orders. But their Deep Dish, which is just the cheese bread minus the seasonings with the sauce added, is 8 bucks, and it comes with Pepperoni

If you don't mind spending 3 bucks extra, you get a great deal for pepperoni cheese bread, 1 serving to eat and 1 to save
