Not entirely strange, all chains offer ranch as a side as it's fairly common and it's also not that uncommon to use ranch seasoning to season things

In my middle school, they kept a salt shaker full of ranch seasoning at every register on pizza days since they would run out of actual dressing and it was cheaper

It's a dumbed down version of something delicious. I like a German yogurt/buttermilk salad dressing made with fresh herbs. But when you take something delicious and start replacing the ingredients with cheaper and cheaper shit you eventually get to the point where you've created the zombie version of the original thing. To me the bottles of ranch dressing sold in the supermarket are that kind of zombie food. Because soy oil, buttermilk flavor, MSG and artificial flavors do not equal buttermilk dressing to me.

The idea of ranch seasoning, which I'm assuming is just the salt, sugar, buttermilk flavoring, MSG and artificial flavorings is appalling. Seasoning pizza crust with that is exactly the kind of redneck shit I expect from the people who came up with stuffed crust pizza, though.

Redneck? Eating pizza at all is "redneck" then. Why do you cucks pretend to vomit over crust with cheese or wieners stuffed inside? It's tasty junkfood.

>> No.6804137

>>6804101
No.

I have some white trash relatives, and I know they dunk their pizza crust (and just about anything else) in runny, artificially flavored mayo.

But taking just the salt, sugar, MSG and artificial flavors from that shit and using it to season the pizza crust, which you then fill with cheese because the fucking pizza doesn't have enough cheese on it already? Then giving away ranch dressing with that pizza so not only can your customers have more cheese with their cheese, but more ranch with their ranch?

That is some crazy redneck shit.

Okay this just sounds like bullshit.

Ranch dressing was concocted in California sometime ago. Whether there was some German analogue is irrelevant, the recipe for ranch--which by the way was concocted on a ranch--is an American original.

It's not common where I live, so I've never seen anyone do it in real life. I just know it's a thing. Most of the girls I know would scoff at eating pizza from a chain, but that's because most of the local pizza joints here are better.

Given how many Germans came over to Texas and California (not to mention northers Mexico) to be cowboys, and the heavy influence they had on both the food of those regions I'd be really surprised if this American creation didn't have some German roots. Because it's just a mayo based take on German buttermilk dressing.

Same goes for chili. The stuff is basically goulash using Mexican hot peppers instead of paprika. You know that's some German cowboy shit. And don't forget Texas style brisket. There's German roots all over that one as well. And in all the beer they brew.

(You can hear this in the music as well. Listen to the bass lines of both Western music and northern Mexican music. There's the oompah bass line, and there may even be an accordion playing over it).

A quick check on wiki shows that California tops the list of states for the number of Americans of German heritage, with over 5.5 million people. That's nearly 2 million more German American residents of California than English American, and nearly double the number of German Americans in Texas.

Lots of pizza places places mix their own ranch anyway because it's cheaper than buying bottles in bulk. I'm pretty sure you can buy it at any grocery store in packets or even in bottles.

Ranch seasoning is the blend of seasonings that are used to make ranch dressing, not the other way around guy. It's funny when people try to act pretentious but end up being ignorant to something pretty mundane and commonly known

Yeah....or you could get the spices yourself and mix them together before mixing with the buttermilk and mayo, if you so please. Are you against buying pre packaged black pepper too, you artisan? You special snowflake? Do it if you will but most people don't give a damn.

My problem with the ranch-flavored crust is that it misses the point. The flavor of the ranch dressing is only one reason that you use it as a dipping sauce. The other reasons are the cool temperature and the creamy texture, both of which contrast wonderfully with what you're dipping in it.

When I went to college in Iowa City, there was a pizza place called Gumby's. I think it's still there. Their signature item was Pokey Stix, which are basically cheesy bread - but the best ever version of that. You typically got them with cups of marinara and ranch. The ranch always went the fastest, and if Gumby's had come out with ranch *flavored* Pokey Stix we would have said a hearty "Thanks, but no thanks" and continued right on with what we were doing.

This is just pizza dough flattened slightly and "docked" (pricking the surface so it doesn't bubble), brushed with the garlic butter and wioth cheese on top. And yeah, they are good. I like PJ's pizza as far as chain pizza goes, though.

Protip:

PJ's garlic sauce is literally Parkay blue squeeze bottle margarine with garlic powder in it. That's literally exactly what it is. To me it's a million times better than Domino's garlic butter, also.
