Well, I finally got the chance to try Costco pizza.

Not bad. Not bad at all. Yeah, I could get a better slice in NYC for $2, but this stuff is good on its own merit. Thick layer of real (if somewhat salty) cheese, competent crust and sauce. Better than a slice of Little Caesars or that Marketside stuff from Wal-Mart.

If I had a Costco membership I'm sure I'd be getting a whole pizza of this once a month or so.

Cheesy pizza is okay, sometimes I have craves for it
Pepperoni, I feel its too greasy, okay flavor but sometimes salty
Hawaiian are best
Some for italian

As for the hotdogs, I feel they have undergone the quality over the years, probably just me

And fuck, how I miss pinacolada shakes

Hi Carl.

>> No.7771471

costco pizza is mediocre but you get a lot for $10. Much better when reheated in an oven, actually has crispy crust at that point.

Browning like that is caused by cellulose in the shredded cheese they use.

Good cheese doesn't do that, and people who know pizza view it as a fault. Good cheese can stand very high temps and not brown but still release oil, which is what you want.

Pic related was cooked at 900 degrees, almost twice as hot as OPs pizza.

>Different cheeses cook differently

They do. Some are wetter and oilier than others and melt differently. Also when cheese is pre-shredded it comes with a dusting of wood fiber to stop it from sticking together. As much as 10% of the cheese can be cellulose. This is why chain pizza cheese browns like it does.

Bonus:

Real deal NY pizza doesn't have a carpet of cheese on it. There are either splotches of melted but not browned cheese (when they use pieces or slices) and sauce, or the cheese and sauce bakes into a kind of orange slurry when they use shredded. It is virtually never browned carpet like in OPs pic.

You also don't let cheese shreds get all over the crust, like in the pic.

>carpet of cheese

This is my problem with the vast majority of American pizza. Too much goddamned cheese, it overtakes everything. Or it does nothing if it's that waxy tasteless low-grade shit.

I had you pegged for a flyover for a second but with that last line you must be from Boston or one of the suburbs, for some reason people from Boston are obsessed with some imaginary rivalry related to baseball and they proudly announce they're white socks fans like they're saying something controversial or interesting
