Even scratch made, I dunno' if I can call my pizza artisan style. Artisan denotes expertise at a craft or skill. My approach to pizza has always been more spray and pray style.

Yep. Did a summer at Columbia University in 2004. Pinnacle had baked ziti pizza by the slice, and one slice would fill you up. Pinnacle must have been in it's heyday then. I've heard tales of some aweful stuff happening there after that, and they closed in 2011. Sad, really. In 2004, they had decent food for decent prices, but I was a broke Masters student at the time... what the hell did I know?
It's all in how you sell it. If your pizza looks all jankey, but it has fine ingredients and tastes good, you can call it "artisan".
Nobody will be the wiser.
Most of the people on this thread are drunk when they check anyhow.
Right, Scovie??
Yep. We come for the food pornz but hang around for teh comedy.
SoFlo Artisan.
So, here's why it's always a good idea to cook a 5 pound brisket on Sunday.
So you can have Sunday supper, Pizza Monday, Quesadilla Tuesday, and lunch in between.
Basically I stretch it as far as I can. Usually doesn't make it past tuesday.
Today, had the Mrs. whoop up a batch of our beer-pizza dough.
Rolled it out thin. Slapped some olive oil on her. And the pizza dough.
Topped with brisket.
Doused in Frydad's homemade spicy bbq sauce (vinegar based...not racist).
Topped with some parm.
Baked that bitch on the pizza stone at 500 American degrees.
Topped with Sum's famous slaw. Wish you were here to enjoy it with us, brother. RIP.
(He's not dead, just hope he sleeps well tonight. I hope all of you sleep well tonight. I mean that.)
This is a can't-miss. So friggin' good.
raw
Baked, sliced, topped.
Zoom!
This meal cost me less than $2. No lie. Good use of leftovers.

Thanks all
Rounds not a problem, I use to be a head baker when I was in college. I formed it by hand, no pin here. Plus I cheated, if you look closely in the whole pie shots, you’ll see in the background plexiglas with a circle I traced on it with blue marker, using my stone. I love that plexi, for dough, it just don’t stick. I also have a cut mat under the plexi for easy measuring.
Never had issues with the broil in my cheap oven, I throw the stone on the center rack, heat the oven to 500 (max temp I can go). Slap that pie on the stone, shut the door, turn her to broil, check in 2 or 3 to rotate, and she’s done in 5 to 7, thin crust only.

PMD. Is that you?
Fiddy I'd dig on that. Usually I like my slaw with pork but I'd hit it. In fact, it looks really good.
That pie in a TD would have won.
It's a long drive, but if you give me a heads up, I can make stuff happen!!!!
Glad you're up on this thread, PK. Keep 'em comin!
Get up on the throwdown next weekend, too!
Welcome to the fray!
The competition is stiff, but you are worthy!!!!
TB, it was so damn good. It should be a featured item at H.E.B.
(you got those???)

Nice FD. I ate my whole jar of leftover BBQ sundae today. That stuff is awesome. No doubt your pizza was, too.
If that’s at me then nope.
FD4 I was planning on giving the TD a try, I had a dream and it was beautiful, but had to alter it because I felt like I’d be cheating.
PMD wasn't at you, PK.
There is no way you could cheat on a TD.
Check through some of the previous entries.
Familiarize yourself with the rules.
Let it rip.
If you have a specific set of skills that makes you formidable (me and Sum have drinking cheap beer), by all means use it to your advantage.
Back to the pizza!!!
