What’s all this pan talk? Am I the only one that grills his steak around here? 

Summer is grilling.

Pan/oven combo is great and easier to control temps.  (550, let the cast iron skillet sit in the oven for a good 20-30 minutes as your steak comes to room temp...then take it out, sear the steaks on high flame in the skillet and back in the oven.  Timing all depends on the size of the steak and how you like it but it is very formulaic and easy to reproduce.)

Yeah, we sometimes use the oven in winter months. When we have a family get together we’ll get a big beef tenderloin from Costco (they actually have great meat) and cook that puppy in the oven. Turns out real good. I like the grill flavor best, but weather gets in the way sometimes. 

Costco has top quality beef, for sure!

Blue cheese is good on a buffalo chicken pizza. I’ve only had this once (actually after Wrigley 1 this year at Yak-Zees) and they used buffalo sauce in place of tomato sauce. It had some kick! Pretty damn tasty. 

Blue cheese is great drizzled on a ground beef pizza. One of my faves.

I like a little Franks on pizza from time to time

Hot dogs on pizza?!?!  

I've had a truly delicious hot dog pizza! Again, my fave pizza joint made one up. With spilt grilled hot dogs, caramelized onions, jalapenos, and drizzled with honey mustard. Really surprisingly good.

I have been know to put a little siracha on the plain pizza my kids like. Nothing wrong with A1 on a steak. Or ketchup for that matter.  Peter Luger's steak sauce is almost like ketchup, A1 and horseradish and it is DELICIOUS on a steak. I am not one to get high and mighty when it comes to condiments. Now I did take a step back when I caught my 10 year old daughter dipping her apple slices in ketchup.  That doesn't work for me LOL.

With the way this thread is going I wouldn't be surprise if he added some Cap’n Crunch on it and dipped it in mayo.

Trying to think where on the north shore you can get a pizza that looks that good.

Delaney's in Gloucester, but that's too far a drive for takeout.

Maybe Santarpio's?

Or does Swampscott have a hidden gem I don't know about?

Honestly... the pizza looks fine, but I think I know exactly how it tastes: it's plain.

The traditionalists in this thread stubbornly cling to basic pies. How about a couple toppings just to 'kick it up a couple notches'? Like... this pizza... but some crumbled Italian sausage and mushrooms? Maybe green peppers too?

This C+ pizza could have been an A.

I don’t see you posting shit. Man up and post some pictures of some of your nasty ass Canadian pizza with toppings.  Plain is where it is at. At some point pizza stops being pizza with all those weird ingredients.

Guilty as charged.

I did have pizza the other night (Thursday) and felt guilty I never took a photo and posted it here.

But I stand by my statement. I'm not a 'works' guy, but I like some toppings. Otherwise... it's like your eating a deluxe flatbread grilled cheese sandwich.

I keep forgetting to take pics of mine, but they usually have toppings.
Pizza never stops being pizza, no matter what Scruffy thinks!

Its like the A-1 on Filet Mignon argument.

A good pizza doesn't need toppings. Toppings added to a good pizza because you like them is fine. Toppings added cause its the only way the pizza tastes good means you should find a better place to get your pizza.

True, but there isn’t much exciting about posting pic after pic of nothing but plain cheese pizzas.
