Crust

Let’s talk about crust for a minute. It is, after all, the cornerstone of every pizza. You can make your own dough from scratch, use our Oliver’s Own Pizza Dough, or grab one of our premade crusts one that is ready to go. Or, even better, how about a couple different options?

Oliver’s Own Pizza Dough, $3.49/ea.: For the uninitiated, our Pizza Dough is one of the most popular items on our Deli Grab n Go wall. It makes perfect pizza every time. (Don’t forget you can also use if for calzones, breadsticks, etc.)  TIP: If you are opting for individual pizzas or doing this with kids, divide the dough and make smaller crusts so everyone can customize.

Other great crust options this week include a couple of ready-made crusts and the special “OO” flour that is used by the pros for great pizza dough structure.
