Boasting “pizzeria taste” from a home-baked pie, Doreen’s plops a solid half pound of cheese on every pizza; quality Italian sausage is fresh, and not those pre-cooked food service crumbles. \u00a0Like so many Upper Midwest pizza success stories, Doreen’s frozen biz began with the company selling pies to local bars.<\/p>\n

Instructions call for center shelf, 450, 14-17 minutes, with a three minute rest before slicing (good advice for any frozen pie). \u00a0The crust is a good bakery style, a little thicker than ‘traditional Chicago thin crust’, the sauce is mild, the cheese is ample and has nice pull. I liked the pepperoni because it has a nice little bit of kick. The hand pulled sausage could be a little bigger for my taste, and while it is clearly pure pork, it’s mildness will have some wishing for a touch of fennel and\/or garlic.<\/p>\n

It’s a little higher priced than comparable products, but the hand-made quality makes it a strong value.<\/p>\n
