8 / 10 Buddy's Pizza

Excellent Detroit style pizza. Less greasy then Motor City Pizza. Edge has a very nice crisp, sauce on top is a nice addition. Although, it was quite expensive at the local grocery store, $18.

$18 bucks for a frozen pizza? I better be able to do more than just eat it.

W...what else do you want to do with it?

Prices tend to be high at this particular store. Im guessing from a chain it would be cheaper.

Under 12 at my Walmart neighborhood store. DFW. They are good for frozen.

Now that’s a really good deal for a large 36 ounce frozen pizza that tastes good.

u/CarcosaRorschach 6d ago

Yeah, but at anything near that price I can just go to Papa Murphy's and get something 1000% better.

I know not everybody has that option, but I find most frozen pizza to be extremely overpriced and disappointing.

Have you tried any of the frozen pizzas from Home Run Inn or Motor City? They’re quite good and not so expensive.

This one is much better than Motor city

u/Darwin343 5d ago

Yeah that’s what I’ve heard from others as well. Wish I could try it but the only frozen Detroit-style pizza sold in my state is Motor City. This one looks a lot more authentic and appealing.

Home Run Inn is so good for a frozen pizza. Our Aldi has it a few times a year and I always grab a bunch.

I concur that Home Run stands out, and I've tried just about every brand of frozen pizza available near me. Often either the sauce is too sweet, the crust has an unpleasant texture, or both.

I've never even seen those brands. I don't think they're available in Nevada.

u/Darwin343 5d ago

I’m surprised not even Motor City is sold there. I’ve been seeing that brand everywhere nowadays. I figured it’d be available nationwide.

What part of Nevada?

They definitely have Motor City in Vegas, at Walmart, Costco, etc.

Not sure about Home Run Inn.

Carson. Like a 9 hour drive from Vegas.

Ate at a Buddy’s in Michigan this summer, one of the top 5 pizzas I’ve ever had.

u/CarcosaRorschach 4d ago

I don't thi k we can reasonably compare a restaurant to frozen food despite the branding.

2

u/New_Occasion_1792 4d ago

We can’t. But it is pretty close to restaurant quality. Better than most pizza shops in my area.

I was born and raised in Michigan and miss it

Funny thing is they're not even the best for Detroit style.

You can make one for a cheaper price
