Pizza Hut Deal!!!

[gregintenn]

Today only, Single topping personal pan pizzas are $2 each. Limit 4. Walk in or on line orders only.

[RED333]

Appreciate the heads up, but no thanks. They have changed something in their sauce and their pizza dough and I just don't care for it anymore.

[gregintenn]

But two dollars!

[Garufa]

Hot sauce and other kitchen staples go a long way in helping to choke down subpar pizza.  I’d throw down on a couple of those $2 pizzas with my trusty bottle of Louisiana Red Dot and Kroger course powdered garlic.

I know of at least 2 that folded up around here due to lack of business vs other chains. Use to be a lot better pie 30 years ago

For that price you could buy the limit 4 and freeze the other 3. Then thaw them out whenever you want. Thanks Greg

We had 2 here in Mount Juliet. They're closed as well.

Man that 3.99 lunch buffet back in the day…

Due to quality issues, we end up getting the pre made pizza dough from Publix and making our own at home. We grab a few of them and freeze them for future use. Of course they have to bet set out and allowed to rise prior to using them. Unless of course a person likes to gnaw off pieces of frozen dough.

I used to love their hand tossed "Supreme" pizza with peanut butter spread on top.

I thought you cheap bass turds would enjoy a two dollar pizza.

For the record, we got the limit.

For an emergency pie, or too lazy to drive a half hour, the best is the Dominoes 5 Cheese Wisconsin Pie on NY style crust... and Feta Spinach a thin crust (like an appetizer) ...
You're talking to a NJ boy here and that's the closest I can find to real pies in a franchise biz down here...

Protein is added to flour and cornmeal, that's the change you taste in breads. I've searched, thrown out lots of bread because of the taste or smell when toasted. Europe won't buy our flour and corn meal because of the added protein.

My son's senior year of high school, 1991. A friend delivers for Pizza Hut, sees that we order a lot for our family of 5. Oh, I have a few left over most every night, I'll bring you one. Sunday morning a week later there are 3 pizza boxes on the counter when I get home from work. An odor is in the air. 3 pizza hut pizzas have green growth on top. All went to the outdoor trashcan. I could drive by one of their locations, get a smell and feel sick. All closed here now.

 a friend of mine suggested making pizza on flour tortillas, because we like thin crust. He was right it's awesome unless you don't like thin crust.

Adapt and overcome, I dig it !!! We have tried that too and it works very well.

You missed the mark, Yank. We weren't going for quality here, we were going for price.

I remember as a kid hitting the arcade in Rivergate Mall and then the Pizza Hut buffet. Good times.

When I was in HS, our FFA livestock judging team used to hit the Mr. Gatti's buffet on the way back from field trips. I know that mgr hated seeing 7 or 8 big ol teenage boys coming. One of our guys, once put down 22 slices if pizza (crust and all) on a bet.

Loved the Mr Gatti’s buffet in Green Hills back in the mid 80’s.

I can’t remember the numbers that I heard one time - but they were fine.

They viewed it as “our part of being a good member of the community” but wound up making money anyway because of all the families and such that wound up coming in.

I didn't miss the mark. How about a real Italian pizza from a shop where XL pizzas don't fit in the box and are on sale Mons and Tues for $8.50...?

There are no decent pizzas nearby us in a pinch. Now Sals or Salvos pies are the closest and the best but a bit of a drive....
 I don't care about prices if they are good.

Campiones is great too, but they do Chicago style and only after 3PM and you must preorder because they get bought out quick. You can get them on their flatbread though I still believe. Real Italian by real Italians... Check their menus... great family biz...

If you don’t care about money, Desanos. Wood fired. 
 

Im originally from the NE. I’m a pizza snob. One thing I miss about home. Pizza tastes better out of brick ovens. I think they use old world dough. Tastes like New Haven pizza minus some of the char. 
 

You’re looking at $40 for a pizza. It’s worth it. If you go in person you can build your own infused EEOV and you used to be able to BYOB but they offer wine service. 
 

Close to your area:

Long hollow pizza is around the corner from camps. It’s decent pizza for when you have a pizza maintenance craving to satiate. Sometimes topping heavy. Thursday nights $10 2 topping and a soda or beer. 
 

Used to be a spot in Hendersonville near the movie theatre “slice of ny”. Not sure if still there. Has some flop and grease but tastes like nyc street pizza.

Chicago Brick Oven in Horn Lake was great until they changed locations. The Brick Oven in Southaven was great until they moved to Hernando. Avellino's in Southaven is the best for now. God Father's Pizza in Murfreesboro, AR was great when we went to Crater of Diamonds some 35 years ago. Hurricane Pizza in Pensacola Beach, FL was great some 40 years ago, old beach house turned into a restaurant, before a hurricane wiped it out. Had true Italian pizzas while in Italy 20 years ago, nothing like what we have here.
