    Business Donations

    I have had several requests for these “Pizza Competitions” from church groups. I would rather they just ask for free food. They end up getting a bunch of different pizzas. Then label them with numbers so the people actually have no idea what pizza is what unless they have had it before. I did...

    Breakfast Pizza

    Do any of you have this on your menu? I have been playing with putting one on my menu for the weekend. Currently I buy sausage gravy as the base, add green peppers, eggs, and pork sausage. Its missing something. The sausage gravy base is bland. I also have put on our white pizza base with garlic...

    What's with the Chipotle style pizza joints?

    I really wanted to like pie 5 as well, but I agree the pizza was awful. It was cold and undercooked I think this is a good business model and I know its coming to my market soon, but at least Pie 5 still has some work to do on their ovens in my opinion

    Restaurant.com

    I contacted them this morning. They took it down. I explained to them a simple apology was not going to cut it as I now have time and money involved. I am waiting on a call from a “manager”. I am not sure what direction to go with this

    Question about my dough trays

    I don’t really know, I didn’t question it. We had a couple of cracked on the edges ones. He made me get rid of those right away. He then said we can’t use the fiberglass ones and said by next inspection he would like to see them gone. I got a good deal on a bunch of plastic ones so I just...

    Cupcakes

    We sell them. They sell well. We bake them in the brick oven. We bake them once a week. Freeze them then daily pull them out and ice them. I cannot tell the difference between a frozen and thawed cupcake and one just baked. The markup on them is fantastic

    Dough balling machine?

    Paul- That was the first thing we did was put a new screw in it. Then I had it rebuilt in the gears. No Idea what it is at this point, hence why its going to the company. Luckily didn’t pay much for it at the beginning (and wasn’t worth anything)

    Dough balling machine?

    I have both. The round does roll a much tighter ball. The univex works just not as well, and not as fast. However, I bought a round used off the internet. It puts little pieces of gray dough on the balls so I don’t use it. Have been trouble shooting with the company for months now. I am going...

    Festival Pizza

    We are setting up for a large country festival. We are doing slices. Just standard slices. Pepperoni, cheese, supreme, etc. However, I would like to do one that is just out there. Something unique. Could be anything, most these people are about 15 beers deep so I think something unique would go...

    Hot water heater

    Im dine in and do not have a stove. I thought about getting some hot plates, but I figured we would just have an awful night. This store has been open less than a year and worried about hour waits, not clean dishes and the damage that would do long term opposed to just losing out on a day and half.

    Hot water heater

    Had my igniter switch break at one of my stores on Saturday night. Had to end up closing that night and Sunday because we couldn’t get the part till Monday morning. Plumber said its good to have an extra on hand. Figure I would pass the lesson along so you don’t end up closed a few days for a...

    Tip Jar

    I have one and could not see not having one. 2 reasons- One it gives your employee an extra incentive to be nice to customers. Sure that is their job even without a tip, but the fact of working for a tip makes it that much easier to make sure for good customer service. The second is you can get...

    Festival

    Completely agree Royster. Its in the middle of the summer in a college town. 40,000 people concert. The town is dead while this is going on. I have two stores to spread this out over, so the stores have ample ability. Just trying to get some insight on the best way to handle this. This is...

I already have a propane Lincoln conveyor. I would like to get some feedback on how your guys do big...

    Unemployment Appeal

    I know, originally I was just going to let it slide. However the more I thought about it the more I got worked up. To make matters worse, he comes in the other day. Order a pizza. Puts about 50 toppings on it just to be complicated, orders two beers and tells my bartender he will tip him next...

    Unemployment Appeal

    So I fired a guy for sexual harassment. He files for unemployment. I send in the form, but failed to submit the signed handbook form. Anyways, he gets unemployment. I appealed and now we have a hearing. He proceeds to call me saying he was fired because of discrimination and he will pursue this...

    PH lawsuit

    This could be awful advice, but keep going. Im sure your local paper would love to pick up an article how Pizza Hut is suing a local independent restaurant for giving pizzas to children for academic accomplishments . That’s advertising you cant buy. Then again, when this backfires and you owe a...
