    Cheese recovery

    We scoop it up and put it in a 1/3 pan to us on our Super Supremes. It does help repurpose and the pizza has all the ingredients on them anyway.

    I raise prices when I need to. I get very few complaints. When somone ask me why I raised my prices. I tell them I choose to buy quality ingredients, instead of cheap ingredients, and my employees deserve more than minimum wage.

    Help needed - online ordering trouble

    Your best bet is to go through you POS provider. We use Micro Works Prism. I have no issues with it and you are not paying 3rd party fees. It is a large upfront cost for a new POS system. ChowNow is not a bad option. Yoiu can even get a printer with it.

    What would you consider your most successful idea?

    This wasn’t my idea. People who are smarter than me suggested I do this. I put an ad in the local good new paper (circulation 18,000 people they claim) I gave away a free small cheese pizza. If the wanted to add pepperoni it was a dollar extra per topping. I did it for 3 days. We gave away 548...

    Fraudulent transactions

    We get the short end of the stick on those. Your processor can add security steps like cvc #, the card holders zip, I believe they can even ask for the street number. When I get one, my POS allows me to black list the phone number. If we get an order from that phone number it requires a manager...

    Would you be willing to offer a free pizza?

    Steve, We have a good news paper in town. They claim their circulation is 18,000. I have never had any success with them in the past. This was my last attempt with them. I read a book called the Wizard of Ads, he said the problem is tnot who you use, it is your ad. I took out a 1/2 page ad that...

    Tavern Style in Air Impingement Oven

    I do a thin and crispy. It is about a medium crispy. We parbake the crust about 3/4 done for the heavy pies. They come out crispy and don’t sag when you hold them up. We also do the same for cheese pizzas. We will push the cheese pizza the length of the pan to shorten the cook time. I comes out...

    From Deck to Conveyor...afraid it will sacrifice quality

    I have aways use conveyor ovens. I bake thin and crispy crust, deep dish, and hand tossed pizzas. There is still a lot of work involved in getting pizzas cooked properly. We parbake the heavy pies with a lot of toppings. We often take them out of the pan to bake on the belt the last 2-3 minutes...
