Sadly this is the new norm and will continue for at least the next 10+ years or until everything completely falls apart. I have been consistently short 10-15 employees across my three locations. Drivers, pizza makers, managers and servers. I have been in business nearly 16 years and in the past...

I have 2 of the Peerless ovens currently, I also have several Marsal ovens and a Rotoflex throughout all of my stores. In the past I have also had Blodgets and Bakers Pride. Out of all of these ovens the Peerless was by far the worst quality of all of them. If bakes ok, but the workmanship and...

Anyone know of a distributor in Ohio who sells San Marzano tomatoes? Not, San Marzano “style”.

In addition to the Woodstone take a look at the Marsal MB60 they are bricklined along the top and sides too.

james456: Domino’s crust is not what is widely popular, it is the low price, consistency and efficient delivery that attract and keep Domino’s customers. Most Domino’s customers are not buying the product, they are buying the price.

Always look at things through the eyes of the jury, rather than the letter of the law. Especially when you are dealing with issues that could end up being decided by a civil jury. Beyond that, you as company executive can always be found responsible both civilly and criminally for negligence...

The ones made by WRH Industries are the best that I have every used. They are a sort of plastic / teflon hybrid. Super easy to clean, won’t crack and very hard to scratch. Last time I bought them I got them from nminc.com

I have had a Rotoflex now for about 2 years and while it is not a perfect oven, it is an awesome oven. I replaced a triple stack of XLT-3255 conveyor ovens and the Rotoflex can out do it capacity wise. Very happy with mine.

I am personally not a fan of Lloyd Pans / Pizza Tools disks for any type of a deck oven. They do a great job in a conveyor, but a horrible job in a deck oven. They all leave a raised “bump” regardless of the type, I blown way too much money trying every kind they have and have the same results...

I too have been disappointed with Taradel lately. I have used them on and off for years and have not had any problems, but decided to have them do a direct mail for me this time. The bad experience all boiled down to lack of communication from them. I would send emails and it would take 3-5 days...

We have always used time rather than distance. Some directions we go 3 miles out and the other we go 6.

indie pizza: Look into a glycol system that keeps the beer lines refrigerated all the way from the cooler to the tap handles.

NicksPizza: I compete with several businesses around me that do business this way and when the economy was doing well, my customers loved me. “Great business, Pays his employees well, Super Clean Store, Asset to the Community, etc…” now as the economy has turned I watch my competitors do things...

I have the CE61, which is the electric version of the CW61. IT bakes very well and recovers quite well. However it requires lots of repairs. In the last few years I have replace a door, door hinges, door handles, relays (lots) and elements. The workmanship just doesn’t hold a candle to Bakers...

Take a look at Turbochef.

In my opinion, baking directly on the stone will give you a superior product as opposed to using screens, however you may want to do some experimintation as the bottom of your pizza may cook faster than you like. If you don’t want to use cornmeal, you can use semolina or just plain flour. Just...

Have had Foodtec for over 3 years and love it. Can do all that you need except #6. Two big thumbs up - very rock solid.

Does anyone have any experience dealing with a reputable leasing company? I am need of additional equipment and want to go the leasing route to free up some cashflow.

pizzapiratespp: Did you do everything yourself or did you have someone assist you? And how about the scans, who did you use for those?

Who has gotten themselves all PCI compliant? Not just making sure their processor is compliant, but making sure your internet devices, network, POS software, and all that good stuff is compliant and completed the required paperwork, done the scans by an approved vendor and submitted it all to...
