Has anyone ever heard of Farm Boy Food Distributer? They showed up in our restaurant a couple of weeks ago. They have been bringing in freebies to us and they gave us their catalog of prices. My husband is impressed with their prices and items. They told us they specialize in pizza.
We are on their third sample of cheese. All cheeses have been really good. The first one was great - fun, stretchy, good hot and cold and you didn’t have to use as much cheese as it melted great - it was higher than what we were using. The second sample we lost in the shuffle. We told the staff not to use it until we tried it first or as a last resort. We got our butts kicked last week and staff had to use it.
Yesterday, we tried the third sample. It melted well without using our normal portion of cheese, it tasted great, smelled good and cooked good. The price is good.
Also, pre-sheeted dough vs. dough balls. We have been using pre-sheets but due to cost we are thinking about mixing our own dough. When we bought the restaurant, it came with a 50lb dough mixer and a dough press and air compressor. I think that making our own dough would be better than the pre-sheets. I’m a little concerned about the labor and extra costs for dough ball bags, etc.
Right now our local Pizza Hut is advertising “Try our New and Improved Hand Tossed Dough”. That’s what got us to thinking about our dough and how to make our pizzas better.
