loved looking at nicks pics here is our little pizza barn its been quite a journey we started excactly one year ago buying the property,traveling all over the south buying equipment from ebay auctions etc. setting the building up ,setting the equipment up , adding equipment ,getting rid of equipment ,trying all types of things 😃 some ideas work most dont but its been fun , stressful :x laughable , met alot of really cool people that have steered us in the right direction.never relized how much pizza some familys can eat in one week!never relized there were two different time parrelels my 30 min. = there 10 min. but we have had fun. i think were doing just fine considering we have never had a restaurant heck i was a diesel mechanic before this! but i approched this with this attitude ( im a good eater,i know good food, i know good service, and i appreciate fair prices. and thats how i run my business !!! hope you enjoy

pizzabarntn,

That has got to be the most original pizza shop idea I’ve ever seen. Personally, I’ve never had an original idea in my life so kudos to you. I’m glad to see you up and running and hope business starts kicking for you guys over there. Congratulations again.

I particularly love the ingenious use of building. It has so much going for it, fits right into the concept, economy of space, expandability, brightly decorated. It’s the kind of roadside place my wife and I would stop when we travel. Great work, guys.

I was trying to get an idea where you are and now I know.

It’s the place where Jed Clampett, Granny, Elly Mae and Jethro came from and just around the corner from where Goma Pyle lived … well golllleee, well golllleee. 😛

wow…
I love it! Way to think outside the box.
I hate being in the strip malls.
Your place has the ability to become a true destination place.
Two questions…
How secure is that barn?
Can you move it?

Thanks!

Sounds like a nice place to sit back on the ol’ rockn chair with a corn cob pipe, a good book (not Nick 'cuse he can’t read real good 😛 ), a good Western Australian Merlot red wine and a packet of nuts. Relax in heaven.

Yo bro,sorry don’t recall the question on fries but very simple…
make fries as normal ladel some pizza sauce on top then handful of mozz,and top off w/ a little mix of garlic powder,oregano and dried basil.Then throw in the left side of your window of your Lincoln oven just to melt the chses.Crab fries are another one of my bib sellers,just toss your fries w/ some ‘Old Bay’ seas.,top w/ mozz. and bake off.Amazing how much you can do w/ just fries and make a hell of a profit using what you already have in your store.Peak at my menu www.goombaspizzaria.com
B/t/w That fire plug story had me on the dang floor.

well it could be moved its just set down on cement blocks much like a trailer would be i guess you could use mobile home anchors to secure it into concrete1 or if you mean could someone break into? in about 2 seconds heres my theroy if someone wants in there gonna get in regardless. i figure less damage is better we keep about 20.00 dollars easy to find and hope they would be on there way the sheriff keeps a good eye on the place seein how we feed them for free and i told them no more food if i get broke into 😃 and were on a busy hwy. well busy for here.and my manager lives next door in my other building . and shes up all night ! aah to be young and single 😛 and the best part of the whole deal is what it cost me for property, building, equipment, etc you could not duplicate it in most parts of the country but it can be done if your willing to get out drive for equipment do alot of the grunt work yourself and not really get carried away with what you think you want but what you really need 😉 to get the doors open. and start making pizzas and cash.

example i just got back from atlanta today!!
like new hobart flash bake oven 225.00 dollars
panisonic 220 volt commercial microwave 75.00 dollars
pizza hut express hatco double deck warmer for breadsticks and personal pan pizzas 120.00 like new

i just cringe when people tell me what they pay for equipment new
