Best restaurant I've ever been to... @mrflynn03 you would have loved their " Hot Sauce Wall. " I could never decide between Shrimp and Rice with Ravagote Sauce or the Chicken Voodoo Enchiladas... And the Gumbo 🤩 Weird, I was just talking about the gumbo at Heaven on 7 last week - I didn’t know it closed. I had the hottest thing I’ve ever had in my life here. The ‘Hot as a Mutha’ - it was a fried habanero stuffed with jalapeño cream cheese. I tried just a tiny bit and I was super uncomfortable for 15 minutes.

Right now I have been on a huge Detroit Style Pizza phase. As far as cheap pizza chains I like Jets right now. Their 8 corner detroit style is pretty darn good for a pizza chain. Detroit style is my favorite. I love the combination of fluffy pan crust with that crunchy frico along the edges. Jet's introduced me to the concept, when I used to live in an apartment complex behind one of their stores, and it's still my favorite chain to order. I'll get an 8 Corner whenever I want to treat myself with greasy, cheesy goodness. Noble Roman's Craft Pizza & Pub does something similar they call a Sicilian, which is apparently what this style was called early on when some thought "Detroit" had too many negative connotations. It's not as big as Jet's, but they put the sauce on the top, which I like. I think brings out the flavor more than when it's buried under a layer of cheese. I recently made the trip up to Fairmount IN to visit Bad Dad Brewing. I'd heard great things about their pizza, and saw they had Detroit-style on the menu. We made the mistake of visiting during their annual James Dean festival, though, and maybe the ensuing rush is why they didn't have any available? We waited about 40 minutes for the Neapolitan pizza we did order, but it was worth it; quality ingredients on a crispy doughy crust, and we got to enjoy some good beer during our wait. There's a Detroit-style place in downtown Indy I want to try called Futuro. Not as far to drive as Bad Dad, but still more than I would normally drive for pizza. So I'm waiting for an opportunity. If anyone has been, let me know how it was. Futuro is next on my list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That whole area is under construction and it's not the easiest place to find either just heads up. It's more of a to go eatery but some tables upstairs.

Indiana City has a taproom right down the block so now I'm thinking I'll take my pizza there and wash it down with some Wicked Reaper.

Sun King is .3 miles away. First time we went to Indiana City, I was not impressed with the beer selection, at all. But... I am more than willing to try it again. Incredibly nice place though, the location you're talking about. Edited October 5, 2022 by btownqb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Costco sells these for $14.99 (2 pack). I've also bought the single pack Supreme at HEB... Awesome for frozen Detroit style pizza... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of my favorite things combined. …..and @IUFLA, next time you’re near a Rosati’s, you can also get a calzone with Italian beef and giardiniera. Also really good, although i recommend getting the giardiniera on the side. The Rosatis calzone is pretty good. Joeys Red Hots in the south suburbs is actually a liitle better, IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really doesn't sound too spicy based on the description. I've had habeneros before and I like spicy food. Maybe it's the deep frying them the sealed in the oils, but it was insane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naturalhoosier Posted November 24, 2022 Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 I have read about doing this for a while but never had. I tried it today and will never do it any other way. Reheating pizza on a skillet on the stove top. Medium heat. A few drops of water on the skillet next to (not on) the pizza. Cover with a large pan lid. 4-5 mins. It crisps up the crust to perfection. Give it a shot if you’ve never tried it! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted November 26, 2023 Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 Bringing this back from the dead. My pizza options are limited. Ordered a BBQ chicken pizza from Papa John's and added jalapeños. It was pretty dang good. Every pizza should have onions no exception, and most should have jalapeños. I like papa johns because I like Shaq. One of my all time favorite NBA players. Larry Bird #1 of course. They say don't meet your "heroes" but Larry was pretty cool when I met him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
