I buy store made fresh dough .. I make homemade dough ... I have the cornmeal on my large board, I proof it, I do everything the internet suggests .. and I can never have it spread out evenly on my pizza stone.

Easiest for me is just buying the pillsbury dough as it rolls out kinda flat. But that doesnt taste that great.

maybe this thick detroit style where there is no stone but a deep pan will make it easier

I definitely feel your pain with dough making as well...it's a bitch. Just can't ever get it to do right...but again I'm not working with it often either. I really want one of those Uuni Pizza ovens or something like it to make Neapolitan style pizzas, but I'm afraid I'll spend the money, make some pizzas that aren't great...then never use it, and money and time wasted.

I freaking hate it. My family all take turns trying to get it spread out .. always ends up the 3 of us grabbing edges and stretching it out then the damn holes show up and you have to start all over

Im excited about this detroit style .. seems alot easier if I just need to spread it over the bottom of a deep pan vs a scorching hot pizza stone

I used to do a shot of apple cider vinegar with mother before lunch.

I need to get back to doing it

must have "with mother"

I think Ill make a Detroit style pizza for Sunday.

I suck at making and working with dough, I hate dough

Recipe seems super easy ... assuming I can find yeast

My favorite pizza place in Mount Pleasant is a Detroit style restuarant. Good eating.

I'm down 10 lbs in the last month, just been counting calories and trying to clean up my diet, and definitely drinking less. In fact I'm going to do a sober October. Dry January went easier than I thought so I figure why not give the liver another extended rest before the holidays

No alcohol is the way to go if trying to lose weight. Way easier to not make bad dietary decisions when sober.

Taste like hell but add a table spoon of Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother, helps with a ton of different things. Has wiped out my Acid Reflux issues.

Just drink it straight from the spoon? I always hear about A.C.V., but have never tried it myself.

I do. One tablespoon of it , then a bowl of Honey Nut cheerios with fruit and a glass of diet Green Tea with lemon.

I do this every night before bed, definitely has helped with acid reflux which I have a ton of. Just brush your teeth right after because it's hell on your enamel. It's also supposed to help with your insulin levels as well.

Ive been drinking lo carb beers past few months and did some keto diet stuff (hence pork rinds instead of bread crumbs for fried chicken)

and it helps.

Counting carbs is crazy eye opening.

15 net cards in just 10 tortilla chips?
26 carbs in an 8 oz glass of apple juice?
14.6 carbs in in 12 oz bottle of sierra nevada pale ale?
45 grams of carbs in 1 cup of rice ...

pork rinds? 0 carbs
day time laguinitas? 3 carbs

its hard to get that cava or chipotle without the rice or burrito wrap but so many carbs in a kinda neutral flavor food.

Skip the rice, get double meat and drink your lo carb beer without regerts

Carbs add up so fast. Hell, just a sandwich with 2 full pieces of bread puts you at 40+ carbs.

A can of chili threw me for a loop. 540 calories. 18 grams of fat and 48 non-fiber carbs. Shit is terrible for you.

How is the Day Time? I've seen it around, but haven't had it yet.

I like the Kona Light Blonde Ale from Kona Brewing Co.

Day time is good .. for a lo cal. I have 2 drinking nights a week. I drink a sixer of it on a work night and then a sixer/4 pack of something tasty (other half/aslin/elder pine etc) on Saturday nights.

Made chicken kabobs last night and decided to try ground sausage kabobs bc I couldnt find ground lamb ... i put way too much salt in the pork kabobs. I have to stop using course kosher salt for recipes, save that stuff for brining

Chick-fil-A is the best chicken sandwich ever. Waffle fries are the best.

Their chicken biscuit are the best as well.

Anything else is blasphemy

LOL! Hard to argue with their chicken sandwich...I will say I have had ONE...one chicken sandwich from KFC when they came out with theirs that was really, really good...but Chic-fil-a has been doing it consistently for soooo long!
