I am not saying you can’t go to other places, I am simply saying to compare their pan pizza to other types of pizza is as more greasy an invalid comparison. If you wish to compare apples to apples, you have to do so.
IF you like a different style you are free to order it, but to blanketly say Pizza Hut’s pizza is too greasy, when you go in and order a type of pizza crust that is greasy by default, its just not an honest comparison.
Believe me, not defending Pizza Hut, frankly I am fortunate enough to live in a town with lots of mom and pops still operating that offer a vast variety in the pizza spectrum and they will always crush any chain, Papa Johns, Pizza Hut, Dominos, etc.... but you have to compare apples to apples.
You can’t compare a pan pizza to a traditional style and say chain a is better than chain b.... if you like traditional style, you have to compare both of those from both vendors.
Im still thinking about the beers . . .
If you like Schlotsky’s, scroll to nearly the bottom of the linked page. The instructions make it sound more complicated than it is. Really, it’s super simple to make an Original at home. Don’t know about the rye though. I ran the numbers and can make 5 Originals at home with minimal effort for the price of 1 store bought. I’ve since tweaked the bun recipe by adding 1/4 C more flour to make 6 buns which brings the homemade cost down even further. The only other change is leaving off the genoa salami because it’s not sold around here but taste-wise it isn’t missed. I bake the dough recipe (with the extra 1/4 C flour) in a total of 6 small 6” pyrex pie plates and 6” Corning Ware pans/bowls with handles.
Can use food stamps at Papa Murphy’s.
I never have but I had thought about doing it after a long day of doctor visits and shopping but we never stopped there.
If I feel like pizza I will pick up the great take and bakes that Aldi’s started selling as a regular item instead of a special. The ones at Wal-Mart are okay but cost a little more.
Been years since I had Pizza Hut. I don’t like their sauce, crust and the local place has a salad bar that is small with scant choices.
There is a small chain called Pizza Inn that I really like. And if you eat in they have a really nice buffet bar.
When I order Sicilian I expect a 1 1/2" to 2" thick square pie, made with dough that has risen in a pan before baking, no oil - maybe a spray of non-stick if the pans are new, but not oily. Deep dish? That's for Chicago.
Of course, where I am in in northern NJ one chooses by who's making the pies at any one of 5 pizza shops within a mile of the house (there are more than 5, but some just don't make the cut). And that is not a joke, when Mike is cooking at Bruno's then we drive the extra mile. If Angelo isn't at his namesake, we go elsewhere. Want extra thin - Mario's.
Haven't been in a Pizza Hut or Domino's in at least 20 years; 4 or 5 years ago the wife wanted to try Pizzeria Uno - we ate a couple of bites, paid and left.

Soylent Ginger.
Claudine Longet was a cutie but I wouldn't go skiing if she were in the area.
The box Pizza Hut’s pizza comes in tastes better than their pizza....
When we visit Connecticut, we love to visit Randy’s Wooster Street Pizza in Manchester. Lots of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars encased in the tables.
Cici and Mellow Mushroom are good... but homemade is great...
No... not all in downtown Tampa is Eddie and Sam’s New York Pizza made with NY water...good pizza...
If those gross Blake Shelton novelty pizzas are any indication, Pizza Hut is veering into something that’s just not pizza under anyone’s definition. They’re turning into home delivery bar munchies. Might as well start selling fried pickles.
My opinion, if you can’t pull off a decent cheese pizza with excellent crust that is neither too chewy nor limp from grease or condensation, you’re not a pizza place. Then there’s the sauce and the mozzarella, which needs to be reasonably fresh and not imitation product.
Pizza Hut hasn’t been that sort of place in my lifetime, if it ever was.
Pizza Huts seem to vary in quality. My local PH restaurant makes a pretty good pizza, however a new takeout only PH that opened closer to the house is horrible.
Sicilian and Pan Pizza are not the same. You are welcome to disagree, but as someone who made a ton of both of them in my youth I can tell you they are NOT the same thing.
Pizzeria Uno isn’t something I care for either.
However I would not put any of those types of pie against a traditional pizza and then complain that it was breadier, greasier, etc than the traditional... They are not the same thing.
