Next to my work place there is a Zachary's Chicago style pizza which is a local favorite. I am thinking about ordering a pie to bring home after work. But I live 35 miles away; with traffic it can sit in my car for up to 50 minutes. Does it make sense to do this takeout order? Is it common to take a pizza on such a long drive?
Anyway for me to keep the pizza still in tip top condition after such a long drive?
Sure, just get a 12v ice free cooler/heater unit. You can't cook with it, but it'll keep hot stuff hot, until you unplug it. (Coleman says it's set at 170F.) Just be sure you have the "HOT" side of the plug, in. Otherwise, it goes to 60F below ambient...(pizzasickle anyone?) LOL!
Ask them to cook the pizza "lightly" and DON'T slice it. Then, you can take it home, get your oven to 450, and put it straight into the oven...no pan, but directly on the oven rack. Cook till hot!
We actually prefer our pizza the next day. The flavors congeal and taste improves.
We have a cast-iron skillet for doing this---3 pieces at a time. Takes like 5 minutes.
Our friends tease us, but we call it "planning for leftovers" which we do with most of our dishes.
