  • Prep the Personal Size Dough when you receive your dough off your weekly food truck for best proof​​

  • Sauce Swirl should start 1/2 inch from pizza's edge​

  • 3/4th cup of Mozzarella sprinkled on top​

  • Remember to use the new Toy Story 5 10" box!

ALl ABout the Quality

Awesome job to the following stores for leading product quality! This is based off the AI system/camera right above every cut station. When a box is closed. AI technology rewinds the clock a second or two to capture a picture of the product and grade each pizza as a pass or fail. The key components are crust size and roundness (Looking for 1" crust), cheese distribution (no red edges or spots of missing cheese), and topping distribution. It counts the pepperoni so using the right amount every time. It takes everyone on the same page and everyone doing their part to produce high scores. The national PJ average is 63%
