Double pizza weekend.

[DKM]

I'm already planning a deep dish for Saturday and just got request (demand) for a New York for Sunday.

It's going to be fun

Hi DKM,
    I'm new to this forum & am a lover of Lou Malnati's pizza.  Living in Chicagoland makes it easy to enjoy, but would like to duplicate (as many have).  Question, in the sauce, is it recommened that the 6-1 sauce be the All-Purpose Ground variety or Peeled Ground variety.  Also, do you know where I can purchase the 6-1 sauce in the Chicago area or does it have to be ordered Online form Escalon?.   Thanks for any help you can offer.

Also forgot to ask if anyone know if Lou Malnati's restaurant sells their used baking pans or who they buy them from?

Any Italian Food Store has 6 in 1. In the Southwest Burbs, there's a store on 143rd and Wolf Road. Not much difference in peeled or unpeeled.

I purchased my pans on E-bay.  Used to belong to Pizza Inn.

Thanks.. The one I normally use is one I purchased years ago, made by Sassafras ot of Evanston, Il.   It's pretty well seasoned & never seen soap, but I'm sure Lou's are black as can be.  I also have a cast iron skillet from my mom which is about 12" at the bottom, but have never tried using it for zaaa.  Any suggestions?

Do you think the type of pan makes a noticable differance?

How did your pizzas come out DKM?

The deep dish turned out pretty good.

The New Yorks were only 'OK' in my book the the parents like them.
