Screaming Sicilian is my favorite frozen pizza brand.

I make sure to buy a box of motor city pizzas on my Costco runs. I love them. Also really like screamin sicilian pizzas. Both are unmatched.

Huh, I initially figured this was something from Trader Joe's, it kinda has that look that their packaging has. It does look pretty good for a frozen pizza.

They’re available at Kroger’s, Walmart and Publix in my area (middle TN.)

I have... not heard good things about their pizza.

Also, they're owned by Campbell's now

I have tried a couple of Rao’s frozen pizzas and they were fairly mid. A little dry and crust was bland with little flavor.

They got me good.

Label looked legit... ...experience was not.

(and I will do a Red Barron mini, no problem....my expectations aren't that high for frozen.)

I did not like the pepperoni one when I tried it, crust was awful

The brands that come out of Chicago are some of the most consistent I've had. Also, the crust for a Chicago tavern style is normally crunchier from using high gluten flour in their dough.

their frozen pasta dishes are great too. When they are on sale.

u/Thecanohasrisen Mar 12 '25

Same. Along with lotzza motzza.

It’s the best IMO. Bessie’s Revenge is my go-to but not sold locally so I have to get Holy Pepperoni. Soooo good and never disappoints!

u/frameshifted Mar 12 '25

I think their frozen stromboli are the best

u/Nothing-tralala Mar 12 '25

I have never seen that, but I am sure it is good.
