Pizza Feed

The Pizza Feed is a tradition from Back In Somebody Else's Day, in which slugs gather and dump their choice of toppings on crusts for general make-your-own-pizza happiness, often accompanied by a movie.

The Fall '05 Pizza Feed was Saturday, September 24th; we watched Stand and Deliver, which met with widely varying degrees of enthusiasm. A few notes on the amounts/ingredients/buying stuff involved in the Pizza Feed (that probably won't interest anyone but me):

• Crust
  • Super-secret fantastic recipe courtesy of Gina's Mom
  • Ingredients (for ~40 people): just over 10lbs flour, ~1/4 gallon olive oil, 1 jar yeast, H20.
  • Prepare and stack on layers of tin foil (greased with olive oil); be prepared for stacks to tip and the top few layers to rise if left for very long
• Toppings
  • Things that are good to get from Haymarket: mushrooms (1/2 lb), pineapple (1), peppers (red & green, 2 or 3 each), tomatoes (2lbs), garlic (not much), broccoli (1 or 2 heads)
  • Things that are good to get from Star: mozzarella cheese (4 bags will cover it), tomato sauce (5 cans), olives (1 can), pepperoni (2 or 3 packages), ham (1 package), chicken (if not yet over budget & if you have the time to pre-cook it)
• Miscellaneous
  • Soda (five two liters, best obtained from Star, along with plastic cups; Slugs seem to be most fond of Cherry Coke but variety's always good.)
  • Aluminum foil (also best obtained from Star).

For the Hall Rush pizza feed, we used about double these amounts (although with much more soda) and came out pretty accurately with what we needed.
