00:00My husband and I run the pizza shop, and he's like, I've got to FaceTime you.

00:23I'm so confused on this.

00:24Yeah, let me tell you.

00:25Yeah, because I've done 10,000 of these and I've never seen...

00:29So we do take-and-bake because pizza doesn't travel too well.

00:32Correct.

00:33If it gets to your house in 30 minutes, you're like, this is okay pizza.

00:35Right.

00:36We have five stars on Google with over 300 reviews because you cook it at home.

00:42Okay, so it doesn't matter that you don't have the pizza oven, it's already like 90% done?

00:45Totally.

00:46It's done, it's almost like a twice baked.

00:49What kind of style is this?

00:50So we call it Detroit style.

00:52You're calling it Detroit style?

00:54Yep.

00:54Not cutting it like a Detroit though.

00:56We cut it just so it's easier to eat.

01:01Repeat and repeat.

01:04Husband and wife, yeah.

01:08Thank you.

01:09How long have you guys been doing it for?

01:11Five years.

01:12Just the two of us.

01:13Always this way?

01:14Always.

01:15Yeah.

01:16Do you sell it online or just you have to come and do it this way?

01:19It's super light.

01:20Yeah.

01:22Pick up and deliver.

01:23Do you want me to give you some space?

01:26Like a lineman.

01:28Like a lineman.

01:29It looks heavy and it feels light.

01:32Very good.

01:33That's what you want.

01:34So Detroit style, very Detroit looking with the sauce.

01:37So if you didn't hear, in all the pizza reviews we haven't had this.

01:42Which is you pick it up and you cook it yourself.

01:45What degree do you tell people to do it?

01:47425 for about 8-10 minutes.

01:49425, 825.

01:50The only thing I can vaguely think is Detroit Pizza Company.

01:54But during the frozen pizza they were sending it with the spade and then you put the sauce.

01:59It was great.

02:00So you guys don't have a sit down area.

02:01That's all.

02:02Yeah.

02:03Okay.

02:04Because they don't want...

02:05We also pop up at a brewery down the street.

02:06Okay.

02:07You can go get hot pizza there.

02:08Where?

02:09Off Color Brewing.

02:10Off Color Brewing.

02:11Yeah, it's right down the street.

02:21They nailed the light part.

02:24For Detroit style height, it's as light as you can get.

02:28Alright.

02:29What were you guys doing before this?

02:31What made you do this?

02:32He worked at Salesforce and I worked at a corporate job as well.

02:35How'd you land in pizza?

02:36You know, he's always cooking and he's like, let's do this.

02:39We opened up a food truck.

02:40He's like, I'll do it myself.

02:41And then a couple weeks goes by and he goes, you need to quit your job.

02:44I was like, yeah.

02:45So we had a food truck.

02:46COVID happened.

02:48Then we did this pickup on Fridays and that blew up.

02:52So then we kept going with it and then opened up more days.

02:56And yeah.

02:57So how's it going?

02:58Fantastic.

02:59Yeah?

03:00Yeah.

03:01Really, really good.

03:02Really good.

03:03As good Detroit as I've had in Chicago.

03:06I don't know who else even does Detroit in Chicago.

03:08It's a little bit of a unique style for Detroit.

03:10Very, very good Detroit style.

03:12I think he knows how I score Detroit.

03:14Yeah.

03:16Like 7.5 is kind of an average Detroit.

03:20This is far better than a 7.5.

03:22I'd go all the way up to like.

03:29A 7.8.

03:30And I'm going to be honest.

03:32It may be the taste.

03:34It's not piping hot.

03:36Yeah.

03:37Is that always how you do it?

03:38No, but we don't make it here typically, right?

03:40So that's what I'm saying.

03:41You can make it crispier at home.

03:43Correct.

03:45Look at how you are.

03:46If this was me doing it, I would have cooked it longer and had it crispier and hotter.

03:50And maybe it's like 7.9 even touching into the 8, which is almost impossible for a Detroit style for me.

03:56But it is so light.

03:58You really don't see this light of a Detroit, which I like.

04:01So very unique.

04:03So five square pizza and bakery.

04:05You bake and take and make it in your own oven.

04:08Interesting.

04:09Yep.

04:10Very good.

04:11Thank you so much.

04:13Congratulations.

04:14Thank you.

04:15Nice to meet you.

04:16Can I get a picture with you?

04:17Yeah, of course.

04:18Hey, good.

04:19How are you?
