Making Dominos Pizza At Home (2 Ways) | But Better 

It's really stupid how easy cooking is and yet we all overthink it. I've learned so much in just a month, my grocery bills have shot up but I'm cooking way more than ordering in. Thanks for the inspiration Joshua.

i appreciate the fact that he straight up said "its like cafeteria pizza but its still tastes good cuz bruh im not gonna pretend like bread and cheese is bad... but we can do better" a lot of the foodtubers doing "but better" stuff would have acted like they were eating literal rotten garbage when we all know its probably pretty tasty

hi joshua, i'm italian and currently working at a local pizzeria in my city. I'm just here to spread MY and OUR personal way to make pizza at our pizzeria (wich is actually pretty good ngl): For the dough my personal recommendation is to stick with the basic italian recipe, so 4 ingredients: water, salt, yeast and flour. Then we can continue to the sauce; the ingredient I put in 5 litres of sauce is: -about 10 to 15 leaves of Basil -about a cup of olive oil -about half a cup of oregano -10 twists of pepper -¾ of a cup of water -and lastly a big pinch of salt. Then, when you're rolling the dough, you have to make sure that you leave a nice crust on the edge (wich should be about from a half to an inch high) and the rest should be pretty thin, i mean, really thin. What we're going to do next is to put our sauce on top of the dough, the amount is personal preference, then we are going to put our favourite ingredients (e.g. pepperoni in this case) over the sauce before finishing with about 100 grams of fiordilatte cheese, chopped in stripes. In the place I work we usually cook pizzas i'd say from 570 to 615 fahrenheit (like 300 to 320 celsius). After about a minute at that temperature the pizza should begin to grow a bit, at that point you take something to slide underneath the pizza (we use a normal pizza shovel) to raise the pizza of a inch for a second or two, so that air can pass between the pizza and the oven. after another minute, when you notice that the edge of the pizza is changing color from white to ocra yellow, you take the pizza shovel and rotate the pizza. after that in about 30 seconds the pizza should be perfect and ready to eat. Thank you for your time and enjoy your pizza. English is obviously not my first language (as i said i'm italian), so i apologize for all the grammar and lexical errors that might be in the way, I hope that everything is clear.

I tried replicating Dominos myself a while back, one thing I'd add to your dough is semolina, I'd make about 25-30% of the flour coarse semolina, it helps with the colour, but gives it an amazing crunch and much stronger texture and chew too.

You and Kendrick's energy is what I strive for in a friend

PSA: Always order off the app so you don't pay $50 for 2 pizzas.

50$ for 2 medium pizzas wtf

Josh, this pizza changed my pizza game forever. I can finally stop ordering takeaways. Saving money as well. Forever grateful.

Couple of things I learned: Do not center load a pizza. And how to stretch out your dough. Those things alone will up your pizza game.

josh is the only one to make me question my entire culinary existence.

i just bought your cook book this week and ive tried making a few of the things in there. Everything has been fantastic so thanks for a great cook book.

I’ve made this recipe with the overnight rest and the 2 hour room temperature rest and they both work perfectly. The 24 hour dough is better as Josh says, however the 2 hour initial rest works well too and still tastes incredible- and I didn’t find it that much harder to handle than the 24 hour dough. Kneadless to say (Ha, get it?!) this is my favourite pizza dough recipe. Sugar and all.

Starting to realise I'm not only watching because I love food and you guys bring the hunger, but also because you've got such a good vibe. It makes me happy...thank you for that

I would totally like to see Josh do a hamburger helper episode.

Brutal, just did the though with the 2 hours rest and it was the best homemade pizza I've ever had. I've been looking for something like this for a long time

I gotta say, I don't think I'll ever be able to follow one of Joshua's recipes, but it's always satisfying to watch him cook

I want to see an episode of you and Kendrick cooking, you know the stuff, you tell him what to do, he doesn't see anything and so on :)

Kendrick is gaining more power by the week. Someday, the crunches will echo through the ages and he’ll teleport to all the homes like Santa to provide more crunches to all the children.

When making pizza I always put my hands in a triangular shape. With both thumbs touching along with the pointer fingers. I use BARELY my fingertips to make the crust, going all the way around. Then I keep one hand stationary(on the dough) while moving the other in a circular direction on the dough, stretching it to the size desired. If it begins stretching back into place, I lift it up carefully and use my knuckles to go under the dough and stretch it using my wrist if necessary, only one or two times, then setting it back down.

The Domino's pizza's in Europe have a not-so-magic ingredient that adds a lot to the crunchyness that makes it stand out compared to other pizza's: it's a sort of dried corn powder they roll the dough in. Big difference.

Domino’s USED to be great and tasted good when I was younger because it actually was better!! The processed product they churn out now is completely different from my teenage years. And I totally agree Josh, the lack of chew in their dough is such an unforgivably glaring issue that ruins the entire pizza experience… it kinda just melts away in your mouth, which I’ve concluded is probably intentional on their part so you eat more, hence order more.

Just make Kendrick do all the taste tests... dude is so funny

I didn't have the stuff or patience to make the dough so I just used two flower tortillas stacked on top of each other with some cheese in the middle so that it's thicker. I used your sauce recipe with some diced bell peppers and ripped up turkey as toppings. For the cheese I grated up some super expensive sharp cheddar that my sister gave me for christmas. For the crust I literally just cut a circle out of the tortilla and used the outside edge. spreading the garlic oil on the outside of the 'crust' will cause it to rise when baking stopping all the all the ingredients from lava flowing onto your baking sheet. When it's all said and done it cuts and serves surprisingly well. Super cheap and easy 25-30 minute pizzas

Finally got your book 🥳🥳🥳👍🏻looking forward too trying these things out 👌🏽

When your dude takes a bite and literally *starts laughing* you've got something.

I love how I always watch these as if I’m ever going to make my own dough or stop ordering Dominos 😅❤

Immaculate energy as per usual, loved this.

My new favorite channel! Josh, your personality is amazing and you food........DELICIOUS!!!

10:09 "try this corner piece" *CRUNCH* *wheeze* I love that

the super quick singing and then “stop singing because i can’t use it” from the background had me laughing hysterically. love your videos, happy new year 👍🏻🍺👊🏻

I made your pan pizza recipe and pizza just came out of the oven.... OMG, so good! The dough is phenomenal.

i like how is straight to point no bs in the middle of it

$50 🤯🤯 this is why I don’t order pizza lol

Gotta agree on this one, Josh. There's NO beating a pan pizza cooked in a cast iron skillet. I might've grown up on Pizza-Hut in the 80s, but I still remember their dine-in locations bringing out that pan pizza in those handle-less iron skillets. It really is one of the secrets to baking in a home oven.

love this guy , he makes cooking fun and funny...

Made this tonight, very tasty and super easy.

I love when Kendrick is the taste tester. I have the same reactions when I eat great food

They all got cheap like so many places from restaurants to retail. It used to be really good I go there now for one thing, to purchase their delicious garlic butter in bulk. Customer request, can you do a dominoes garlic butter but better video?

I made it. It's incredible! The crust you get is delicious

Made this tonight for the kids (the first one.) So excellent Josh. I didn't put it in the fridge over night, as I didn't have the time. Still amazing. Made all 3 pizza's, and a family of 6 has no left overs. Thank you good sir.

Joshua your pizza looks way better than Domino's, looks amazing 😋 but I would just add more pepperoni.

Kendrick is so stinkin' adorable with all of his reactions, just jeez. Where does Josh find all of these awesome people to work for him???

Amazing, I'm going to take the test here in Brazil, my friend. thanks 😮👏👏👏👏

Happy new year

PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA IS FANTASTIC. Thank you, Josh. It’s time someone with a platform said it LOUD AND CLEAR!

I got your cookbook for Christmas aswell as the mixer you use (I can't remember the name) I can't wait to do some cooking the right way!

Loving the ltd black edition Gozney. I have the same (except not the limited black one) and its an amazing pizza oven.

The butter in the sauce is so good. Thanks for that. 😋👍

I was craving some pepperoni now is one more reason to try a new pizza recipe thank you

Pineapple pizza gang lesss gooo 🤟 thank you Josh for representing and defending. People always think it's weird or gross until they try it

Awesome video man 😎

This editing gives me whiplash good lord. I have your book though, you magical person, You!

Successfully making the food that you used to love as a kid has got to be one of the best accomplishments ever.

Being European I still can't get my head around how much sugar you put in bread might be one of the biggest culinary difference

just found you the other day, can't wait to try in my DIY pizza oven I just finished. thanks

I want to make this! Love Kendrick…. Keeping using him for taste testing! I make your pancake recipe all the time. ❤

Having Kendrick on the show is literally amazing. Idea for a show: Josh and Kendrick do a walkthrough of how to cook a meal, and then we can see how easy it actually is to complete for us average joes based on how well kendrick can imitate Josh's cooking

4:58 Uncle roger would be proud 🥲👏

We live in a world where stretched dough, melted shredded cheese, and thin cut sausage from a fast food restraunt costs 50 bucks.

I made the pan pizza and holy smokes was it good! I could heard the crunch and taste the deliciousness of it all 😫 as a dominos lover, I approve this recipe!

This is crazy, one of Josh's first But Better's was Dominos, bringing it back 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I would love to see you do the Domino's pan pizza. Hint though it's actually like a biscuit pizza dough instead. I used to work there and there are little fat bits through out the dough.

Honey and pizza is an underrated combo. Something about it just takes things to the next level.

I TRIED THIS RECIPE AND DAMN ITS SO GOOOD!!!!

Just got your cookbook! I'm super excited to read it :D

But better LETS GOOO🎉🎉

I just realized...your channel and videos are so good, people don't even realize they've subscribed to you I mean I just noticed I was subscribed yet don't remember subscribing, but I don't regret it

I can’t believe I just found this guy his videos are so entertaining and all he’s doing is cooking

Honey on pizza is always great. The pineapple I feel you need to add peppers with it so you have a balance of sweet and spicy.

domino’s pan pizza crust has tiny chunks of butter in the dough. just in case you wanted to make your dough as close as the domino’s pan pizza crust. let me know if this helps! love, a domino’s manager

You + Kendrick are so great on camera together. Love it!

On point

OOOOOO JOSHY VIDEO ME LIKEY

i've always said the sauce is way to sweet!!!! glad i'm not the only one

Seeing the bottom of that pan pizza definitely made my mouth water 😋

Great editing on this one

I just want to call out Kendrick for the dope MCDM shirt and representing us D&D nerds well. May your magical powers continue to grow man! Matt would be proud of the vibes for the video and always trying to do cool shit!

OMG Josh! I know exactly what I'll be doing for New Year. Looks amazing!

Pepperoni & Pineapple is my favorite. Add some bacon and black olives... Mmm... Chefs kiss

I love the chaos in these videos😂

I watched almost all of your videos, this one is my favorite by far.

So for real this man knows what he's doing! My wife just made homemade pizza based of this video and 💥🔥🔥 it's that good! Reminds of classic American crust - crispy and buttery. Wow

Made this and have a few lessons I learned The sauce NEEDS the San Marzano tomatoes OR a lot of sugar. Otherwise it ends up way too acidic USE MORE SEMOLINA THAN YOU THINK YOU NEED ON YOUR PEEL AND BOARD! I cannot stress this enough. My first pizza split in two since it stuck to the peel. I used an oven and used some parchment paper with lots of semolina and that worked a charm for making the pizza. It was easy to put in and out, easy to put on and take off and overall made a far better product. I just ended up using the palm of my hand with a bit of olive oil to shape the pizza Cut your pepperoni thick but not too thick otherwise it isn't nice When making the garlic butter, WATCH IT COOK! Watch EVERY SECOND of the melting process. I ruined two pots of it because I walked away for 30 seconds while it was on the lowest it could go and came back to black and burning butter and garlic. I had no idea butter was this sensitive

I cannot be the only person who will layer the toppings inside the cheese instead of throwing them all on top. Sauce, half the cheese, toppings, other half of the cheese. I think it makes the pizza a bit more concise, but I haven't seen anyone else do this.

5:19 *SMALL* ?

The pan pizza is a work of art !

This video is making my mouth water.

9:55 i too one day aspire to have a pizza so good i go full goofy

This recipe tastes great. I'm a pretty mediocre cook and actually made it edible on the first try. I've yet to try it, but I think the part I messed up was using regular fresh mozzarella instead of the reduced moisture stuff

I will try some butter in the sauce. Try a few splashes of worcestershire sauce as well for depth of flavour!

the sound of the pizza crunch though 🤣😆👌

YOOOOOOO I was litterally just thinking Id love a Domino's Pan Pizza but better!!!! Thanks Josh, this is gonna be fun!

6:16 ngl it really looked like he was shoving that raw pizza into someones mailbox for a sec

Wow, your pizza versions look way better and more mouth-watering than Domino's. Super crunchy, smoky, and saucy, but the garlic touch was just amazing!

Totally agree, this is not about making an Italian pizza, it's about making a Dominos pizza, but better... and that pizza just looks delicious.

I've never had a dominos pizza that was properly cut. Never not once

I worked at dominoes for over 2 years . they literally buy some of the cheapest ingredients and upcharge by a very large margin where as a pizza may cost 2.50 cents to make your gonna pay 15$ dollars for it minimum and it's the cheapest ingredients available with a meat rating of F in the US . plastics have been discovered im dominoes food aswell as most foods we eat in the us

We love you joshua

Honestly I think both look solid and I can’t choose which one is better

Kendrick and josh reviews are always hilarious 😭😭
