How thick is the crust for this pizza?

For this recipe, we are using 1 pound of dough which will make one 14-inch pizza. It is not too thin and not too thick. I would consider this a regular crust. Dough for a regular crust pizza should be rolled 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.

If I am using fresh pizza dough, should I bake the dough prior to adding the sauce and topping?

There is no need to bake the pizza dough before adding the toppings. The bake time (18-20 minutes) will allow plenty of time for the dough to cook through.

What is the best way to reheat pizza?

Heat your oven to 350°F. Wrap the pizza in foil so the pizza crust doesn't continue to brown. Place the pizza on a baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes. An air fryer is also great for reheating pizza if you have one!u003cbr/u003e

Notes

Seasoning your ground beef is a must! Don’t just brown the beef — give it a little upgrade!
Allow your fresh to come to room temperature before you begin stretching and rolling it out. It will be much easier to work with your dough when it’s not cold.
And while we’re on the subject of “rolling dough.” You’ll actually wasn’t to use your hands to stretch the dough first as much as possible before rolling it. Get it to the size you need, then use a roller to finish the process. Minimize the rolling as much as you can, as this will stiffen your dough.
When baking your pizza, use a pizza stone (paid link) if you have one handy. Pizza stones mimic the result you would get from a brick pizza oven (like the legit pizzeria’s use). The stone retains heat well and evenly.
