Hand Tossed Pepperoni Pizza at Randy’s Premier Pizza, originally uploaded by Aaron Landry.
Bill and I visited Randy’s Premier Pizza for lunch today.
I’ve met award-winning owner pizza Randy Hueffmeier a few times as a friend of mine worked at his Battle Creek location in 2001. That location has unfortunately closed and is back down to just the Oakdale location.
I’m used to their thin crust but decided to take their hand tossed pizza for a spin. It’s cut in triangles instead of squares — I don’t know many places that serve pizza cut both ways.
I blindly ordered a 12″ hand tossed pizza with pepperoni and then we were told to pick out a couple cans of soda in the fridge behind us. I didn’t know there was a coupon that said we get two cans of soda with any 12″ pizza, it was just offered to us. Then we were told there was another coupon for a significant amount of savings. I don’t remember what it was but I think it may have been 50% off if you dine in. Either way our total bill for everything was $6.25.
The pizza had great pepperoni, tasty sauce and had a crispy but chewy crust. The cheese was good but overall the pizza was pretty greasy. For the most part though, the grease works on this pizza. I have no complaints. Unlike some pizzas this one it tastes how it looks. Yummy. This has to be the best pizza value in the entire Twin Cities.
Humorously, Randy’s Premiere Pizza has 30, 36 and 48 inch pizzas. The 30 inch is on the menu for just over $50 while the smaller sizes are inexpensive. I think the largest two sizes are available only upon special request. Can you imagine a 48 inch pizza? I can’t. That’s crazy talk. If you want a shot at winning a 30 inch pizza, there’s a drawing. I’m going to enter.
Bill wrote a lot more and beat me to the punch on posting about it. Check out what he has to say too.
We’ll be back.
UPDATE: Went back and tried the deep dish!

I just got back from dinner and I still want a piece of that pizza. Looks great.
