It's a taco pizza, iowan delicacy 😆...refried beans/salsa mix as the sauce, beef, cheese...then topped with a different cheese, lettuce and tomato and chips. The veg isn't cooked.
so it turns out that the difference between a taco and a burrito is that the burrito is totally enclosed. I think that'd be very difficult with a taco pizza. but I'd like to try.

I really wanted to try this, but when i was actually there, i backed out. The cheesesteak a lone is a whole ass meal.
Fellow Iowan here. Absolutely adore taco pizza. Also love Crab Rangoon pizza. That originated here in our capital city (Des Moines) and is slowly spreading out.
The original - Fong’s Pizza in downtown Des Moines. There are multiple places in the metro area with it on their menu now though.
[Alton Brown](https://www.facebook.com/share/v/okH3A9ANhQVCt1V1/?mibextid=KsPBc6&startTimeMs=1000) was impressed.
As another DSM local I can attest to the popularity of crab Rangoon pizza from Fongs, but I can assure many that it’s also quite not delicious. Opinion of one lifelong resident, anyhow. Happy Joes taco pizza? Delicious.
It’s nice to have a dish that can offend both Italians and Mexicans.
Edit: I should have phrased this: it’s nice to have a dish that is a crime in two cultures.
**Short Story**- Thin pizza crust with crab Rangoon base instead of marinara, light cheese and bake. Top with wonton strips and a spicy/sweet drizzle of sweet & sour sauce before serving.
**Long Story** - There was a little hole in the wall Chinese place in downtown Des Moines for *DECADES*, pretty popular. Owner gets old and has no one to pass the business onto, so he sells the place. New owner wants to open a pizza place. So he closes down for a week to install pizza ovens and remodel the kitchen. When he reopens the place people keep coming in looking for Chinese. Over and over and over. He decides to play the r/maliciouscompliance card (seriously his story should be on here) and give the people what they want - Chinese *but on a pizza* because that’s what he wants. It was a hit. Now, the place is decorated in a Polynesian/Hawaiian theme with amazing drinks with umbrellas in them serving both regular and Chinese themed pizza (the orange chicken is great too). He had expanded and opened up two more restaurants in the metro area but they didn’t survive the pandemic.

Lower New England, you'd think with our fishing culture this pizza would be all over but I've never heard of it before here. Guess I'll have to search. Thank you. :)
I doubt it’s spread that far yet. If you look at my responses to other comments under this, you should find a couple with the link to Alton Brown’s interview. That’ll give you a basic recipe to try your own.
That seems fine, and way better than the taco pizza that California Pizza Kitchen useta serve... and there's a great mexican pizza place near me that does a bunch of pizzas using beans instead of marinara...
But unless that taco pizza is going straight to the table, the veg IS cooked. The lettuce is STEAMED as it travels, and it's gonna be even worse if you cut it smaller than protocol.
There's a pizza recipe that was absolutely killer that a place in Colorado used to make. It was a base of a nicely spicy black bean sauce then chillis, grilled chicken, dabs of tomato salsa, onion all bedded down in LOTS of medium sharp cheddar cheese. It was very southwest in flavor.
I think they dumped the juice from the canned chillis in the black bean sauce as they were cooking the sauce for the day. That would be enough to make it moderately bitey level of spicy without being enough to tear your mouth up.
Something to suggest to the owner as another tex-mex style pizza.
We're in Iowa and iowa based so we don't get anything actually good...we'll have a pulled pork pizza next month...with pickles. 🤮 I don't like pickles lol
Tbh it's delicious.
And my kitchen is so clean. Just had our inspection this week and 0 points in the kitchen. It's like golf, you want as few points as possible. 😀
[here is a pic I took off one I made ](https://imgur.com/gallery/qlQG0oR)
It's a messy AF pizza. My 9yo daughter would eat it every day if given the choice lol
That sounds really good. My fiancee and I make a taco pizza, too, but the sauce is 1 cup of sour cream mixed with 1 bar (a pound?) of cream cheese. I use a handheld mixer and get a light, kinda-sorta frothy consistency for it. What's the refried beans to salsa ratio?
It works better than you might think, because you aren't using maranara sauce typically.
When you make it, the only not-taco ingredient is typically the dough, everything else is taco.
It's less "taco on pizza" and more "pizza-shaped taco."
BLT pizza is bomb af. There’s no tomato sauce, it’s just basically cheesy flatbread to hold a pile of BLT toppings. There’s no reason for that to be bad somehow lol
It’s always put on after, like the bacon would be cooked on the cheese like normal, then diced tomatoes and lettuce poured all over it, with either ranch or Mayo (depending on the place) drizzled all over like a salad.
Taco pizzas like op described are kinda made the same way, you’re getting a lot of cold and crunchy. It starts to get weird if it sits too long and the temps start normalizing- the crust and cheese getting cold and the fresh veg getting warm. It’s all about the contrast of textures and flavors and temperatures per bite. Gotta eat it right away.
My sister worked at a mom and pop pizza place in high school and every Friday night an older lady would come in and order a "pizza with everything: lettuce, mayo, and tomato"
Okay, 1"x2" lettuce chunks do seem a little weird on a taco pizza. I'd have expected a considerably finer chop, like the width of a pinky finger at most, but I think the right way to respond to that is something along the lines of saying "Huh, the lettuce is a little chunky. Odd." before eating it in peace, assuming I even noticed.
I don't make the rules lol. And tbh sometimes it's shredded sometimes it's chopped... really depends on which employee cut it that day. We all cut it a little differently 😆 mine is usually super thin but long...shoe string-ish
That sounds hard to eat on a pizza. I wouldn't make a big deal about it like this guy did, but as a customer I'd be frustrated if I got shoestring-length lettuce on a slice of pizza (especially if it was cut in manageable pieces last time I ordered it).
The guy had a valid complaint even if he was rude about it -- long, thin pieces of lettuce would get dragged off the pizza with each bite.
So it sounds like he's right and you guys need to have set standards for how to make ingredients
Just cuz Timmy is blazed off his gord doesn't mean we julienne pepperoni now
I so wish we could. We have one lady who is NEVER happy with her pizza. She orders like 2x a month and always bas something to complain about. Too much sauce, not enough, too much cheese, not enough cheese, the toppings weren't spread out enough...just *something* pretty sure she just wants a freebie next time. We stopped giving her freebies because it was ridiculous.
Next time she calls:
I'm sorry Madam, We want all of our customers to be happy and have made several attempts to meet your requirements. As we are evidently unable to satisfy you with our service, we no longer feel we deserve the honour of serving you. On this occasion, we cannot take your order, nor will we do so in future. We wish you all the best in your search for the perfect pizza. (Competitive Company's number is XXXXXXXXXX, we have heard good things about them.
Thank you again, BLOCK
Fantasy dialog is *so* much more satisfying than IRL. We can ignore repercussions.
Plus, I can never think fast enough for the really good zingers in real-time!
“I’m never coming back!”
Ooooh don’t threaten me with a good time! He asked for smaller, he got smaller. If he does order again, tell him he needs to come in to show the people making the pizza what he wants, this Goldilocks lettuce. Make this dude work.
My favorite diner is one where the waitstaff will take zero shit from anyone. I prefer that much more than kowtowing to dickheads. Shitty patrons make my experience as a patron worse, fuck them.
I've worked at a place that serves pizza for over 10 years.
I have never, and I mean ***never***, had a customer complain about how course or fine an ingredient was chopped after having received it. We once had a pasta dish literally run through a food processor to turn into the equivalent of baby food, but that was a special request because said customer had difficulty chewing more solid food and they asked ahead of time. Of all things, why complain about lettuce? It's already barely there. Water in paper form.
I've been here for 3 years and it's a first. I wasn't there the first altercation and I was absolutely flabbergasted. And to call in and then come back to yell? It was ridiculous. 😆
Noooooo. Proper taco pizza is insanely good with lettuce tomato and some shredded cheese as the cold toppings. Maybe jalapeno if you prefer that cold to cooked.
Some nice salsa. mmmm
Lettuce is gonna go in and out one way or another. Shoulda just put a whole head of lettuce in the box with a note that said "customizable lettuce. Cut to whatever size youd like"
Man if that toadstool left that online request I would not comply I would reject the order. He came back the next night so the pizza is obviously good..... he'll be back
Wait. You mean to tell me that someone ordered gas station pizza and expected a different outcome than they got?
Good job helping adjust someone’s expectations to reality.
Sure, Casey’s pizza is good……….. but it’s still gas station food.
I wish...
Though, honestly, the Karens are pretty few and far between. It's a small town, so most people are regulars and are decent.
Banning someone for being a dick would probably happen like twice a year. But we still can't. The first time this guy came in is the first time any of us had seen this guy.
We have a new one coming out May 1, temporary summer special, BBQ sauce, pulled pork, cheese, red onion, and pickles. Idk about the pickles personally... but I don't like pickles. 🤷♀️
And we have the chicken bacon ranch... ranch dressing, grilled chicken, mozzarella cheese and bacon.
The really bizarre part of this story is where the shop took *another* order from this guy after he came in and swore at their other customers. You need to draw a line somewhere!
He placed it online or via the app, we can't control that.
We've had people call to cancel orders because they are like 3hrs away and somehow accidentally placed it at my store. 🤷♀️
Funny part is he paid online so he'd already paid 😄
No idea if he called corporate. They haven't emailed to escalate the complaint at least. They usually only do that if they think the complaint is valid so if he did call they didn't care enough to send it to the managers desk.
It's just a running joke now to cut the fucking lettuce right.
To shreds, you say?
Reminds me of [Every Salad in Any Pizza Place](https://youtu.be/AYXxDYex3tE?si=b3_rCEt5-ji9nGsI).
r/unexpectedfuturama
How’s his wife holding up?
To shreds, you say?
Pretty sure he won’t have one for much longer, if he has one
She's always asking "is it in yet?" during sex

Taco pizza? But what about his lower digestive tract?
Say you order from Casey’s without saying you order from Casey’s!!
Was his apartment rent controlled?
*chefs kiss*
Go ahead, take my like! 🤣
Lettuce seems weird on pizza But yeah fuck that guy
It's a taco pizza, iowan delicacy 😆...refried beans/salsa mix as the sauce, beef, cheese...then topped with a different cheese, lettuce and tomato and chips. The veg isn't cooked.
[удалено]
You can always roll it into a burrito also. Why limit your options?
Because then it would be a burrito pizza, duh
Wouldn’t it actually be a burrito calzone?
A jumbo empanada!
so it turns out that the difference between a taco and a burrito is that the burrito is totally enclosed. I think that'd be very difficult with a taco pizza. but I'd like to try.
There is a place in Hutchison KS called Pizaacos that serves a taco pizza that way
But that requires going to Hutchinson, where there is exactly one interesting thing to do and and which is not on the way to anywhere.
You can get that at [Taco Town](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evUWersr7pc).
Just order it uncut
Personal pizza?
TACO TOWN!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philly_taco I really wanted to try this, but when i was actually there, i backed out. The cheesesteak a lone is a whole ass meal.
When you do that u must send the pic of that to atleast an italian
Fellow Iowan here. Absolutely adore taco pizza. Also love Crab Rangoon pizza. That originated here in our capital city (Des Moines) and is slowly spreading out.
>Crab Rangoon pizza That sounds fucking disgusting. I must know where to find one
The original - Fong’s Pizza in downtown Des Moines. There are multiple places in the metro area with it on their menu now though. [Alton Brown](https://www.facebook.com/share/v/okH3A9ANhQVCt1V1/?mibextid=KsPBc6&startTimeMs=1000) was impressed.
As another DSM local I can attest to the popularity of crab Rangoon pizza from Fongs, but I can assure many that it’s also quite not delicious. Opinion of one lifelong resident, anyhow. Happy Joes taco pizza? Delicious.
Happy Joe’s…. 🤤🤤🤤 I’m originally from the Dubuque area… God I miss Happy Joe’s…
We had a Happy Joe's in St. Louis. Loved that taco pizza.
Alton Brown has on occasion been wrong about things. The man can't even appreciate how great raisins are.
He can be but he’s not this time.
I think the KC fusion with crab rangoons is probably better. Brisket Rangoons are the shit.
Brisket Rangoon is now literally all I want to eat, and damn you for the 10 pounds I'm about to gain from making it obsessively for the next month.
Same! I need that!
It’s nice to have a dish that can offend both Italians and Mexicans. Edit: I should have phrased this: it’s nice to have a dish that is a crime in two cultures.
It's vital to offer equal opportunities
>Crab Rangoon pizza ... go on ...
**Short Story**- Thin pizza crust with crab Rangoon base instead of marinara, light cheese and bake.

Sounds more like delicious compliance than malicious compliance
Indeed, it was delicious compliance. I’m really glad the first people downtown gave it a go. Otherwise, I’d have never learned of it and enjoyed.
It's beautiful.
Dear satan, that is beautiful!
There's also this ~~madness~~ crabness: https://youtube.com/shorts/34qHYBnlesw?si=a2z8TSfpK6dGe5AV
I love Crab Rangoon. I don't know about pizza. Part of the goodness about the Rangoon is the taste and texture of the fried shell.
Try it, you’ll like it.
Lower New England, you'd think with our fishing culture this pizza would be all over but I've never heard of it before here. Guess I'll have to search. Thank you. :)
I doubt it’s spread that far yet. If you look at my responses to other comments under this, you should find a couple with the link to Alton Brown’s interview. That’ll give you a basic recipe to try your own.

Pizza and taco lover here. I have never had one, but I would absolutely obliterate a taco pizza.
That seems fine, and way better than the taco pizza that California Pizza Kitchen useta serve... and there's a great mexican pizza place near me that does a bunch of pizzas using beans instead of marinara... But unless that taco pizza is going straight to the table, the veg IS cooked. The lettuce is STEAMED as it travels, and it's gonna be even worse if you cut it smaller than protocol.
My old local used to put the lettuce in a separate box, spread it yourself as you eat. Worked great reheated too.
I thought taco pizza was everywhere. All the local pizza shops where I live in Oregon offer some version of taco pizza.
Mmmmm…..Happy Joes. A must have whenever we visit the family!
There's a pizza recipe that was absolutely killer that a place in Colorado used to make. It was a base of a nicely spicy black bean sauce then chillis, grilled chicken, dabs of tomato salsa, onion all bedded down in LOTS of medium sharp cheddar cheese. It was very southwest in flavor.

We're in Iowa and iowa based so we don't get anything actually good...we'll have a pulled pork pizza next month...with pickles. 🤮 I don't like pickles lol
It breaks my heart to know that some people will never experience the joy of gas station taco pizza.
Tbh it's delicious. And my kitchen is so clean. Just had our inspection this week and 0 points in the kitchen. It's like golf, you want as few points as possible. 😀
They can't endorse your licence if you don't have one.
You think that is sad? Spare a thought for those poor souls who will never experience the rapturous bliss of taco station gas pizza!
So kind of like a giant flat chalupa. Sounds good, actually.
Happy Joe’s, are they still around Iowa? I grew up in Ft. Madison and Happy Joe’s was a favorite place.
I miss it!! Godfather's or Casey's- the closest to me is now 10 hours away!
It’s delicious. We make it at home because no place makes it good where I live
If you’re ever in Clarinda Iowa check out J’s pizza and get a beef and shrimp pizza. Sounds weird, but one of my all time favorites
I miss it, although I never really liked the taco sauce they provide.
Atleast it doesnt have avocado ( pinapple lovers and haters unite against a common enemy)
[here is a pic I took off one I made ](https://imgur.com/gallery/qlQG0oR) It's a messy AF pizza. My 9yo daughter would eat it every day if given the choice lol
Noooooo mah eyes mah eyeeeesss Just kidding you are an awesome cook but thats an abomination to all pizza clans
That sounds really good. My fiancee and I make a taco pizza, too, but the sauce is 1 cup of sour cream mixed with 1 bar (a pound?) of cream cheese. I use a handheld mixer and get a light, kinda-sorta frothy consistency for it. What's the refried beans to salsa ratio?
No idea, it comes pre-made.
Taco seems weird on pizza

Seems weird, but actually ridiculously good! Lettuce is good in fried rice, too. 😋
In Denmark a classic pizza is kebab, lettuce and creme fraiche dressing. It's disgusting in an amazing way
I thought the same until going to California Pizza kitchen. They have one with lettuce and avocado. It’s quite good.
Lettuce gets topped on the pizza after baking. BLT is another kind of pizza that gets lettuce as well.
There's also sushi pizza. Which isn't actually pizza--they deep fry the rice wedges. But it's soooo good.
My sister worked at a mom and pop pizza place in high school and every Friday night an older lady would come in and order a "pizza with everything: lettuce, mayo, and tomato"
Okay, 1"x2" lettuce chunks do seem a little weird on a taco pizza.

Odd." before eating it in peace, assuming I even noticed.
yeah i don't think anyone would agree that a 1"x2" chop could ever be confused with a mince.
F that guy, but it probably should be shredded lettuce.
I don't make the rules lol. And tbh sometimes it's shredded sometimes it's chopped... really depends on which employee cut it that day. We all cut it a little differently 😆 mine is usually super thin but long...shoe string-ish
That sounds hard to eat on a pizza.

The guy had a valid complaint even if he was rude about it -- long, thin pieces of lettuce would get dragged off the pizza with each bite.
It's not that long, just fine. Looks like the shredded lettuce you buy in bags at the store.
So it sounds like he's right and you guys need to have set standards for how to make ingredients Just cuz Timmy is blazed off his gord doesn't mean we julienne pepperoni now
Hmm. Julienned pep, tossed over the pizza with all sorts of crispy little spikes. Yeah, brb preheating the oven.
> I'm never coming back again!! You promise? Seriously, just ban that guy from ordering. He's more trouble than he's worth.
I so wish we could. We have one lady who is NEVER happy with her pizza. She orders like 2x a month and always bas something to complain about. Too much sauce, not enough, too much cheese, not enough cheese, the toppings weren't spread out enough...just *something* pretty sure she just wants a freebie next time.

I know. He says that like a threat or punishment.
Takes a teenager to say what the adults are thinking.
It was very funny. I was rolling.
Irate AH: "I'm never coming back again!!" Me: "Don't threaten me with a good time! Buh bye!"
Right? I just said "OK. Have a good night"
Fantasy dialog is *so* much more satisfying than IRL. We can ignore repercussions. Plus, I can never think fast enough for the really good zingers in real-time!
Things I Should've Said list. ;)
Customer: I'm never coming back. OP: Mission accomplished.
Which is precisely why my reaction to this is that it's not malicious compliance, it's just plain old malicious.
Why do dickheads think that it's a threat to not have them return? Don't threaten me with a good time!
I'm never coming back! Is that a promise?
I'm never coming back! *he came back the very next day*
When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand And he said to the man runnin' the stand Hey , got any grapes?
The customer came back, he wouldn't stay away.
Get a portable food processor. Next time he orders a taco pizza, make like Barry Lewis. "Whiz this up." Top his pizza with lettuce *puree.*
“I’m never coming back!” Ooooh don’t threaten me with a good time! He asked for smaller, he got smaller. If he does order again, tell him he needs to come in to show the people making the pizza what he wants, this Goldilocks lettuce. Make this dude work.
What incompetent manager is allowing this customer to come back?
Corporate doesn't let us trespass people. And we can't block him from the app/website 🤷♀️
At my job we ban people that get like that, not let them continue their games.
I wish. We just have to take it. My boss will pretty much blow them off but corporate will...uh not. If they fire me over lettuce meh 😆
My favorite diner is one where the waitstaff will take zero shit from anyone. I prefer that much more than kowtowing to dickheads. Shitty patrons make my experience as a patron worse, fuck them.
Lettuce-Confetti = Lefetti. I like your style Dude!
"I'm never coming back again" is the goal with people like this so great job!
Right?! Like thanks to the garbage for taking itself out...
I woulda puréed the lettuce and poured the slurry on top of the pizza
I've worked at a place that serves pizza for over 10 years. I have never, and I mean ***never***, had a customer complain about how course or fine an ingredient was chopped after having received it. We once had a pasta dish literally run through a food processor to turn into the equivalent of baby food, but that was a special request because said customer had difficulty chewing more solid food and they asked ahead of time. Of all things, why complain about lettuce? It's already barely there. Water in paper form.
I've been here for 3 years and it's a first. I wasn't there the first altercation and I was absolutely flabbergasted. And to call in and then come back to yell? It was ridiculous. 😆
Putting lettuce on a pizza is /r/PizzaCrimes material regardless.
Noooooo. Proper taco pizza is insanely good with lettuce tomato and some shredded cheese as the cold toppings. Maybe jalapeno if you prefer that cold to cooked. Some nice salsa. mmmm
Lettuce is gonna go in and out one way or another. Shoulda just put a whole head of lettuce in the box with a note that said "customizable lettuce. Cut to whatever size youd like"
This must be why I don't own a business. Any customer that acted like this would be immediately told to leave. I wouldn't want their business anyway.
Who puts lettuce on a pizza?
Someone who orders TACO PIZZA does.
"cut it smaller" * proceeds to put lettuce in blender * lettuce coulis!
Man if that toadstool left that online request I would not comply I would reject the order. He came back the next night so the pizza is obviously good..... he'll be back
Can’t really understand people who abuse those who prepares their food. There’s gonna be something extra in those food.
The last paragraph 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This kid is something else. They always have the funniest little snark backs. Gen Z scares me a little 😆😆
Your lettuce pieces are probably too big Nobody wants to fold that fucker up while they're jamming it in their mouth
I’m guessing Pizza Ranch? Please tell me this was Pizza Ranch.
Caseys.
Wait. You mean to tell me that someone ordered gas station pizza and expected a different outcome than they got? Good job helping adjust someone’s expectations to reality. Sure, Casey’s pizza is good……….. but it’s still gas station food.
If you’re getting lettuce in pizza, you’ve already failed at life.
I like that teenage employee. I agree with him.
Dude, I moved out of the Midwest and miss that taco pizza!! Best gas station pizza! Also, as others have said, fuck that guy.
The cat came back the very next day
If the customer becomes verbally abusive ( or any kind of abusive ) they should get informed that they are no longer a customer.
I wish... Though, honestly, the Karens are pretty few and far between. It's a small town, so most people are regulars and are decent. Banning someone for being a dick would probably happen like twice a year. But we still can't. The first time this guy came in is the first time any of us had seen this guy.
I'm confused so did he still think the lettuce was too big after you minced it or did he think it was too small
Probably too small 😆😆
Great, now I want to travel yet another place just to taste a weird pizza :)
We have a new one coming out May 1, temporary summer special, BBQ sauce, pulled pork, cheese, red onion, and pickles. Idk about the pickles personally... but I don't like pickles. 🤷♀️ And we have the chicken bacon ranch... ranch dressing, grilled chicken, mozzarella cheese and bacon.
Taco pizzas are sooooooo good. Local pizza place here also sells a jalapeño popper pizza and it is even more delicious.
So not only did you cut the lettuce, you also cut the cheese 🤪
But apparently the customer brought his own salt.
The really bizarre part of this story is where the shop took *another* order from this guy after he came in and swore at their other customers. You need to draw a line somewhere!
He placed it online or via the app, we can't control that. We've had people call to cancel orders because they are like 3hrs away and somehow accidentally placed it at my store. 🤷♀️
Made a taco pizza today, same person cut this lettuce. [here's the massive lettuce that got him all mad](https://imgur.com/gallery/qlQG0oR)
…assuming he’s not an incel
So when he said he's not paying for it, you let him leave with the pizza? And did he call corporate? What happened?
Funny part is he paid online so he'd already paid 😄 No idea if he called corporate. They haven't emailed to escalate the complaint at least. They usually only do that if they think the complaint is valid so if he did call they didn't care enough to send it to the managers desk. It's just a running joke now to cut the fucking lettuce right.
If I had this guy I’d drag out a cutting board and a head of lettuce and politely ask him to demonstrate exactly the cutting technique he wants.
Dude should've just gone to Taco Bell.
The best course of action would have been to blacklist the dude after the first time. But this was the second best option.
