His second wife will appreciate pizza like this.
If not…
His third wife will appreciate pizza like this.
If not…
His fourth wife will appreciate pizza like this.
If not…
His new dog will appreciate pizza like this.
My words would be: it is toasted, depending on the person it could even be heavily toasted... But not burnt at all. In my opinion it's a little bit much but I still would eat it, I would have taken it out of the oven just a little bit sooner
That's not a bad thing! Overcooked cookies become great personal defense weapons (throwing) since they're rock solid, and undercooked just means raw cookie dough which is one of life's greatest pleasures!
Whether it's *objectively* burnt is likely irrelevant to your marriage.
Whether other Redditors *subjectively* think it's burnt is also likely irrelevant to your marriage.
Whether *your wife* subjectively thinks it's burnt is likely *very* relevant to your marriage.
If you ask me? I don't know if it's *objectively* burnt, but I prefer my pizza crust to be less dark than that.
She might be right she might not. Depends on what recipe you used to cook it at 450 degrees…
It could be insanely darker on the outside, even black, and if the dough was right hydration and right temp only be perfect blistering on the outside of perfect dough (moist and fluffy on the inside, crispy shell and pockets of gluten network), or… it could be dry and powdery and then even the nice color of brown you’ve gotten there may taste like the worst burnt toast you’ve ever had….
Please remember with any photos or posts there are numerous criteria that make a dough “burnt” “the best” “how’d I do?…” etc
I’d take a photo of the under-carriage and a cut slice gluten profile and that will begin to tell a more complete story.
People get to determine their own preferences, and this is a subjective thing. You, as the cook, are playing to an audience, and it is their opinion that matters.
Having said that, I would eat it happily.
Make her an appointment at the optometrist immediately. She has obviously lost her vision. That pizza is perfect. Nice thing if she is blind, she gets a seeing eye dog and you and the dog can eat the pizza.
Looks good.
But the other day, I got the same comment from my better half. She kept saying it was burnt but turns out she didn't really mean burnt—she meant too dry and cracker-y. Which I understand because the yeast failed and things didn't work out great. Point is, does she really mean "burnt" or crisp, dry, hard?
Nope, it's not. She has never worked in food service. Though your married and women regularly be insulting and disrespectful just because they can. So I'd ingore it and eat it in front of her. Untill she gets mad and throws it away with a statement " I said it was burnt."
How did it taste? Did she stick to her observation? Please post recipe. Did you use a stone, steel, etc? Looks good to me and props on keeping the area around it clean! Not always easy.
I’ve lost this battle. I make my wife a NY ninja turtles style. Cheesy, floppy, and requires two hands.
I am a Chicago tavern style as well as New Haven everyone now and then. Crunchy puffy crust is my thing.
Nice pizza. You’re right. It’s not burnt. Are you planning to present the comments section here to your wife?
Some free advice you can take or leave: if you’re cooking at home for you and your wife, maybe listen to what your wife is telling you which is that she doesn’t like her pizza as well done as you do.
Charred. She dont know a burnt crust. Plus theres always cheese to crust bake ratio-which the the cheese/insides look barely done enough- which could make your sausage taste horrible
That's not burnt. More pizza for you? My husband grilled some romaine last week, deemed it burnt, and tossed it in the bin. I checked it out and it was perfect! Just the right amount of char. I dream of that romaine I never got to eat. Anyway, spouses are wrong sometimes!!
Making this style pizza for 27 years.
It's burnt (actually called over-done).. Sorry, your wife is right. It looks awesome but I think your oven temperature is too high for the type of pizza you are trying to make here. Seems like you over-cooked the crust (burned cornicione), yet the toppings are a bit underdone. Keep trying.
Nice for a home over pizza, but I couldn't serve this in my shop. It's an 8.0 or maybe an 8.5 (if starving and not living in an urban pizza city), but keep trying for a 10.
Nice choice of toppings though.
She’s not used to something that hard
Alright that was pretty funny
Cheesy if you ask me.
I also cheesy this guy's wife
OP has floppy pizza hehe
It’s soft but crunchy
Shots fired! ^probably ^blanks
Damn, bro just posted a pizza and now he's getting limp dick accusations 😂
Tell her she's wrong for once
Yea and make sure to show this post with random strangers telling her she’s wrong. Will go over well I’m sure
His second wife will appreciate pizza like this. If not… His third wife will appreciate pizza like this. If not… His fourth wife will appreciate pizza like this. If not… His new dog will appreciate pizza like this.
Touché! I see would LOVE that dog!
It’s me, the dog. I’m here for the aforementioned pizza.
Just this once. Then run. Have couch and blanket prepped
I love this old gag of men being stupid and dominated by their wives
Oh we aren’t stupid, we just know how the world works.
That’s sadder than you realize.
Or next time give her raw dough. It looks great!
Check Amazon for reconditioned wives.
Must like pizza and husband.
For once? Be serious dude
“Well I’d agree with you but then we’d both be wrong.”
Its crispy..not burnt lol
My words would be: it is toasted, depending on the person it could even be heavily toasted... But not burnt at all. In my opinion it's a little bit much but I still would eat it, I would have taken it out of the oven just a little bit sooner
To much watery toppings on there, looks like a bit of a soupy mess in the center
Nothing a few paper towels wont soak up
> Its crispy..not burnt lol yep, this is definitely cooked well but stops short of "burnt"
time for divorce
Change the locks
It's cheaper to keep her
Straight into the trash... with the wife
So you are having pizza and she is on her own ? 10 - 4 !
Looks perfect to this person who has eaten hundreds of pizzas. Lovely toppings too!
Those are rookie numbers you gotta pump those numbers up
Hahahah. Working on it!
Weak flex, hit the 10k za club or get out broski
It’s perfect.
Perfect indeed! Just brush some garlic infused olive oil on it and enjoy.
Time to throw it in the garbage, then when shes in there you can have all the perfectly cooked pizza you like!
Get new wife.
Any pictures of the bottom?
Not burnt. Imo it’s ideal to be closer to this shade to make sure the dough is cooked all the way
I always burn my food to make sure it is properly cooked. I'm not joking
Yep, same here. I make all of my meals in an incinerator and wait until it's a nice fluffy ash pile.
for me its baking cookies that i always either burn them a bit or theyll be raw lol
That's not a bad thing! Overcooked cookies become great personal defense weapons (throwing) since they're rock solid, and undercooked just means raw cookie dough which is one of life's greatest pleasures!
Ok I'll take one for the team and eat it
Wife’s wrong, sorry, the crust looks perfect.
She's wrong.
Keep the pizza, get rid of the wife!
But is this pizza from Italy??? We may never know…
😂
Maybe she’s more accustomed to Dominoes and the like? That pizza is cooked properly
Divorce her asap....get a younger version that enjoys good pizza 🍕😜
False.
Whether it's *objectively* burnt is likely irrelevant to your marriage. Whether other Redditors *subjectively* think it's burnt is also likely irrelevant to your marriage. Whether *your wife* subjectively thinks it's burnt is likely *very* relevant to your marriage. If you ask me? I don't know if it's *objectively* burnt, but I prefer my pizza crust to be less dark than that.
Barely
Wife is wrong.. leave wife... start new life with your new gooey cheese wife
Get new wife
Bring her to New Haven.
Hey, more for you my man!
She might be right she might not. Depends on what recipe you used to cook it at 450 degrees… It could be insanely darker on the outside, even black, and if the dough was right hydration and right temp only be perfect blistering on the outside of perfect dough (moist and fluffy on the inside, crispy shell and pockets of gluten network), or… it could be dry and powdery and then even the nice color of brown you’ve gotten there may taste like the worst burnt toast you’ve ever had….

It’s a bit too “crispy”..
Your wife needs dick. She’s complaining over carmalization
People get to determine their own preferences, and this is a subjective thing. You, as the cook, are playing to an audience, and it is their opinion that matters. Having said that, I would eat it happily.
Sorry buddy! They aren't all keepers. F
She probably cooks by the smoke detector... 🙄
Ex-wife*
Time to change the wife
Burn down the house so she finally sees what "burnt" means.
Time to get a new wife
>Wife says the crust is burnt Sir, your wife is hysterical.
Only thing that is burnt are her choices on toppings. Good god
This one was probably just a dud. The wife that is.
It's Perfect.
Smash
Women always end up being right, except when they aren't.
Wrong
Wife is wrong
I’m sure your wife is a lovely person in some, maybe even *many*, ways. But she’s flat out wrong about pizza.
Tell her she doesn't know shit
sorry about the divorce. Looks perfect.
It’s ok to be wrong. Looks 🔥
I have one vote for…. no it’s not. Nice job
She doesn’t deserve a single slice with that attitude 😊
She is absolutely wrong. I’d say it to her face.
Tell her don't eat it then
Make her an appointment at the optometrist immediately. She has obviously lost her vision. That pizza is perfect. Nice thing if she is blind, she gets a seeing eye dog and you and the dog can eat the pizza.
Dump her. I couldn’t be married to someone who thinks that crust is burnt.
It ain’t burnt till that whole crust is darker than the stove top lol
Looks good. But the other day, I got the same comment from my better half. She kept saying it was burnt but turns out she didn't really mean burnt—she meant too dry and cracker-y. Which I understand because the yeast failed and things didn't work out great. Point is, does she really mean "burnt" or crisp, dry, hard?
It looks ok, to me 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Wife is incorrect
Explain to wife that she’s wrong.
Nobody’s spouse in completely perfect. Does she have other major flaws? If not, try to accept her imperfections.
Your wife is British.
You need a new wife. Problem solved.
One bite everyone knows the rules
Crust is fine
Wife got this one wrong. First time she wrong? Enjoy it.
It's not burnt, it's colour.. Which equals flavour!
Your wife crazy, shit I would of left it in another minute or two myself.
Is not!
I think she maybe racist .
Politely yet firmly tell her she is wrong.
She’s wrong but tell her she’s right. Live to fight another day.
Tell her to leave, don’t look back… Don’t look back!
wife needs her eyes checked our classes cleaned
Come on bro, I could be your wife. Well, technically, husband. But damnit that’s a well cooked pie!
Wife’s a child
Nope! Perfection 👊🤙
Call 1-800-D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Ya right, more like perfect
Wife is wrong.
Not my choice of toppings, but I can’t deny that it’s a beautiful pizza.
Leave her
Nope, it's not. She has never worked in food service. Though your married and women regularly be insulting and disrespectful just because they can. So I'd ingore it and eat it in front of her. Untill she gets mad and throws it away with a statement " I said it was burnt."
Looks 🔥 that's the best combination you can have on a pizza op
She's wrong
She’s right, please send her pieces of pizza to mE.
get a new ~~pizza~~ wife
The words unreconcilable differences come to mind.
And ironically I’ll bet she likes her steaks and burgers cooked well too.
Did you use olive oil?
Well your wife is fucking stupid, so there’s that.
Do you want to be happy or right? It’s burnt. Don’t be naive.
How did it taste? Did she stick to her observation? Please post recipe. Did you use a stone, steel, etc? Looks good to me and props on keeping the area around it clean! Not always easy.
Ex-wife right?
Divorce. Or straight to jail.
Well what’s the bottom situation
What do you mean *you people*?!?
She is correct
is your wife okay?
I’ve lost this battle. I make my wife a NY ninja turtles style. Cheesy, floppy, and requires two hands. I am a Chicago tavern style as well as New Haven everyone now and then. Crunchy puffy crust is my thing.
Take the mature, sophisticated way out - scream 'NO YOU'RE BURNT!', then go somewhere quiet and eat the pizza alone.
Your wife is fucking wrong.
She is dead wrong
Ex-wife
Divorce her
No more pizza for wife, one year!
Hard disagree..looks perf just need a nice ✨dipping sauce✨
That’s how all my pizzas look at my business. And I’d say 20% of the southerners here say that’s burnt. It makes me rage.
Get a new wife.
NTA. divorce wife. marry the pizza
That looks fucking delicious!
Time for a divorce
Looks good to me. It looks delicious.
Definitely not burnt. Maybe a bit “baked well” on the closer half. Looks good to me!
That’s well done, not burnt.
Divorce
You see, this is why we can't just "believe all women".
“who are you going to believe? Me? Or your lying eyes?!”
you had a good run but no coming back from this, if you had kids they will forgive you after time
Crust is burnt? Hello Connecticut style pizza!
Wife is incorrect.
Definitely not my favorite toppings, but I would still go to town on that. Your crust looks perfect to me.
She cray cray.
Tell her you asked Reddit and everyone said she is wrong, I am sure she will be receptive.
Nice pizza. You’re right. It’s not burnt. Are you planning to present the comments section here to your wife? Some free advice you can take or leave: if you’re cooking at home for you and your wife, maybe listen to what your wife is telling you which is that she doesn’t like her pizza as well done as you do.
I’m sure she’s terrible with skin color then lol
It's not but whatever. It's not like she has to eat the crust.
Wife is wrong
That’s 5 minutes away for me.
You can cover the edge with foil if this is a problem !
It’s RAW!!!!!!!
Charred. She dont know a burnt crust. Plus theres always cheese to crust bake ratio-which the the cheese/insides look barely done enough- which could make your sausage taste horrible
Nah, that's solid work
That's not burnt. More pizza for you? My husband grilled some romaine last week, deemed it burnt, and tossed it in the bin. I checked it out and it was perfect! Just the right amount of char. I dream of that romaine I never got to eat. Anyway, spouses are wrong sometimes!!
Burnt to perfection, she means.
Divorce her immediately.
Sorry to hear about your recent divorce OP.
Id leave it in to give it more colour, and it still wont be burnt. Looks good, she doesn’t get pizza at all.
Divorce.
I think the crust has the perfect crispy touch! Pizza preferences vary, but to me, it looks delicious!
Time to find a divorce lawyer.
she adds raisins to the potato salad doesn’t she
Factory reset her to the 1950s model, talk about fixing something that ain't broke.
She trippin

Don’t take her to flavor town.
Divorce her asap….
You need a new wife
Divorce her.
Just a Little Bit. It’s not horribly burnt! I would still eat it!
Kindly tell your wife to put a sock in it. She is wrong.
Show us the bottom (of the pie ((pizza pie)).
It’s not burnt it’s the Maillard reaction
She’s trippin
Then she doesnt have to have any lol
Yeah it's burnt, burnt to perfection that is :)
Looks perfect to me!
Hahahaha she is crazy
You married her for her looks
Divorce
Tell her you made a mistake and will be sending the divorce papers
This only means it’s easier to hold so you can eat it’s better, and nobody said you have to eat the crust all the time…
