Frozen pizza, Heggies brand from a place in MN makes a very good one!. I like them on the grill with some oakwood smoking.
Most frozen pies ain't worthy for dogs.

I like pizza in general, that being said my favorite is the following:
Thin crust, slightly crispy.
Toppings and cheese that are balanced and go all the way to the edge, not a big fan of the inch of bare crust that rings the border of some pies.
Pepperoni and Italian sausage head the list of favorite toppings, but honestly I like most things that go on a pizza. Caramelized onions and fresh mushrooms are a nice touch. I am flexible on this one, it ultimately depends on my mood.
Plenty of sauce. I would rather overdue the sauce a bit than skimp and face a dry pizza. Heavy on garlic and oregano, and light on the sweetness. Save the sugar for dessert.
My ideal pizza is well done when it leaves the oven. The finished product should have a caramelized brown appearance. Cook the thing, don't rush it.

Chicago deep dish, in Chicago the space needed is expensive a bad food joint won't last long if your not selling a good product.

Thin crust, cooked just short of black, a dark brown. Light on the cheese, too many places put too much cheese on the pizza. If you cut a slice and lift it away it should not be held to the rest with strings of cheese. Sausage, pepperoni, onions and one of the best toppings, PINEAPPLE. All this needs to be well cooked so the meats are well done. Served with a great Beer, none of the generic crap you get from bud, miller etc, but a nice micro brew.

Not a what but a who,...Sammys …. pizza hands down! I'm onboard with that. Unfortunately they don't exist outside Minnesota. Shrimp and Mushroom is one of my favorite combinations. And if you really want to narrow down the region; The Shamrock in South Superior, WI does it even better. At least that was true when I last visited about ten years ago.

Had a friend in California send me a bunch of lobster . He had made me a pizza once using lobster and it was excellent. So I did something similar , but used dandelion greens in place of the spinach he used. Was a hit !

Best pizza I've ever had was from a gas station in the next town over... You call and order and they make it up for you.
My favorite is topped with smoked cheese and crumbled bacon.
Been a while since I had one. Hope they still make them.
