The worst thing about pizza is that layer of raw dough below the toppings (other than thin crust). What I would like somebody to try is after you're done whirling the dough up in the air at say Papa Johns, then before you put toppings on it run it through the oven first. Then put the toppings on and run it through again. I'm thinking that will be some pretty damned good pizza. Test it out report back in this thread. I need this done within one week. Thanks.

You obviously have not been to the PJ in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge. They are already ahead of the game on this brilliant idea. In Louisville now, but ordering a one topping medium from there today and watching golf.

If you eat pizza that is "run through" an oven instead of "cooked" in an oven you should expect crappie pizza but then again I'm a pizza snob and nothing would make Papa John's edible to me.

Crappie pizza? We call it "new light" pizza. It's good with tartar sauce. When we make pizza at home, we always partially cook the crust before adding the topings.

Godspeed on your quest.

Great idea, but after all that you need to turn it upside down and run it through one more time to let all the grease drip off.

If you're ever in Pittsburgh, check out Beto's pizza. They cook the crust, then add the toppings afterwards without cooking it again. It's amazing!

In Italy, they baste it with some type of oil before they put the toppings on that makes it delicious.

Well, when it comes to food you Americans know no bounds to how stupid you can be, so you're welcome for the obviously needed clarification.
