My husband and I were excited to make this. It reminds us of Papa Dels in Champagne, IL where we lived when we first were married. We couldn't afford Dels very often back then. We baked the pizza in two 9 inch cake pans on a stone, bottom of the oven, used 1 lb of italian sausage. We baked the pies for the time recommended and when we took them out they looked lovely, they sat for 15 minutes and then we sliced into them....the sausage was still pink. Back into the oven for another 15 minutes. Next time I'm going to brown the sausage and crumble it on the bottom. I think I would prefer the texture better and I would also prefer the browned sausage taste. This pizza tasted alot like the Papa Dels pizza I remember!!!!
