Top 10 Pizza Picks

Well I might as well start off with the  proven number one, these guys have consistently for  the past 25 years or so won titles such as the best pizza in NY- AOL contest,  Best Pizza in the East US, Best Pizza in America and the coveted World's Best Pizza several times. What does it take to have your pizza bet(by the Mayors of NY) on the NY Yankees, NY Mets and even the Superbowl winning NY Giants? It takes a fantastic pizza,  a lot of credibility and a BIG fan base. What makes Goodfella's Brick Oven Pizza even more impressive is the fact that they are located in the "forgotten borough" of Staten New York on Hylan Boulevard. Customers line up around the block for slice and come from from all over New York City, the tri-state area and around the world to try the trend setting Vodka Pie they invented back in 1992, which later won Best Pizza In America. For years they had one of the biggest hand built brick ovens in NY and now setting trends again with the Revolving Brick Oven they installed. Not only that but these guys have made tremendous contributions to the community from thousands of meals 24 hours a day at ground zero on 911 (which almost put them out of business)


to local charities, schools, events, churches,  Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy, homeless shelters, hurricane relief,  and much, much more. They are Staten Island Proud and love the art of making pizza. That being said, I'll end off with the top pizza pick and leave 2nd place for another blog.

Rotating Brick Ovens For True Italian American Pizza

brick ovensHaving cooked pizza for decades in a traditional brick oven it took a little getting used to the idea of a revolving deck brick oven but all I can say is "where have you been all my life". Imagine getting a perfect pizza every time with about 1/10 the work. Not only that but every pie is perfect and you don't have to "work" the oven. Hard to believe? Well come on down to the original Goodfella's Brick Oven Pizza on Hylan Blvd. in Staten Island and see for yourself. You just put the pizza in the wood and gas fired oven, the rotating deck spins at the perfect pace and then you use a short pizza peel to take it out right where you put it in a couple minutes ago. No turning the pizza every minute, no looking out for hot spots on the oven cooking surface, no more cold spots-wow!

Happy 4th of July! From Goodfella's Pizza Staten Island New York.

Thank you to our forefathers. Independence was a courageous idea at the time considering the overwhelming power and suppressive nature of the British Empire. A recent visit to Boston gave me perspective on it. I realized the incredible entrepreneurial spirit of men like Paul Revere, who had a printing press and was a silversmith, engraver, dentist, goldsmith and courier. He had a lot to loose when he went out to participate in the Boston Tea Party. All these brave men knew it was all or nothing and freedom to pursue their own destiny drove them to victory against impossible odds. My kind of guys. Without them I never would have had the chance to become a pizza man in this great country and pursue my own dreams. God Bless America and thank you to all who in front and behind the lines that continue to fight to keep it free. www.brickovensforsale.com www.goodfellas.com
