Take n’ Bake

  1. Set oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.

  2. Remove fresh pizza from all packaging. Slide pizza off the cardboard disc, directly onto middle rack of the preheated oven (do not cook pizza with cardboard disc).

  3. Bake pizza approximately 14-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese bubbles. Oven temperatures and cooking times may vary; adjust cooking time as needed for oven and toppings.

  4. Transfer the cooked pizza onto cardboard disc, cookie sheet or cutting board. Let rest 2-3 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!

The 14- to 20-minute cook time stated above is recommended for a cheese pizza. Please add 2 minutes to the cook time for each additional topping on your pizza. Rotate your pizza halfway through baking so pizza cooks evenly. Do not cook in microwave. Cooking in a convection oven is not recommended. If baking two pizzas simultaneously, alternate racks halfway through. Pizzas must be cooked or frozen within 24-48 hours of pickup.

Pizza may take slightly less time to cook if parchment paper is used. All ovens cook differently, so be sure to keep an eye on your pizza as it cooks. Pizza is done when the cheese is melted and edges are golden brown. Oven time and temp may vary; adjust as necessary.

Famous Thin Crust Chicago Pizza Since 1947

Above all, Home Run Inn is a proud, family-owned business–one with deep roots in the city of Chicago. In 1923, Mary and Vincent Grittani opened a small tavern on Chicago’s South Side. In 1947, Mary and her son-law, Nick Perrino, crafted the iconic Chicago pizza recipe known today and began serving pies to the bar’s customers. One fateful day, a baseball from the neighborhood park smashed through one of the tavern’s windows, no doubt a home run for some young slugger. And so was born Home Run Inn, where cold drinks and fresh, thin crust pizza have brought people together ever since.
