[H2] How It All
Started
In 1946, Detroit-Style Pizza was born at Buddy’s Rendezvous Pizzeria on Six Mile and Conant street on Detroit’s eastside. What makes a pizza Detroit-Style? The same things that made Detroit – a little bit of ingenuity, some stubborn spirit and a whole lot of heart. It’s what sparked an original idea 80 years ago to take a steel auto pan, create a one of a kind square pie and make Buddy’s the originators of Detroit-Style Pizza.Learn More About Us
[IMG: What Is Detroit-Style Pizza?]
[H2] What is
Detroit-Style
Pizza?
It starts with our dough, made in-house daily and double-stretched to create the light and airy crust that’s made us famous. Next is our forged-steel square pans, aged and seasoned to give our pies a one of a kind flavor and character and a crispy, extra thick crust with crunch in every bite. Finally, it’s our special Wisconsin brick cheese and fresh, real ingredients. And no shortcuts along the way. Same as we’ve always done it since we started. Hand-built from the bottom up; dough, cheese and sauce on top.Check Out Our Menu

[H2] Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cook a Buddy's frozen pizza?Preheat your oven to 425°F, remove packaging, and place the pizza directly on the center rack or a baking sheet. Bake for 18–25 minutes until the crust is crispy and cheese is bubbling. Click here for full instructions.Can I microwave Buddy’s Pizza?Microwaving Buddy's Pizza is not recommended.
