I had originally added Big Lou’s this in the post about our downtown visit, but after looking at how long the post was already, I decided it deserved it’s own “moment of glory” on my site.
Bring on the Pizza!
We planned a trip to Big Lou’s in San Antonio as one of our full group meals. Let’s face it–group meals with 23 people are a bit chaotic and LOUD, so we didn’t have too many. But this one was by far the highlight of the meals on our Texas Trip. Big Lou’s is a pizza joint and Ryan & Stephanie first discovered it when they were watching “Man vs. Food” on t.v. one night. If you’re not familiar with the show, it’s awesome. He travels all around the country to noteworthy/interesting restaurants trying to beat records. It’s so interesting to watch. Anyway, in this one there was a VERY big pizza. I mean V.E.R.Y. big.
42 inches big.
Description of what was to come!
The plates were HUGE--this should have been an indication of what was to come!
Here it comes! We had to clear the table and scoot our plates to the very edge!
Wow--now THAT'S a pizza!!!! And it was very tasty!
We ordered two 42 inch pizza's for the group and we finished all but a couple slices!!!
See, the plates and slices of pizza were almost as big as Josiah!
We were talking to one of the guys that worked there (he must have been someone important but I didn’t catch his title) and he showed us a picture of the biggest pizza he had ever made. It was–are you ready for this?–62 inches big. Wowsa! He showed us a picture of it on his phone and Michelle (Tim’s Cousin) took a picture of his picture…
He said he helped make it and put on 500 pepperoni's! It's like a sea of pizza...
Then he even agreed to bring out the pan to show Michelle, so she asked if she could have a picture with it. Can you believe how big it is? That’s a lot of pizza!
Michelle posing with the 62 inch pan. We're not sure how they get it in the room becuase he was rolling it around...
Overall it was a fantastic experience. I think Tim even said it was his favorite memory from the whole trip!
That is just amazing. What I would like to see is the oven they cook them it!
