Who doesn’t love pizza? No one, that’s who! So, Hulu created a competition series where three different contestants compete in each episode to make different pizzas to determine who is Best In Dough.
The show, hosted by Wells Adams, starts off by introducing us to the contestants, and we find out how they are similar. In the premiere episode, they have three nonnas showing off their culinary skills from the old country. And no one is going to doubt it because no one messes with an Italian grandmother. Although the judges try, and they are left fearing for their lives.
Then it is time for them to make their first pizzas or calzones, as we see in episode 2. After the judges, Adams, head judge Chef Daniele Uditi of Pizzana, and features Chef Millie Peartree, comedian and food influencer Eunji Kim and baker Bryan Ford, try all the pizzas, it is time to pick a winner. That winner can choose an advantage in the final round or a prize.
Once they have made their decision, it is time for the final challenge, and the winner goes home $10,000 richer. But this round is more challenging because there is a set of six new judges who are fans of eating pizza. And they get to try surprising ingredients on a pizza like lemon or BBQ salmon. No one knows what the contestants are going to bring, but they all bring it, especially the nonnas!
Actually, everyone brings it. And the themed episodes make it more exciting. There is a guy who has 1,600 pizza boxes in his closet. Is he also a closet pizza maker? And how do three different BBQ cooks do in the kitchen when they have to make a pizza? I wouldn’t be surprised if they added it to the menu.
And these are just the first three episodes that are streaming now. I can’t wait to see what the next 7 bring.
As much as I love this show, I wish it came with a warning. That warning is that you need to order pizza before you press play because you will be craving it as you watch. Thankfully, I had the ingredients in the house, so I was able to make one inspired by one of the ones I saw on the show.
So if you like pizza, you are going to love Best In Dough. So tune in because you are not going to want to miss a single episode.
