Do you cook Papa Murphys pizza on the cardboard

Papa Murphy’s slogan is “We make it fresh. You bake it to perfection.” That explains exactly what the company’s aim is – to provide freshly made pizzas that you can bake yourself at home.

Are you tired of soggy, cold pizza that’s already begun to congeal by the time the pizza delivery guy gets it to you? Do you long for the aromas of homemade pizza wafting through your home yet don’t want to go to all the effort of making it from scratch?

Papa Murphy’s allows you to have hot pizza that’s ready when you are. You get to be creative and customize your toppings, sauces, and crusts.

The Mini Murph kids’ packs are wonderful for kids’ parties and allow kids’ natural creativity to shine through. Papa Murphy’s respects those with different lifestyle goals by offering vegetarian, gluten-free, or crustless options.

While the website offers “baking instructions” that tell you how long to bake each variety – for instance, thin-crust pizza baked for 12-18 minutes, people want to know, “Do you cook Papa Murphy’s pizza on the cardboard?” Don’t worry, we have all the information you need right here!

Here’s a quick answer about how to bake Papa Murphy’s pizzas at home:

1. Preheat your oven
2. Unwrap the plastic wrap from the pizza
3. Put it onto the cardboard tray provided
4. Put the pizza into the hot oven for the recommended time. It should be golden brown.

For more detailed instructions about baking Papa Murphy’s Pizza, keep reading the information below.

1. Heat your oven to 425 ˚F. If you are making stuffed pizza, set the oven at 350˚F.
2. Remove the plastic wrap and put the pizza on the cardboard tray.
3. When the oven is up to the right temperature, put the pizza on its tray on the center rack of the oven. If the pizza has a thin crust, put it on the lower rack of the oven. In the case of an original crust, you need to bake the pizza for up to eighteen minutes but increase the baking time to over forty minutes for stuffed pizza.
4. If you want a crispy crust, remove the pizza from the oven after 10 minutes. Discard the cardboard tray and put the pizza back into the oven, directly on the oven rack, for the rest of the baking time. Be sure to use oven mitts while doing this.

Grilling The Pizza

We have given you instructions for oven baking the pizza but if you want to grill it, that’s also possible. For this purpose, you can use a wood pellet grill, gas grill, or charcoal grill. This method will produce amazing, smoky flavors.

However, we do want to mention that grilling the pizza will take longer to cook it evenly. For the most part, it can take up to forty minutes (it includes the grill prepping time as well).

As you can see, grilling the pizza isn’t a suitable choice for people who want to have a quick meal. We recommend removing the cardboard tray if you are going to grill your pizza.

Refrigeration

When you buy the Papa Murphy’s Pizza, you have an hour to decide whether you want to bake it immediately or refrigerate it. This is because the pizza dough will be raw and leaving it at room temperature will result in the pizza going bad.

If you decide to refrigerate the pizza and bake it later, be sure to take it out of the fridge an hour before you want to bake it. This will bring it up to room temperature before baking, resulting in a crispier crust and better results overall.

The Leftovers

In the unlikely event of there being leftovers, you can put them into airtight containers or bags before putting them into the fridge. In addition, you can use plastic foil or plastic wrap to wrap every slice individually to protect it from the air.

This cooked leftover pizza should be consumed within four days. Alternatively, you can freeze them and use them within two months. Reheat leftover pizza either in the oven, toaster, or skillet.

To Conclude

Papa Murphy’s Pizzas are convenient and delicious. You should bake them on the cardboard tray, yes.

If you want a crisp finish to your pizza base, remove the cardboard tray after ten minutes and place the pizza directly on the oven rack for the remaining cooking time. We hope you enjoy your delicious, no-effort, home-baked pizza!
