Welcome. You have stumbled upon the best thick crust/deep dish style pizza in Colorado. It is actually just some of the best pizza you'll ever eat period. Lofty claims I know, and if my credentials and extensive lifelong research can't persuade you, then you'll just have to come and taste for yourself. This is true destination pizza, and worth the trip no matter the distance traveled to get here.
It isn't just Detroit style blue pan pizza done right, it is done better than most of its influences. There is a difference between homemade and scratch, and Propaganda Pie is a true scratch kitchen. Every piece of dough or bread and every drop of sauce was made in house with ingredients sourced as locally as possible and of the highest tier of quality.
The old guard of big city pizza joints (mostly) make homemade pizza with whatever ingredients are available to them. This is why they are consistent, reliable, and delicious. However, there is simply no substitute for scratch made freshness, the evidence of which is present with every bite you take here. The BBQ pizza is even made with burnt ends house smoked from the barbeque place the next town over. It's as next level as it sounds.
Not a fan of deep dish style pizza? No problem, I'm a sucker for a thin cracker crust sometimes as well. Wings, subs, salads, and apps are all as good as the pizza here and made with the same eye towards scratch made quality. Vegetarian options are plentiful, with welcome and inventive ingredient deviations from the old tired veggie pizza you're used to. Beer, wine, and a small list of perfectly executed cocktails are here to accompany your trip to red sauce heaven, (don't skip the Barrel-aged Manhattan.)
There is a lot of good pizza in Colorado. Many are unfortunately stuck behind an "artisan" label and served in uninspired or high end atmospheres. The vibe here is truly superior to any of its peers. Classic propaganda posters line the walls in a historic building in a tiny historic town. Here kind folks have been slinging some of the best food you could ever hope to find in Colorado for years. Relax outside by the river, play some yard games and have a slice and a beer. Devour an entire large square to yourself if you want to, I won't judge. Gluttony has rarely found a better bedfellow than...
Read moreBest pizza in Colorado! This is not an exaggeration. Overall this is the 2nd best pizza I have ever eaten. This is defined as “Detroit” style pizza. I do enjoy deep dish pizzas with a more oily crust (the way Pizza Hit used to be 😒). Anyways the pizza is served with all fresh ingredients, and cooked to perfection. Cooking deep dish is difficult for even chain restaurants as they tend to have either uncooked or soft spots or burn other parts in an effort to cook the whole pizza; both of our pizzas were served perfectly cooked!
We enjoyed a everything meat with each slice topped off with a large piece of ham and a dollop of ricotta on top. Also had a ‘supreme’ with the freshest vegetables that were not soggy or burnt, but perfectly cooked when served!!!
I will be going back here again. It is really far off the road which for sure makes this a destination. Not going to disclose the natural wonders near here due to people just in general being disgusting and disrespectful to nature 😡 Pick up your trash people, and leave your animals at home just one time: follow the rules for...
Read moreDefinitely part of the slow food movement. But then, we were in no hurry and didn't mind. My turkey grinder was delicious, nigh on perfect. I think folks were all distracted by the hunters who tied their llamas up out front. Among them was Uncle Leo, who I was led to believe is something of a celebrity in llama circles, having won the Fairplay to Loveland race or the Loveland 5k or somesuch. In any case, I wasn't expecting a brush with fame today, and if it was to be with a shaggy ruminant, then so be it. He did have a rather pronounced underbite, and he stared at me a bit overmuch as though he was concerned about my salvation, but sincerely.
It should be noted that we didn't order a pie, as I hold deep dish pizza to be an abomination. That is not to say they do it poorly. They may do it justice. But where does that leave you? Stick with the other menu choices and don't be led down...
