Pizza cooking instructions

If your pizzas are still frozen when they arrive or are cool to the touch, place them in the freezer and bake them within 30 days. For the ultimate pizza, bake from a frozen state according to the following instructions:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 
• Remove lid and lift pizza out of the pan.
• Wipe away condensation from the pan and lightly oil the pan.
• Return pizza to the pan and bake on the middle rack until cheese melts and crust becomes crispy and golden brown.
• Baking times vary for each type of pizza and length of bake time is indicated on the lid of each pizza.

If the pizza has thawed decrease bake time by 5 minutes. Microwave cooking is not recommended.

Thawing Instructions for Meats:

Product can be frozen up to six months. For the best experience, thaw meats in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours prior to use. Place frozen product on a plate, or in an open container, to avoid any condensation from dripping as it melts. Keep thawed product in refrigerator and use within 4 days after thawing.

Ribs

Grill: Thaw (see above on how to thaw). Heat grill to 350 degrees. Remove ribs from package, place ribs bone-side down on grill. Heat for three minutes, flip and heat for three minutes. Baste with sauce and heat for an additional two to three minutes.

Oven: Thaw (see above on how to thaw). Remove from packaging. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place ribs, bone-side down, on a foil lined sheet pan or oven-safe baking dish. Heat for 18 minutes or to desired doneness.

Peppers

Stove-Top: (boil in bag): Thaw (see above note on how to thaw). Bring large pot of water to a rapid boil. Submerge ribs (do not remove packaging) in boiling water for approximately 8 minutes. Time may vary but ribs are ready when soft, tender and pliable.
