i used to be a driver for papa johns about 5 years ago. in a way i miss it. it was fun and i loved our customers. making the pizza was almost a science. i used to be a real chef before working there and i used to take the screens from the oven by hand. i always had to tell the new guys to not copy me, lol. i had nearly 2 decades of experience that allowed me to be able to do that. i had better pizza, but papa johns was and still is worth it to me. also i never found a pizza that is better cold the next day as papa johns is. PS: i love the PI-day upload being pizza.
This explains why for the last few years, Papa John' crust has been different, flatter around the edges, harder, almost crispy. It used to be fatter, doughier, nice. I complained once, with pictures, and they sent me two new pizzas later, but they were the same. It's a bother because that is the part of Papa Johns pizza that I crave.
Used to work there. They added machines that roll out the dough much faster, which seems great until you realize it can't make a good crust like when you do it by hand. Recently, Papa John's has started to shift to quantity over quality in my opinion.
I guess their current formula isn't to your liking. If they change the formula to fit your taste, someone else is gonna complain. I guess the inconsistency is something that's beneficial. If a store is making something to your preference, you can stick to that store.
My family never ordered ANY pizza besides Papa John's because of the quality. We moved to a different state around when Papa John's changed the dough, but we didn't know about that. We just assumed it was because this different store didn't make it the same way. So we tried a different store...and another store...and all three of them were NOWHERE even close to being as good as back in the day. Now, we only buy pizzas from small town places with verified reviews for authenticity and quality. No Dominos, Papa John's, Pizza Hut, Marco's, none of that
they always raw and doughy in the middle... 3 different stores ive been to are like that now. i gotta say well done jus for it to b finished. and that stuffed crust can make u sick raw dough served and the cheese never hit safe temp
My aunt used to be a supervisor at one of these plants. Talk about free dough. Always had dough in my freezer. Once they hit their mark for the day. All extra dough was tossed or the employees took it home. Topping once they hit 1 week before expiration it went to the trash or employees.
I worked for a Domino's franchise in the late 80's through the mid 90's (high-school and college years for me). Our goal was a start-to-finish time (start at the make-line to oven) for any pizza was like 75 seconds... without those machines. Amongst other competitions, one corporate and franchise one was the "pep time" - a large (16") pepperoni pizza start to finish by one person (dough pulled from tray, stretched, slapped, screened, sauced, cheesed, topped and then placed on the oven coveyor). My best was 38 seconds.... no where close to the world record! 😂 My store's (at the time) record was 275 pizzas in one hour. My forearms looked like Popeye after working dough like that for a few years!
My favorite pizza place in town is a small place run by one guy and his kid. First time I ordered there I asked on the phone how long before the pizza would be here and he started yelling “it’s done when it’s done you get it after I make it” then he mumbled something in Italian and hung up. Pizza came about an hour later. Best pizza I’ve had
It's frozen (or used to be) & would slightly thaw out enroute to the store. Used to need 24 hrs in the store fridge before we'd use it. So much wasted cheese & pepperoni on the make line.
@@Barneys69Ruiz it's called exaggeration As someone who's worked in a papa johns, yeah its colder than most walk in coolers, but it's definitely NOT a freezer.
@@TheMagykKonch It kills a lot of germs, but some stuff can survive being boiled/cooked, depending on the temperature. I wouldn't always bet on that being the cure-all for poor food prep. Besides, when you take food safety tests for certification in many states, they tell you not to wear crap like that and to keep your nails short and clean if you're not wearing gloves. I don't know where they're at or what the laws are, but that's still gross.
@@user-sk5zu9qf6wsanitising your hands isnt gonna last you a whole work day. it needs to be done throughout the day or your hands will just get dirty again
I work at Papa Johns. We are required to wash our hand constantly. We wash and sanitize our hand as soon as we come in and after touching anything that could contaminate food, aka money, face, trash, etc
The docking of the pizza is for the hot air to flow through the pizza and cook it more evenly. Also it eliminates bubbles from forming. These 2 key items were not mentioned in the video.
Switching the wings packaging is convenient for the workers, but companies like Papa John's always do the bs of saying they're climate friendly while switching from carboard and tinfoil to plastic packaging which is way less climate friendly.
Newer forklifts have computer screens detailing what storage location each item is at. Some can also reach a pick with more precision and ease than older models.
Idk about the US but Papa John’s is prob the best pizza in Korea. Every other chain like pizza hut, dominoe’s localized it to cater to Korean tastes, and needless to say some of it arent even pizza lmao. Kudos to Papa John’s for making actual pizza in Korea.
@@ElysetheEevee Well, a lot of pizza franchises dont seem to use tomato sauce the way the US does? It looks and tastes kinda like watered down ketchup(except papa johns) Also places like Dominoe's here uses barbeque sauce, some mayonnaise base sauce instead of tomate sauce on some of their menus....
I can't believe that at 4:24 this guy said that they have people come to work on their day off for a video that's gonna end on the internet. That's a bit of a slip for such a large company.
That's a franchisee problem and it happens with all the big chains when they speed up the belt. But, Papa Johns does give a "well done" option for online ordering.
@@cshubs Fair enough, Thought you were just wanting it a lil more cooked because your a regular at these disgusting dominos spots not even cooking it will save the pizza.. But since your from new haven Your lucky lol
I make my pizzas at home most of the time. I know the Pizza Hut where I live will go out of business and dominos I'm not sure of but Little Caesars is always packed.

I work at Papa Johns and the walk in coolers we have at stores are also like that and they are above freezing. After being in there so long you really start to get cold even if it's not freezing
The dudes working in the "test kitchen" have the most basic ideas and somehow these ideas are only coming up in recent years - but i bet they are way overpaid compared to the workers who actually do all the work that keeps the business running.
@@RudieObias yeah but look at what they came up with, just replaced the cardboard and foil with a plastic box and oh look at this amazing hole to hold the sauce. Its a total joke dude, and the fact that these ideas werent already thought of and put in place like 20 years ago makes it an even bigger joke. A machine to stretch the dough? Like come on, making a pizza only has a few steps - its not hard to think of making a machine that does one of the most repetitive parts of that job.
@@Zero11_ss Yes, it's obvious now. But hours of engineering came up with that design. Hours of logics to make sure they can have it made at scale. Hours of training to make sure workers know how to use it properly. Hours to figure out how to ship to thousands of stores nationwide at cost. Hours of figuring out if these plastic containers are profitable. Hours to figure out recycling regulation for each state. And hours to implement and execute at scale. And that's just for one plastic box. Can your average pizza shop worker figure that out on such a large scale, while making it run smoothly so the pizza shop doesn't lose sales in shipping, training, and implementation?
@@RudieObias you are highly overvaluing the work these guys are doing and youre also confusing their job with multple other jobs. Logistics(distribution) is not their job for example.

Having recently tried papa jhon’s pizza for the first time in Toronto, Ontario Canada, I can say it will be the last as there are 10 Better pizza options within walking distance. 3/10 at best
@@ww4575 Ahh yes disgusting pizza.. with dough thats like biting into a stale cardboard box.. just how the sheep like it 🙄 I feel sorry for the people who traveled across from Italy across the ocean on a boat with the recipe just to have big corp push them out to feed the npc's
@@DempigYour apart of the problem.. If you want low protein gruel just like in the cult Simpsons episode then just say so.. No one wants to see a bunch of dominos everywhere and less Authentic Pizzerias with a man punching and kicking the dough for more flavor
From a Papa Johns worker: 3 reasons the quality's gone downhill- 1) Ingredients are mass shipped & not fresh. Before they'd have us cut fresh vegetables. Now it's all bagged pre-cut vegetables 2) The pay ain't terrible but they purposely understaff stores to save every penny on labor costs, rather than try & boost sales for a better product... so people prep dough hours ahead of time because they can't handle a rush & just sauce it when an order comes in. Not supposed to do that. 3) instead of exclusively hand-tossing, more n more stores use a dough spinner now & that makes the pizzas flat as a pancake Bottom line, Papa Johns sacrifices freshness to be cheap. Highway robbery cost for pizza, unbelievably stingy with cutting labor costs, they cut corners instead
They have to raise everything in quality and stand out because I think they are just surviving and really the food leaves you feeling like you ate a bunch of it because you paid for it and not because it was delicious. A one time grease bomb and you might order it again in a year or two when the memory fades .
Which is why I don't eat Pizza Hut or Dominos anymore 🤢 Out here, Papa Johns is thriving pretty well. Most other pizza places closed because their customer service dropped.
For sure The pizza is more alive when you have a person make it and not a Fx,,cn robot.. Disgusting ! People's standards have dropped so low its Embarrassing
@@jessifer23f I don't get it either.. Its like they want it faster so they can make more money faster pace for less quality.. to them we are just consumer sheep.. Doesn't matter how stale and cardboard like the dough is... Just send it out! Im so sick of it.. Normal Delicious pizza 10 -15 mins for REAL food or 10 mins for some Cardboard with toppings 🤮
Not just plastic, Transparent and black, I know Recycling is a fad but even if it lands in the right spot the sensors have a hard time picking up black and transparent
@@blikpils Maybe where you live, but here we recycle almost everything. Weekly food waste collections (fertiliser and bio gas), paper/cardboard/metal/glass all recycled, and most plastics have to be made from recyclable material. Most plastic packaging is now recycled and Coke bottles etc all proclaim they're 95% recycled material. The rest is mostly incinerated as landfill tax is VERY expensive.
Ahhh yes the story of the franchise, everything is controlled in central kitchens, then shipped out to other franchise locations so everything is the same, and absolutely nothing is done in house fresh.

1:20 "Every item that is edible and every item that is inedible comes out of this facility"
Yea sounds like a papa John's pizza
one time i saw a papa johns right next to a dominos
Wow forklifts help people be faster. I never would have guessed. Man papa John’s spoiled their employees
0:45 that's 3.66 hours saved
Whoever thought of that wing thingy couldn’t think to toss em either hate the new wing packaging for that reason only 8:04
how does their pizza taste like the boxes they come in
Most delivery pizza does. Pizza shouldn't be in a box 30 minutes.... Delivery is trash
The Papa John's that get my business make much better pizza than what you are talking about.
How are you trying to get a family guy joke through like it's your own?
We need more carlin tucker .
Papa John's makes me break out in a rash.
It’s not dominos that’s for sure
@@ww4575 Ahh yes disgusting pizza.. with dough thats like biting into a stale cardboard box.. just how the sheep like it 🙄 I feel sorry for the people who traveled across from Italy across the ocean on a boat with the recipe just to have big corp push them out to feed the npc's
@@alitharealist4730 lol its fast food pizza its not that serious my guy
@@DempigYour apart of the problem.. If you want low protein gruel just like in the cult Simpsons episode then just say so.. No one wants to see a bunch of dominos everywhere and less Authentic Pizzerias with a man punching and kicking the dough for more flavor
You might have gluten intolerance.
From a Papa Johns worker:
3 reasons the quality's gone downhill-
1) Ingredients are mass shipped & not fresh. Before they'd have us cut fresh vegetables. Now it's all bagged pre-cut vegetables
2) The pay ain't terrible but they purposely understaff stores to save every penny on labor costs, rather than try & boost sales for a better product... so people prep dough hours ahead of time because they can't handle a rush & just sauce it when an order comes in. Not supposed to do that.
3) instead of exclusively hand-tossing, more n more stores use a dough spinner now & that makes the pizzas flat as a pancake
Bottom line, Papa Johns sacrifices freshness to be cheap. Highway robbery cost for pizza, unbelievably stingy with cutting labor costs, they cut corners instead
STARTED IN QUEENS NEW YORK
Good
They have to raise everything in quality and stand out because I think they are just surviving and really the food leaves you feeling like you ate a bunch of it because you paid for it and not because it was delicious. A one time grease bomb and you might order it again in a year or two when the memory fades .
Which is why I don't eat Pizza Hut or Dominos anymore 🤢
Out here, Papa Johns is thriving pretty well. Most other pizza places closed because their customer service dropped.
Love papa john this pizza 🍕😘
That’s why the pizza doesn’t taste the same the thing to make it flat takes away the pizza texture it used to have 😒😔
Rather make homemade.
ok
For sure The pizza is more alive when you have a person make it and not a Fx,,cn robot.. Disgusting ! People's standards have dropped so low its Embarrassing
@@alitharealist4730 I don't get why people are such in a hurry to get food. Quick doesn't make it better.
@@jessifer23f I don't get it either.. Its like they want it faster so they can make more money faster pace for less quality.. to them we are just consumer sheep.. Doesn't matter how stale and cardboard like the dough is... Just send it out! Im so sick of it.. Normal Delicious pizza 10 -15 mins for REAL food or 10 mins for some Cardboard with toppings 🤮

Do the white house next
So they replaced cardboard with plastic. Genius. Not.
From a "business" point of view it is. From the "rest of us" point of view... Not.
Not just plastic, Transparent and black, I know Recycling is a fad but even if it lands in the right spot the sensors have a hard time picking up black and transparent
@@blikpils Maybe where you live, but here we recycle almost everything. Weekly food waste collections (fertiliser and bio gas), paper/cardboard/metal/glass all recycled, and most plastics have to be made from recyclable material. Most plastic packaging is now recycled and Coke bottles etc all proclaim they're 95% recycled material. The rest is mostly incinerated as landfill tax is VERY expensive.
I thought the same
Our store went back to cardboard. Cost cutting.
Thank you great video 😊
Thanks for watching!
These staffs are so lucky they are using gloves. My old company tricked me into touching experimental plastic material by hand
For everyone who is interested: 13 seconds saved for 1000 pizzas is around 3,61 hours.
They did NOT invent that dough press! 😅 its been around way before 2019
Damn they don’t make it in house 😕….i used to work at a local pizza shop and we made all our dough fresh every morning
I can tell that a 'dough factory' just by looking at the people...
Pizza's size gone smaller or is it just in my country?
I order a cheeze pizza, but buy my on pineapple from the market. It tasted so much fresher!
8:26 so you’re saying that you make a pepperoni pizza faster than you can make a cheese pizza?
This shows its not real pizza lol. Just play doh from a machine 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ahhh yes the story of the franchise, everything is controlled in central kitchens, then shipped out to other franchise locations so everything is the same, and absolutely nothing is done in house fresh.
