Craving the smoky, charred perfection of a New York City coal-oven pizza without leaving home? Table 87 Frozen Pizzas deliver that authentic taste straight from the freezer to your oven. This category features two standout products: the convenient Margherita Pizza Slice (5.12 oz) for solo indulgence and the Coal Oven 10-inch Margherita Pizza (9.6 oz) for sharing. Ideal for busy weeknights, game days, or casual gatherings, these pizzas stand out for their premium ingredients and restaurant heritage.
Why Table 87 Excels in Frozen Pizzas
Table 87 draws from its roots as a beloved NYC pizzeria, known for coal-fired pies with crispy crusts, fresh mozzarella, and vibrant San Marzano tomatoes. Their frozen lineup captures this essence, using high-quality, simple ingredients without unnecessary preservatives. What sets them apart is the coal-oven simulation—even in your home oven, you get that signature char and chew. For shoppers in the Grocery & Gourmet Food aisle seeking elevated frozen options, Table 87 offers unmatched authenticity over mass-produced alternatives.
Comparing Table 87's Frozen Pizza Options
With just two products, choosing is straightforward, but each serves distinct needs. The Margherita Pizza Slice is a single-serving hero: foldable crust, tangy sauce, and melty cheese in a portable 5.12 oz package. Perfect for quick lunches or late-night snacks, it reheats in minutes while retaining its street-slice vibe.
The Coal Oven 10-inch Pizza expands on this with a full 9.6 oz pie, ideal for two people. It boasts a thinner, crispier base that bubbles beautifully under high heat, mimicking the pizzeria's coal oven. Both share the classic Margherita profile—basil-flecked, balanced flavors—but the full pizza allows customization with toppings if desired.
| Feature | Margherita Slice (5.12 oz) | Coal Oven 10-inch (9.6 oz) |
|---|
| Best For | Solo, on-the-go | Sharing, meals |
| Crust Style | Foldable, crispy | Thin, charred |
| Prep Time | 5-8 minutes | 10-12 minutes |
| Servings | 1 | 2 |
Opt for the slice if portability matters; go full pie for family dinners. Both bake from frozen at 450-500°F for optimal results.
