- Who Domi-knows if Pizza Hut is better?
- Let's talk about that.
(light upbeat music)
- Good mythical morning!
It's late, you're tired,
and maybe you got a case of the midnight munchies,
but who you gonna call for that midnight za?
- Maybe you're a Domino's diehard,
but you could go for Pizza Hut,
which is exactly what YouTuber Amazing Phil did
and tweeted about it.
He said, "Cheating on Domino's with Pizza Hut."
Woop-woop.
- Mm-hmm, and then, the Pizza Hut tweet person was like,
"Ooh, a famous YouTuber tweeted about us!
"This is my chance.
"I better respond with something dope."
And he said, "Hope you're enjoying it!"
(crew laughing)
That's some big crust energy right there.
- Wow.
Then, Domino's, feeling completely threatened,
chimed in, "Sounds like a momentary lapse.
"Please don't do it again."
- And it seems like Domino's intimidation tactics worked
because Phil went on to tweet about them
in 2013, 2014, and 2016.
- What happened in 2015?
- Twitter was down. - Ah.
But which pizza chain is the most tweet-worthy?
Today, we take the two pizza places
at the top of the financial and cultural fast-food chain
and decide definitively
which deserves to be totally dominant.
It's time for Food Feuds: Domino's versus Pizza Hut.
- We're gonna taste signature menu items
from each restaurant head-to-head and rate 'em one to 10.
In the end, the winner will be crowned
the ultimate pizza chain of preeminent perfection,
in our opinion, and they will win a chance
to sponsor a GMM episode.
- Let us pizza.
(bell dinging)
- First, we're comparing their thin crust options.
- And we're going to be eating pepperoni
because we are grown men
and we don't eat cheese pizza anymore!
- Hey. - Hey.
- Hi, I'm Domino's Dirk, and I'm gonna be the one preparing,
testing for quality, and delivering your pizza,
which you can see me doing on a Pizza Tracker app.
I also do a lot of other things
on the Pizza Tracker app that you can't see.
Anyways, enjoy your crispy thin crust pepperoni pizza.
- Okay, all right, all right. - Thank you, Dirk, thank you.
- [Link] All right.
- Hey. - Hey, hey Dirk.
- I like your hair.
- Oh, there's some relational tension happening.
- There's history, there's history.
- [Link] Hey there.
- I love you.
(crew laughing)
Hi, Pizza Hut Patty.
Who ordered--
- We did.
- Pizza Hut thin and crispy pepperoni pizza?
- [Rhett] That was us.
- Yeah. - Thanks, Patty.
Oh.
Patty's got a lotta piercings.
- Now, I didn't--
- [Rhett] They put it in squares?
- What's it called when they cut it in squares?
- Sicilian! (laughing)
- Siskillyan?
- And if they cut it with scissors, that's Roman.
- Yeah.
- Dink it, and sink it.
Hmm.
- Okay, so this is considered crunchy thin crust.
There's not a lotta crunch though.
- Well, there's a little bit of age on it
'cause of it getting here,
so we're not gonna hold that against 'em.
Meh, doesn't taste bad.
It's just not the, it's not the kinda--
I typically don't order the thin crust.
I feel like I'm not getting my money's worth,
which in this case is $14.99 or $14.49.
- Oh, this is super close.
Does the fact that it's cut in a triangle
do anything for ya?
- Makes that first bite more fun.
- Wow.
- I don't think I'm a big fan of the thin crust,
so I'm gonna be rating both of these a little bit lower.
I'm gonna give this a six.
- I gotta go with a six as well
because I wanted to say seven,
but that seems a little too good,
and five seems not good enough.
Six.
I'm gonna give this a six as well.
- I'm gonna give it a seven
because I prefer the pointiness. (laughing)
(bell dinging)
- Okay, now we're gonna check out
if these pizza places are one-trick ponies
or able to fly like multiple trick ponies with wings!
- Chicken wings. - Because we're having wings.
- Hi, these are hot wings.
They're wings with hot sauce.
And they're hot.
They're fire.
They're hot wi-- - Hey, Dirk.
- Oh.
- I made you a mix CD.
- Oh.
- It's mostly Evanescence and Bloodhound Gang.
(crew laughing)
Hi. - You know each other?
- Yeah.
All right, here's some dead spicy chickens for you--
(Rhett laughing) - From Pizza Hut.
- Wow.
- So, Pizza Hut delivers theirs in some sort of a globe!
WingStreet bringing the globe heat!
- I don't know if that's good though
because I think that this makes them crispier.
You wanna start over here? - Yeah, yeah.
- [Rhett] You wanna start at the Domino's?
- Now, I'm more of a--
What's it called when you get, not the drumette.
- A flat. - A flat.
- I've had these wings.
They're definitely not nearly as good as a Wingstop,
like a real wing place.
But...
They kinda get the job done;
you know, the job of getting chicken into your mouth.
- My main issue is that they're soggy.
They're tasty; they've got a really good taste, but--
- Well, they're not fried, they're baked.
- And they're wrapped in foil and delivered,
so there's no way that they're not gonna be sogged out.
Unless... - Just to keep these--
These almost have a...
- I mean, look at how much they're bigger.
Well, they're slightly bigger.
- Oh wow, that's a good fla--
Is that their buffalo flavor?
- [Josh] Yeah.
- That's tangy, man!
- Mmm!
- These are way better!
- They're not as hot.
- They almost have a sweet and sour chicken thing going on.
There's something I really like about it.
- Almost wouldn't call 'em hot wings.
- And they're also fried.
I mean, they look fried.
They taste fried.
- Are they fried?
- [Josh] They are, yeah.
- And these are baked, we're right about that.
- [Josh] I believe that's correct.
- Like, pizza oven baked kind of a situation.
- Okay.
- Wow, so let's start by ranking, by rating the Domino's,
which are $7.99.
- I think this is like...
I'm comparing them to all chicken wings.
And on a scale of one to 10 chicken wings, that's a four.
- I agree, I'm giving that a four.
These are...
These are a bit surprising.
I'm trying to figure out,
are they hot but just not as hot as those?
- They're a little spicy, not as spicy as these.
But I actually like the flavor profile better
and I like the fact that it's a classic,
classically fried chicken wing.
Now, it's not nearly as good as Wingstop,
so I'm gonna give it a seven.
Cool seven.
- I'm in total agreement and was also thinking a seven.
- Oh, okay.
I'll have another one in celebration of our agreement.
(bell dinging)
- Now, we're getting ready for the big money,
the hand-tossed standard pizza we all know and love,
done up all purty with classic supreme toppings, right?
- Uh-huh, yeah.
It's a hand-tossed pan pizza,
pepperoni, Italian sausage, green peppers,
mushrooms, onions, mozzarella cheese.
- Did you write that on your palm?
- Uh-huh, 'cause I can't memori--
- Hey, Dirk.
Did you listen to the mix CD?
- Yeah, it was like our hot sauce.
It was hot fire.
(crew laughing)
I wrote you a poem.
- Oh my god.
- We're bringing people together today.
- Hey.
This is our Pizza Hut hand-tossed supreme pizza.
It has pepperoni, green bell peppers, sausage,
onions; you're breath's gonna smell really bad after this.
- I think he's into you.
- (laughing nervously) Okay.
(laughing)
- Wow, okay.
- Now, may I point out the size of the sausage?
- Why don't you touch the sausage on your own piece?
(crew laughing)
And I'll grab my own.
- That is...
The toppings are, (pausing) are bigger.
- I'm completely forgetting which place it's from.
I can't even see the box, I can only see the pizza.
- I mean, that is a big hunk of sausage.
- I'm satisfied with this pizza.
- Sausage is my favorite topping,
so I really like that there's--
- Yeah, but, I mean-- - There's more to it.
- Yeah, but there's only two, one to two pieces of sausage
on each piece because the sausage pieces are so big.
- That's a good point.
Now, for this one, which is Pizza Hut,
I'm just gonna say it--
- There's five pieces of sausage,
six pieces of sausage on this one.
- $18, 50 cent more for the Domino's.
- You just said $18.50 more.
It's only 50 cent more.
- That's what I meant. - Yeah.
So, I don't think price is really a determining factor.
- Here's the thing--
- Whoa, I just cross-contaminated.
- The sausage--
I know I'm harping on the sausage here.
And again, well, there's not another sausage
to eat on that piece.
- This sausage taste better.
- So much better.
- Yeah.
- If I just eat the sausage by itself from the Pizza Hut,
it tastes like a breakfast sausage.
- Okay.
- This is like an Italian--
- This is what's happening in my mind.
See if you agree with this.
The flavors on the whatever this one is, Domino's,
are better.
The form factor on this pizza is better.
The crust seems like it would taste better.
The sausage is more spread out.
But the flavor is more bland, and I gotta go with taste.
I'm gonna choose taste over texture every single day.
- Well, we should taste the back crust too
before we make our final decision.
- Pizza Hut's got better crust
'cause it's about the form factor.
- Hmm...
- But this tastes better.
- I like the Domino's crust taste better.
- Yeah, it tastes better, but this kinda feels better.
- I'm gonna give the Domino's pizza an eight.
- We're on the same train today, my friend,
'cause I'm gonna give it an eight as well.
- I'm disappointed in this experience.
I mean, it's really let me down.
- I like the form factor, so I'm gonna go with six.
It doesn't taste bad,
but compared to this, it's not as good, so six.
- Five for me. - Okay.
- No apologies, just an apologetic-looking face.
(bell dinging)
- Ordering dessert at a pizza place
is like saying, "Hey, I'm already doing this.
"Let's just lean all the way in."
- I'm leaning!
- So, these are our cinnamon bread twists.
Crusty on the outside, soft on the inside,
and this comes with a side of icing.
- [Rhett] Kinda like you.
- (laughing) I'm sweet, like the icing.
- Hey, Dirk. - Hi.
- I got your note.
You're cool too. - You wanna go out with me?
- (gasping) Yeah.
- Okay. - Yeah.
Can I give you something to remember me by?
- Yeah, please.
(crew laughing)
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- I'm so glad that there's been a love connection today.
- I think he was eating your nose rings as he walked off.
- Really?
(crew laughing)
These are our cinnamon sticks.
- Cinnamon what?
- Sticks.
- [Rhett] (laughing) So, we got twists, we got sticks.
- [Link] Okay.
- And we got icing on both, both places.
- See, my relationship with Pizza Hut goes way back.
I remember in high school--
- [Both] After the football games--
- We'd go over to the Lillington Pizza Hut and sit down
and just raise Cain.
- And then the football team would come in.
Glenn Sorrell would come in.
- Woo, Glenn's here! (clapping)
- Glenn Sorrell.
- Everybody give Glenn a piece of pizza, he did great!
- He'd come in in his letter jacket.
- They didn't win, because they never win,
but we like you, Glenn! - That's right.
- Ooh, dip it--
Ooh, that's some thickness.
- He's a state trooper.
- Oh, we gotta stay on his good side.
- Yeah.
- Dink it.
I've never had these.
Mmm.
Mmm!
- That's really nice.
- Man, I'm gonna be skipping to dessert from now on.
- That's like pulling apart a Cinnabon.
- Yeah it is.
- Okay.
- And you can scrape it on that stuff,
the more cinnamon-y stuff at the bottom.
- Oh wow, that's just straight up cinnamon and sugar mixed.
- Now, for these--
- Totally different situation here.
- Now, I'm excited about these because--
- You like the doughy stuff.
- I like doughy.
So, I'm going for the middle.
And do you wanna go for a crust?
- I'll go for the end, I'll go for the end.
Oh whoa, ooh, oh.
- That is soft.
- Wow, that seems really nice as well.
- But you see there's not as much cinnamon and sugar
because they're as a unit.
The icing--
- Oh my. - Seems to be very similar.
- It almost has a pizza crust thing going, doesn't it?
- Yeah, here's the thing.
- [Rhett] This is not easy.
- I definitely prefer the Domino's frosting
over the Pizza Hut frosting.
It's thicker.
It's almost like, you know, that Toaster Strudel icing.
- Yeah.
I know it well.
- This is thinner and more...
More liquified.
And it doesn't taste as good.
So, I'm definitely giving the cinnamon points,
I mean, the icing points to Domino's.
- These are both very good desserts.
Better than I expected.
There's actually a nice crispiness on the outside of these.
They get a little chewy on the inside.
- And these are fluffy, soft.
It's like a cloud.
- Man, there's a lot to love.
- If that icing was with this, I'd be in heaven.
- I like the icing on both.
In fact, I'll just dip this-- - Right now, I'm torn.
- Oh yeah, this is this.
I like the icing on both of 'em.
- I never thought I would prefer
a chewier crispy dessert item, but I gotta say,
I'm definitely liking the total package over here.
There's more surface area to get that butter,
that crispiness, the cinnamon-ness.
- I think these are a little bit more
of an original offering as well
and there's more cinnamon and sugar,
which is really what you're trying to get to.
These are really good.
I'm gonna go all the way to a nine on these.
- 10, baby.
- You're going all the way to 10?
- I'm tenning it up, and I'm giving this a eight.
- I'm going to an eight on those as well.
So, Pizza Hut comes in with an overall score of 54,
while Domino's comes in
with an overall score of just one more, 55!
But that is enough to win! - What?!
- Domino's, you are the ultimate pizza chain
of preeminent perfection, according to us.
