the gizmo...rarely seen in center city parts, mostly resides in the neighborhoods of port richmond and fishtown. it started at st. laurentius church in fishtown i believe (or so says my family).
basically, its the poor man's mini pizza, invented long before ellio's and tony's. all you need are hamburger buns, kraft singles, tomatoe sauce, italian seasonings, garlic salt and pepperoni if you're feeling spicy.
i think you know where i am going with this. you make mini pizzas and then you put 'em in the toaster oven. within 15 minutes you have a tasty treat that even flip flop girl could make.
yeah, its hokey, but i lovey-dove-dove.
and, if you want to center city it, just upgrade the quality of ingredients...you know; baguettes instead of buns, provolone or mozzarella instead of kraft and so on.
don't ever say there wasnt a recipe post on this blog :)
p.s. have no idea why they named it a gizmo, so please don't ask. just use your god damn imagination.
