    The bottom crust didn't get crispy in the airfryer because of the tin foil. Like Frank said, the airfryer circulates air around the product. But if you have foil on the bottom, its obvious that isnt going to happen. 🤦‍♂️

    I don't have an airfryer, and I don't want a pizza sandwich (waffle iron method). I've been using my toaster oven to reheat pizza as long as I can remember. I like to put it at about 400 degrees and leave it long enough to really heat it through and get the cheese very melty. That can leave the outside crust a bit overdone, so I wrap some foil around the edge of the crust. This approach works very well for me.

    I have a toaster that can toast like a pop up toaster and a very small toaster oven. It can only bake very thin, flat things inside it, but it's perfect for reheating pizza. It's fast, crisps the bottom of the crust, remelts the cheese and gives the top of the crust a bit of crispiness as well and it does this so quickly you have to stand there and watch it so it doesn't over cook the pizza (no preheating required). 🙂 I love that toaster.

    Also helps if you get the pizza and it's a little too floppy. Turn your stove on like 8, toss it in the pan for a minute, maybe minute and thirty, and let that bottom crisp back up since it's probably been sitting on that soggy cardboard for 10 minutes, or more.

    If you have a non-stick skillet, why not start top-side-down? I have done this for years. The top gets hot and melty... and frequently leaves enough cheese/meat grease in the skillet so when you flip it crust down you swirl the crust in the pizza grease and let it get as crisp and toasty as you want. Also, nothing better than butter in the skillet to crisp the crust.

    Few sprinkles of water on the pizza + some sort of dish cover and maybe a minute in the microwave. In the meantime get a skillet heated with oil and finish the pizza base real quick in that to get the crispiness. Works like magic, and you can also use this method to re-crisp fried foods like french fries, fried chicken/wings, fish & chips, and fritters like Indian "pakoras" for the international cuisine appreciators.

    It depends on the pizza. But doing it in an air fryer or oven. 375°-400° For 4 minutes to 5 minutes works.

    I find that in nonstick pans you don't need the oil on the bottom, and I have never added water and am generally pleased with how it turns out.

    The reason for the floppy pizza result in the air fryer was given in the explanation of how it cooks. Since it’s a convection oven miniaturized putting foil under it removes the basic manner it cooks the underside of the pizza.

    I've tried almost every way to re-heat pizza, but I missed two of yours. I didn't try the cast iron pan (which I won't bother with) and the toaster oven. I'll try the latter. Oh! I also use a method using a non-stick frying pan, with no oil and aluminum foil loosely covering. Medium heat. Cook for about 15 minutes. Not bad - maybe 3.5 to 4.

    Frank, If you and your family ever get an air fryer just get a nice toaster oven with the air fryer feature. The toaster oven is a STAPLE all-in-one appliance IMO. 💯 P.S. I just started following your personal channel!

    No matter how you reheat it, it'll never be the same as when it was fresh, because the sauce attacks the crust over time. But you should definitely have an air-fryer in your kitchen, even if it's just a countertop convection oven. They're great for frozen fries.

    I use the toaster oven method at 500° for 5-7 minutes, but put it directly on the rack with foil on top, button gets real crispy while the cheese is melty but top doesn't burn!

    I was taught to preheat the over to 500F to best approximate how the slice was first cooked. Comes out great, in my experience.

    The trick with oven reheating is to start with the pizza slices upside down. You get that initial heat on the bottom crust, and then flip after a few minutes. This ensures perfectly crispy bottom crust every time.

    I always use my toaster oven to reheat pizza (I literally just had some for lunch). In mine though, I have to wrap a bit of foil around the crust, otherwise it burns.

    Air fryer works best assuming the amount you want to reheat fits, provided you dont obstruct the bottom. They have a non stick interior so I dont know why you would use foil or parchment. Convection toaster oven also works great.

    I have a no preheated oven version. Pizza on foil on a sheet pan in a cold oven set to 400 for 10 minutes. Perfect everytime. The bottom gets a lot of heat throughout the time but the cheese and upper crust take some time to get a lot of heat. You get a structurally crisp lower crust, melty lightly browned cheese, and soft upper crust with a crispy snap biting into it. Can't get much better 5/5

    You can also make french toasted pizza (sounds weird but trust me its the best way). Just dip the pizza in an egg mixture with whatever kinds of seasonings you want and cook it on a pan.

    My favorite method is the toaster oven but slightly differently. No need to pre-heat. Pop the slice on the rack so as to expose the bottom of the base. Crank the temperature to 250F (yes , low-heat, but hot enough) and let it sit for 7 to 10 minutes. This is the best. I guarantee it!

    nonstick pan is the best one, if you want the side and edge crispy, you can flip the pizza little bit , if you want quick and nice , 30 seconds microwave and heat the nonstick pan at the same , time ,30sec microwave done, then throw the pizza into pan for the crispy.

    I always go with Air Fryer. I do it for about 5 minutes at 280-300 and then do it for another 2-3 minutes on 325 or until the top starts to brown and it always reheats it well and the crust is always crispy. That's if I'm using Aluminum Foil though. Without the aluminum foil it reheats faster.

    I do mine just like any decent pizza shop heats slices, and it's dirt simple. Pre-heat the oven to 450 deg f (HOT!). Line a quarter-sheet with foil for easy clean up. Use a rack to hold the slice(s) off the foil. Heat for 10 minutes (more or less depending on how toasty you like the topping). Bingo. Crust is crispy, everything is hot. It's easy to do multiple slices if needed.

    They make a pizza pan for your oven that is round with a bunch of tiny holes in it. Pizza comes out just about the same way as the first time I ate it. Been using this method for 15+ years. Highly recommend.
