How To Freeze Pizza Hut Pizza

Before you put those leftover slices in the freezer, there is something you should know.

When you reheat that frozen Pizza Hut pizza, it won’t taste quite as good as it did when it was freshly delivered to your home.

That being said, it will still taste good – just not as good.

For the best results here, you need to freeze your Pizza Hut pizza the right way.

And to do that, you need two things –

plastic wrap
air tight container

You do need to freeze the pizza flat and you can either cut it up into slices and freeze it that way, or you can freeze the whole pie.

Personally, I think it is easier to freeze it in cut up slices because it will take up less space this way and because that way you only have to take out what you need from the freezer.

This is a great benefit if you are single or just two people in the household.

Here’s the steps for properly freezing leftover Pizza Hut pizza:

1. Let it cool

Since you have to wrap the pizza, it needs to be cool instead of warm.

2. Slice it up

You don’t have to slice it up, but I definitely recommend it.

3. Wrap it in plastic wrap

Whether you are freezing it as a whole pizza or individual slices, you need to wrap it in plastic wrap.

The plastic wrap should be tightly wrapped and you’ll want to do two to three layers of it for the best results.

4. Put it in an air tight container

I like to use the large freezer bags for this, but you can use any air tight container that is freezer-safe.

Just make sure that you get the container properly sealed.

5. Put it in the freezer

Place the air tight container in your freezer.

Make sure that the pizza is lying flat though because you don’t want it to freeze in a weird shape.

Can You Refreeze Pizza Hut Pizza?

While you can refreeze your leftover Pizza Hut pizza, you should not do it.

It does not refreeze well and when you thaw it, it will taste horrible.

So, once you thaw out your frozen Pizza Hut pizza slices, you need to eat them or toss them because they do not hold up well for refreezing and re-thawing.

How Long Can You Freeze Pizza Hut Pizza?

For the best results, you can only freeze leftover Pizza Hut pizza for up to three months.

Anything longer than that and it ends up too freezer burnt to be worth eating.

How Do You Cook Frozen Pizza Hut Pizza?

The most important thing here is that you need to give it time to thaw out.

Never cook frozen Pizza Hut pizza without letting it defrost.

The best way to thaw your frozen Pizza Hut pizza is in your refrigerator – just take it out of the plastic wrap and put it in some Tupperware to defrost.
