WOMAN: The Big Dill
is a pickle pizza
topped with a cream cheese
based sauce very garlicky.
Covered with our mozzarella
cheese, lots and lots
of pickles and dill weed.
The dill pickle
pizza has brought out
people literally
out of the woodwork,
coming in just to have it.
I'm a dill pickle fanatic.
I love the dill pickle pizza.
It's great.
I even brought my
yodeling dill pickle.

My dad, Rodney Langel, started
Langel's Pizza 40 years ago
and it's a pizzeria sports
bar here in Highland, Indiana.
We're family owned and operated.
Local name.
Everybody has come to know us.
And we love what we do.
We have so much food that we do.
A pizza of the month,
dessert of the month,
a sandwich of the month.
We're switching it up
and we're trying to do
some different creative things.
So I started
experimenting at home,
and came up with the sauce.
A lot of things didn't work.
The concept wasn't mine,
but the recipe is mine.
It's a good balance
between savory
and that nice vinegar hit
you get with the pickle.
I thought it was
going to be really good,
but this is a lot better than
I thought it was going to be.
So we start out with
a 10 ounce dough ball.
And then we put the
secret sauce on,
which is a cream cheese base.
I'll let that slide.
It's very garlicky.
To thin it down, we use
a little pickle juice.
Then the cheese.
And the pickles go on last.
A lot, a lot of pickles.
We want to pickle in every bite.
A little more cheese,
sprinkle of dill,
and then we bake it
for about 10 minutes.
We got some really
strange reactions,
but the pickle lovers ordered
it right away and they love it.
It is completely dill.
One of my favorite
things is a dill pickle,
and it hits the
flavor perfectly.
We're a huge pickle
fanatic family.
We all love pickles.
So when we saw it on the
menu and been ordering it,
they loved it too.
One of their favorites.
I was already telling
her every Saturday,
we have to have a pizza
like pickle pizza night.
It's you get a burst of flavor.
All the flavors just
are complemented.
WOMAN: The dill pickle
pizza has been a huge hit.
WOMAN: It's good old
American pride to know
that we got a winner this time.
WOMAN: It has been one
of my favorite pizzas.
WOMAN: This is like
a 10 out of 10.
WOMAN: It goes good with beer.
WOMAN: It's delicious.
WOMAN: It was amazing.
WOMAN: You just definitely
taste the pickles.
WOMAN: It's fun.
