I also learned through fellow blogger, Pete, that this was National Pizza week. Which makes sense as we all seem to be into pizza lately. Check out Pete's Spicy Buffalo Chicken Pizza and Marlow's review of Briixx gluten free pizza and marvel that Allie was able to get GF pizza delivered right to her door (so jealous), who says gluten eaters get to have all the fun and good food!
I asked the busy young man at the counter what they did to not mix the pizza up with gluten and his answer was so informed I was immediately put at ease. Adam told me that it's a frozen crust that is removed from it's packaging and placed on a special single use tray then which is put on clean pizza pan. They do not cut the pizza so that there isn't a chance for the cutter to use a glutenous pizza cutter germs on it.
I know some folks at the resort had been told they are using Udi's crust (love, love, love udi's) and topped my pie with peperoni and pineapple. (I also had a theory that if I went with a funny combo then there would be no chance for confusion at the table) The pizza crust was a bit underdone but it was so nice to grab a slice after skiing I overlooked it for the most part. The group had ordered a large "normal" pie as well and after they devoured that some folks even ventured over to my GF pie.

Hey! We are always ordering pineapple pepperoni pizza--not sure why we did the first time, but it's been a fave ever since . . . better than the Hawaiian version with ham, imo. :)
We call it the Con-con special after our friend who introduced us... bet you got the combo from us! It's a quirky combo but good...
The pizza looks delish! Good stuff! Glad to see more and more GF dining options in one of my favorite Colorado mountain towns!
Cheers, Pete
@Pete- I haven't even tried the gf sandwiches up at Gorrono Ranch yet but lots of new options from the resort thanks in large part to your reviews from this summer and Carrie the manager at Allred's who tested a lot of GF products for the F&B outlets at the resort. It's so great to see the attitude towards gluten free dining shift here in town. Hope you're enjoying the epic east coast winter.
THANK YOU so much for the GF blog with restaurant highlights from Telluride. We're headed your way in early March for our first visit and I'm glutarded (and don't ski...yet. My 3 travel companions aren't and do ski). Should be an interesting trip! Your blog will save me from a week of bland, undressed salads.
