With 3 years of experience and 18 existing locations Abo's quality is well-known throughout the Colorado front range. We serve only hand tossed Neapolitan New York pizza. The ingredients used in every Abo's Pizza today maintains the original quality ingredients of the first pie to hit Boulder in 1977: The crustthe dough is made fresh daily and hand tossed according to the authentic Neapolitan New York tradition. The crust is classically thin. Its texture is bumpy, bubbly, pliable and crimped yielding a great taste and firm fold over. The dough is flour dusted and baked in the Vermont Bakers Pride ovens. The saucethe Abo's Pizza Sauce is a proprietary blend fashioned after the legendary Rocky Graziano family sauce recipe. The sauce is herby, light, and sweet, but not too sweet with a hint of tartness. The sauce does not detract from the toppings. The cheeseonly 2% skim milk 1% mozzarella is used in generous quantities. Skim mozzarella yields a moist and chewy consistency without the oil-slick effect. Abo's cheese won't slide off the crustwith the rest of the toppings!
