Well, I did the work for you (you're welcome). I tasted the top-rated store-bought frozen pizzas. Here are the 10 I tried ranked in order. Keep scrolling for your new frozen pizza hero!

Chalk one up for Detroit-style pizza right out of the gate. Motor City Pizza is a real winner, with its thick, rectangular crust and deep dish canvas ready for any kind of toppings you can imagine. Choose from pepperoni, cheese, supreme and all the other trusty topping standbys. With options like "Three Meat" and "Ultimate Meat," or "Supreme" and "Ultimate Supreme," Motor City proves it's not here to play. Give the people options and a Detroit-size amount of flavor, and they will come. Find it at Wal-Mart, Costco, Target, Kroger and other big-box food retailers.

Step up to the plate — literally — and enjoy this winner, winner pizza dinner. While there are, in fact, Home Run Inn restaurants, you needn't live near one in order to enjoy this perennial favorite pizza. The signature-style crust, described as "tavern-style buttery and flaky," most midwesterners will agree this is a worthy top 10 contender in the frozen pizza space. There's nothing over-the-top in the way of flavor options. Look for standards like pepperoni, sausage, veggie and the like, but big bonus points for the brand for providing an "inspiration" section of delicious toppers to garnish your pie. A real dinger, I tell ya.

You may remember the commercials from back in the day: "It's not delivery. It's DiGiorno." That is the key indicator of what you can expect from this fan favorite. DiGiorno also leads the pack in terms of options … SO. Many. Options. Rising crust (pictured), stuffed crust, hand-tossed, thin crust, gluten-free, Detroit-style, classic … and those are just the crust options, which some people will argue is the most important part of the pizza. Regardless, the Pizzeria Thin Hand-Tossed Margherita pizza is a lighter alternative and features a thin stone-baked crust and is topped with Roma tomatoes, basil and four types of cheese. SO good!

You don't have to be the president of the Paul Newman Fan Club to appreciate his complete line of products and the philanthropic bent of the brand. But you do have to have amazing taste in frozen pizza to appreciate the beauty of the Newman's Own Thin & Crispy Sausage & Pepperoni (Supreme being a VERY close second). Its thin crust is crispy yet understated at once. Piled high with Italian sausage and uncured pepperoni, this one is a real stand-out in the freezer section.

Some folks will fondly remember the classic Tombstone cheese pizza from their childhood. This pizza definitely conjures nostalgic feelings when you pop one in the oven. With plenty of cheese on a crust of the perfect width, you simply cannot go wrong with this pizza.

I realize these may be fightin' words, but Totino's is the pizza soundtrack of my youth. While I can no longer get my absolute favorite flavor — Mexican — at my local grocer, I still enjoy the supreme and triple cheese all the same. It's a standout in the frozen pizza space, and it has staying power for a reason. Because it's THAT good.

Red Baron Brick Oven Pepperoni is a pretty standard but nonetheless stellar frozen pizza brand, and it's available at a very affordable price point. The crust is the perfect thickness, and there is just the right amount of cheese and pepp.

Alright, when you want delivery-caliber pizza cooked on the fly in the comfort of home and for a slightly less than delivery, the Screamin' Sicilian Supremus Maximus is the only way to go. There is absolutely NO skimping on toppings. In fact, there is SUCH a bounty of meats and veggies atop a thick bed of cheese that they drop off onto your plate, leaving you with a great last bite as you scoop them up.
