In the Willamette Valley, sunny afternoons and mild evenings are ideal for having a meal outdoors, even though no one ever thinks of eating soggy sandwiches wrapped in plastic on their days off. If you’d like some fresh air, good food, and no need to clean up the kitchen, then knowing how to put together the perfect pizza picnic using Odd Moe’s Pizza makes your next trip to the park easy.

Instead of having bagged lunches, a pizza picnic offers you hot and fresh comfort food which is served directly on your picnic blanket. If you’re organising a family game day, spending time with close friends, or arranging a relaxed outdoor date night, the following step-by-step guide will show you how to pack, choose, and successfully put on your perfect outdoor meal.

Step 1: Craft the Perfect Picnic Spread

Good picnics begin with excellent food; Odd Moe’s makes its pizza dough from scratch each day so that you get a golden, light crust with the right crispness which stays intact when eaten outside. It’s easy to put together a varied assortment of foods that goes well beyond pizza.
Choose from popular selections featuring classic pepperoni, barbeque chicken, or fresh garden vegetables on fresh, scratch-made dough. Among the most frequently chosen options are:

• The Grand Salami (All Meat)
• Lineman (Combo)
• The Sweet Spot (Hawaiian)
• Power Forward (Garlic Combo)
• Green Monster (Artichoke Pesto)

Along with your pizza, we also provide appetizers and sides.

• Hearty Pasta Bowls: Add our baked Mac n Cheese, customized with crispy bacon bits, jalapeños, and extra cheese, or else have some savory tortellini pasta bowls.
• Shareable Appetizers: Grab a box of our warm cheezy garlic bread and crispy wings (available in both traditional bone-in and tender boneless options).
• To balance your savory slices, add a crisp, chilled garden salad.

Step 2: Grab the Drinks

Depending on the occasion, you can keep things family-friendly or raise the whole vibe into a romantic evening:

• No pause for drinks: If you order in advance and pick up at the store, you’ll get a free 2-liter soda!
• Enhance the experience with beer, cider, or wine: Odd Moe’s has a wide range of local beer, ciders, and wines. When you’re planning a laid-back date or an adult gathering, grab local Pacific Northwest craft beers, crisp ciders, or regional wine to make your picnic a genuinely wonderful experience.

Step 3: Pack Your Picnic Basket

Keep your outdoor setup simple and relax as soon as you arrive at the park. Throw these quick essentials into your picnic tote before you leave the house:

• For plates and utensils, pack some reusable ones or sturdy disposable ones, along with forks for your pasta bowls and salads, and a sufficient number of napkins or wet wipes for the wings.
• For drink serving, take along paper or plastic cups; if you want to make it more elaborate then use plastic glasses or even genuine wine glasses.
• Don’t forget that blanket. Any will do.
• Bring a trash bag with you, so when you’ve finished, you can pick up to keep our local parks clean and neat.

Step 4: Pick Your Location and Timing

The time you place your order makes a big difference if you want to keep your food warm. Order online for in-store collection right as you leave. Take your hot food straight off the counter, grab your free 2-liter bottle, and drive or walk to your preferred picnic area.

No matter where you decide to go, your hot meal will be ready to enjoy as soon as you sit down.
