Tried our hand at making deep dish pizza for new years. Turned out quite good but I’m no expert so I can’t say how accurate it was. I am told the toppings are supposed to all go under the sauce but I couldn’t resist putting some pepperoni on top

      What’s up squib-fellow :) We did sprinkle the cheap parmesan on top. We bought some real grated parm but it stayed in fridge too long and went mouldy

    I was about to get really fucking angry about why there are cucumbers slices on a pizza and then I remembered I need to put on my glasses.

    No judgement but here in the UK this is more like what we’d call a flan than a pizza or a pie. So instead of arguing about pizzas and pies, why not embrace a third category?

    My mother is from Long Island, so I was raised to abhor anything that was not New York style pizza. Then my wife asked me to take her out for Chicago style pizza. I now make Chicago style far more than anything else.

    Did you do yours in cast iron?

      New York style is great, but it’s often floppy… it it? Idk. I lived in Connecticut and was amazed at the gas/wood slate ovens and how they’d make a medium-thin pizza that was super crispy from edge to center. Chicago style is a whole other thing, though! Plus don’t leave out Detroit!
      In MN they make the weirdest “cracker crust” pizza which they cut into squares, even when the pizza is round. It’s… okay.

      The one in the picture was done in a springform pan but we also did one in a cast iron pan at the same time. They both came out exactly the same except for how vertical the walls were. Also the springform pan leaked some oil so the oven got all smokey. Would definitely recommend putting the springform pan in a baking tray, we just didn’t have room to do that with the other pan in there.

    The only wrong place for pepperoni is unused, and put back in the fridge.

    Thanks for doing your part to stand up against pizza gate-keeping!

    Absofuckinglutely no pun intended.
