New York Pizza vs. Chicago Pizza

[fro daddy]

I like both. But i will say that when your in the mood, there is not much better than a piled high deep dish.

I'm a Chicago fan.

I like both but voted for.......NY.

NY. Why? Because it's called pizza pie, not pizza cake.

If you want a pie then you should have voted for Chicago style. Chicago pizza most resembles a true pie, while New York pizza resembles a crepe.

Chicago {I can't call it pizza} whatever is a culinary abortion. They cant even put it in the right sequence. New York style IS pizza, it's been that way since pizza was developed.

I may not be a chef, but I can make a Chicago-style pizza that'll change your mind, I guarantee. I'll post the recipe in the recipe forum.

My friend I have tried all sorts of Chicago's so called pizza, it's just not for me. I like my crust cracker thin, my sauce with fresh garlic and herbs, and whole milk and Buffalo mozzarella cheese, and some sliced up meatballs and onions. IMO you can't have a better pie than that.

Well, you're gonna like what you like, and there's no changing your mind I guess. I absolutely love that recipe I just posted. In fact, I just finished off the last of the leftovers for lunch. Très fantastique!

I voted for New York, but like someone else said, the thinner and crunchier the crust, the better. I'm not much of a bread guy as it is

Got one of my favorite slices today. It is called Contadini. It has a light layer of tomato sauce, fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese, very thin sliced potatoes, prosciutto, and a mix of fresh herbs. It is out of this world.

 

 

I love New York.

[knapplc]

Chicago-style, no question. I just made some utterly fantastic deep-dish pizza Friday night. Best pizza ever. Seriously.

 

I suppose I misspoke here. I prefer Chicago style of the two, but the reality is that I like both. I grill a mean New York style pizza, too. So it's not like I just do one or the other.

 

I'm an equal opportunity pizza lover.

Perhaps knowing that Chicago style deep dish *pizza was invented by a FORMER TEXAS FOOTBALL PLAYER will change you naysayer's minds?

Modern Pizza was invented in Naples in the 1700s. Deep Dish pizza was invented by Rudy Malnati.

NY is second only to Big Fred's.
