Chicago Town Pizza

[WhiskeyMan]

How do you people rate it?

I’ve just had a pepperoni pizza for my tea and i gave it an 8/10.
Stuffed crust with loaded pepperoni.
£3 as well. Bargain in my opinion. Loads better than Asda’s finest.

 

[BoroPhil]

no.

Asda's make your own pizzas are miles better. £6 for 2 + a bottle of Sprite. Can't fall off.

 

[NoloBoro]

It’s not a pizza. It’s mass produced garbage. I wouldn’t bother, sooner have cheese on toast.

Any stuffed crust pizza claiming to be from Chicago would be drummed out of town!

Hope the cheese isn’t mass produced garbage tho! And the bread is home made

Presume you’ve built your own toaster too. And generate your own electricity.

Is the crust similar to a pie crust?

Basically yeah. It's like eating a quiche but filled with the most densely packed, tasty pizza flavour you've ever had. Couple of slices and you need a lie down!

They really aren't!

Ah that makes sense as to why I've heard Americans call them 'pizza pies' then.

I think that's just Americans being weird tbh lol. Deep dish is a very localized thing, you can't easily get them outside of Chicago (and Americans are very tribal about their local pizza styles).

Too many decades ago me & a colleague ordered a Pizza Pie from Pizza Hut while on late shift... it was - the best ever - & then it was no more upon their menu.. still decades later the fable of the Pizza Pie, was it just a dream.. sits like a deep pan holy grail of mythic pizza's....

Anywhere in the U.K. doing them

Welcome to Ebor Cibus - an independent pop-up pizzeria, bringing the world famous New York slice to the good people of Yorkshire and beyond.

Closest I’ve found is here in York with Detroit style. Although not too close cuisine wise. Delicious though.
