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
That's a nice looking casserole.
Soup in a bread bowl, but delicious nonetheless.
No canned onion rings on top?
People are gonna cry about it, but I think this looks delicious.
It ain't pizza but it does look very, very delicious.
Definitely looks more like a pie than a pizza. Wonder what an Italian would say.
From personal experience, an Italian would say "wow this is delicious but I can only eat a slice or two"
Traditional Italian pizza is nothing like the food we call pizza now anyway
Yeah I've seen some purist Italians talk about pizza on YouTube. Definitely very different (and more tasty) than the pizza I make at home with my family. 😅 Wish I had a stone oven or even room for one of those small modern ovens, to make good pizza in.
"Look how they massacred my boy..."
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.
I thought it was eggplant but I'd eat it either way. Looks great!
I thought it was blood pudding

too funny not to share
Haven't clicked the link yet but I'm betting it's The Daily Show.
I have returned from my 1,000th lifetime watch of that video to say your instincts are indeed correct.
Where's the cheese? There's no fuckin cheese?
Edit: I knew this was gonna be downvoted. Pro tip, if you downvote this it just proves you're uncultured BECAUSE THE CHEESE IS UNDER THE FUCKING SAUCE
Edit: Your to you're because autocorrect exists
Naw. Downvoted for the improper use of "your" in the edit.
Yeah I'm sorry autocorrect is a thing
Unforgivable!
That's a pie, not a pizza but it's probably very tasty
Pizza pie.
Aren't ordinary "flat" pizzas also sometimes called "pizza pies"? Also seems incorrect.
More like a casserole
Looks great, but the pepperoni should be inside the pie, not on top.
Also, Jon Stewart is wrong in that Daily Show video and doesn't know wtf he's talking about - Chicago deep dish pizza doesn't have cold sauce on it, and he's a moron for suggesting it does.
My guess is that he's too rich to ever go to a restaurant so it's cold by the time he gets it
I actually talked my friends out of ordering deep dish last night for that very reason lol
That looks killer to me. Love a good deep dish pie.
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?
Because it's pizza
You can call anything a pizza if you want. It becomes a useful term if it's commonly understood by your audience.
I thought a flan has fillings that are eggy? I agree that this looks kinda unusual for pizza - although it also looks very tasty.
It's a QUICHE. Quichza? Pronounced like key-tch-zah.
I would say a quiche /ˈkiːʃ/ requires eggs whereas a tart doesn't (necessarily), and I have no idea what a key-tch-zah is, we don't have them in the UK. A quiche is a type of tart though, yes.
Going by primary ingredient I guess it would be like a tomato tart. Though the dough is yeasted so it probably doesn't fully match a lot of categories.
It matches the pizza category, don't let Margherita Berry over there hassle you.
Hey buddy can a pal get the recipe?
Not OP, but here’s one I’ve made that’s pretty close to Due’s/Lou Malnati’s
Nice. We used this recipe https://www.brianlagerstrom.com/recipes/chicago-deep-dish-2 though 10% semolina instead of straight AP flour
Ooh! I’ll have to give that one a shot. Thanks! Sucks being addicted to food you can’t get any other way that’s not “make it yourself”.
That looks like a terrible pizza but a delicious pie
Eewww 😦
At some point it needs to be called a bowl
The only part I don't like about Chicago deep dish pizza is you have to Chicago deep throat it to eat it.
Looks like you nailed it. Yeah, pepperoni on inside and they wont get torched. If you must put toppings on top, maybe put them on at the end and put it under the broiler for a bit? Either way it looks dank. Would chonch on this.
I feel like I’d have to put at least some Parmesan on top.
Also, squib!
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
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.
A bunch of people discussing the semantics of what to call it, while I just want to call it delicious.
Welcome to a little slice of culinary heaven where we share photos of our favorite dishes, from savory succulent sausages to delicious and delectable desserts. Made it yourself? We'd love to hear your recipe!
