Chicago style deep dish pizza

Isn’t that a quiche?

R1 Shut your fucking mouth

lou malnatti......they ship everywhere........simply the best.........yum

That is such garbage pizza.

It looks like it was scientifically designed to create more fat people.

Try Jett's Pizza. They are a chain with excellent deep dish pizza.

OP is morbidly obese.

It is so easy to make,

Make a tough pie crust, fill with pound of cheese, put a too sweet tomato sauce on top. Bake for a long time.

All done!

where do you live? I'm personally a big fan of Zachary's in Oakland but it's not a chain

Just pour some Ragu on toast.

Eat a meatball sub--load it with cheese and oregano

get a great recipe from Binging with Babish!

OP, that photo doesn't resemble the pizza I picked up from Pizzeria Uno in Chicago. It was so unexpectedly heavy I almost dropped it and I couldn't eat more than 2 slices. I've never seen anything that resembles what I bought there. Maybe make your own?

They opened a place that specialised in this in London in the late 70s. It was a huge hit and a very big deal and the pizzas were so good and I've never had one since it shut down. It was called The Chicago Pizza Pie Factory.

and they looked like this

I used to live in Chicago and had Giordano’s on speed dial! It’s like a really thick cheese casserole with any toppings you want. It’s very yummy but terrible for you. What city are you in OP?

OP's one of those idiots who doesn't realize this the internet is world wide.

I love Uno pizza. Nothing else matches it for Chicago style. You say it's too expensive? Suck it up, OP -- you gotta pay to play!

I've had Giorgano's in Chicago. After Uno, it was very disappointing.

OP's NUTZ!

I love the Chicago style deep dish, but I am also a BIG casserole lover

R16 You stupid cunt. IF I'm not going to pay $30 for a small deep dish pizza from UNO (local), why am I going to pay 90+ to have it shipped from Chicago or someplace else?

Lou Malnatis has a much better crust than Uno's. But if you are looking for the absolute best deep dish in Chicago, you have to go to Peuqod's. The sauce is mouth-watering.

And wear cha-cha heels.

I think YOU'RE the stupid cunt, actually - who gives a shit about your stupid pizza. You're a nasty little girl.

Portrait of the dear OP.

Make your own.

R24 Look, you useless gormless strumpet. I'm in the mood for deep dish, Chicagoan style pizza pie and unless you can offer an economical, convenient way for me to get it I don't see much point in your commentary.

Where are you in the world OP?

I haven't had it in quite a while but Uno sold their deep dish pizza in grocery stores in the frozen food section and it wasn't anywhere close to even $10 for a large, but their large is anyone else's medium.

R27, based on his friendly replies, hell probably.

That's no pizza.

R23...I see you take your talking points from Trump.

That ain’t a pizza. It may taste good, but don’t call it pizza.

I agree. It's a tomato pie.

That's a casserole with a glandular problem.

I'd like to smash it into OP's nasty face.

[quote]It looks like it was scientifically designed to create more fat people.

Yeah, some science. Take a normal pizza and make it much bigger.

It’s horrid! A pizza should have a thin crust and very few toppings.

I hate the word pie when it follows the word pizza.

You mustn't let the nastiness of OP's personality put you off. They can be very tasty and a more solid meal than the thin ones, when done well.

Just go to Yelp and look for places near you. Why does OP not know how to use the internet?

You only live once OP.

Mangia!

Save yourself - avoid it.

Oh, r37! I'm sad for you, denying yourself the deliciousness . Come over to the dark side and we will tempt you with sensuous delights!

R4 is really Karen Carpenter reincarnated.

Those deep-dish pizzas have a lot of toppings or fillings. Depending on how many servings you get from that pizza, it might be worth $30. Especially if it's restaurant service.

Americans can ruin any food by being disgusting pigs.

I remember enjoying Pizzaria Uno in Central Ohio when I was a college student in the early 90s. Not long ago I tried the pizza at the Uno’s on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and it was disgusting.

Uno's is just like Pizza Hut, a chain for trashy people who have no idea what good pizza is supposed to taste like.

Uno sucks. There’s a place in Los Angeles called Hollywood pies and they are very good

R48 pizza hut was good once upon a time, back in the 80s and 90s. Not as good as real ny pizza, but it was good. The crust used to be delicious and crispy golden as if fried on the outside, soft and tasty inside. The cheese was much better quality than now. People who are too young to remember how pizza hut pizza used to be would be pissed off at how terrible it has become if they could taste the difference. Now, the crust is flavorless bread soft all over, and the flavors they add if you ask are pathetic. Cheap crappy cheese and sauce. It doesn't even taste like it's from the same place. Pizza hut pizza is a shadow of its former self.

[quote]pizza hut was good once upon a time

Yeah, in the same way Wonder bread used to be good, and Maxwell House coffee used to be good --when people didn't know any better.

But, no, it was never really good. It was always trashy Americanized garbage.

R51 Maxwell House is fine a coffee brand you snobbish little cunt.

I remember the Pizza Hut "pan pizza" being good, in the 1990s. I remember the crust being really nicely browned and crispy. No, it wasn't authentic, but I do remember it being very tasty. I always stuck with pepperoni or cheese. I heard that they put oil in the pan before dropping in the dough (hence the crispy, brown crust).

R53 Dominos makes a better one now. Same sort of thing. They really did well on the whole "our Pizza is/was shit and we're sorry" marketing strategy

I haven't had Chicago Deep Dish in years. It's delicious, but it's like consuming an entire log of mozzarella.

Red Barron individual mini deep dish pizzas @ Dollar Tree for a buck. Works for me.

R54, I haven't had Domino's pizza since they changed their formulas. I'll keep that in mind.

[quote] Red Barron individual mini deep dish pizzas @ Dollar Tree for a buck. Works for me.

Yes, those are very good (little bit salty) & remind me of the old Pizza Hut personal pan pizzas.

R51, I was born and raised in NYC, I know good pizza. Pizza hut could never compare to that, but it WAS good once. Alas, no longer.

That’s quite a humorous marketing strategy R54. I wonder if any other companies have used it. I can’t remember one.

R15 Giordano’s just opened a new place here in Vegas.

New York style cheese slices are my favorite, but I thought Giordano's spinach deep dish was pretty damn good. And it was ordered by my cousin who grew up in Chicago, so I trust her taste in the matter.

[quote]UNO pizza and they're charging ***30 DOLLARS** for a small!

My local UNO is charging $10.99-12.99 for a small. ***11 to 13 DOLLARS*** not ***30 DOLLARS***.

UNO is disgusting. Are there once and never again!

There is a chain based out of Atlanta called Blue Moon Pizza. Much pricier than Pizza Hut, Poppa John's on Domino's but very good.

[quote]There is a chain based out of Atlanta

Which means it is [italic]in[/italic] Atlanta, in normal English?

R66 - Blue Moon pizza has retail outlets all over the Southeast with the headquarters IN Atlanta, Georgia.

Are you the Headmistress of The DL English Department?

My husband used to make a great sausage and tomato sauce quiche but then he became vegetarian and wouldn’t give me the recipe.

OP is full of it. The UNO where I live charges $12.99- $27 for a deep dish pizza. First price is for a 7" small, last price is for a 12" large.

Pizza Hut is so much better in London. Regarding "Deep Dish", here in Chicago, Pequod's is better than both Uno's and Lou Malnatti's, as R21 recommends. Second down the list I would argue is Gino's East, followed by Giordano's.

Gino's East makes small (ish) frozen Deep Dish personal pizzas that are really good, and often on sale for $5.99. Depending where you reside OP, perhaps look for one of these.

Lou Malnatti's sausage has always tasted a bit off to me. Better to get Pepperoni or just cheese IMHO.

Aldi's sometimes has the Gino's East frozen deep dish pizza.

R72 Yes, I have seen it, but probably only in Chicago, like many other local items, i.e. Vienna Hot Dogs, Turano French Rolls, Buona Beef, etc. Aldi does this with many popularly local items in several different markets.

Italian beef! Let's talk about Italian beef!

Lou Malnatti's puts butter in the crust - I never could develop a taste for that kind of crust but it's their signature. Also, they sprinkle too much dried basil /oregano / pepper on top. You can ask for it without this but still - I never liked Lou Malnatis deep dish. Thin was fine.

Pequods is ok if you truly like the "Caramelized crust" thing. I think it's too bready.

I forgot what Unos tasted like. It's been a while.

Giordanos is the pizza that can give me an orgasm and put me into a blissful 8 hour sleep shortly thereafter... especially the vegetable stuffed one. Eduardo's was another one in that category.

We had a pizzeria Uno here years ago. I tried it once and was not impressed. It didn't last all that long. We have some really good pizza here but most are thin or medium crust.

I tried frozen Gino's East one. The crust tasted like cardboard.
