Welcome back to another exciting episode of The Brits Try! This time, Andrew and Nicola, your favorite British expats living in the USA, are taking on the legendary Chicago deep dish pizza. Join us as we dive into the heart of Chicago’s most iconic pizza establishments and ask the burning question: Is this the best pizza in America?
Pizzeria Uno: www.unos.com/
Pizzeria Uno is where it all began. Established in 1943 by Ike Sewell, this pizzeria introduced the world to deep-dish pizza. The buttery crust, rich tomato sauce, and generous cheese make it a must-visit for any pizza lover.
After trying deep-dish pizzas from Pizzeria Uno, Lou Malnati’s, and Pequod’s, Andrew and Nicola are ready to share their thoughts. How does Chicago’s deep dish pizza compare to other pizzas they’ve tried across America?
Lou Malnati's Pizzeria: www.loumalnatis.com/about
Lou Malnati’s is a family-run pizzeria with a rich history dating back to 1971. Known for their perfectly balanced deep-dish pizzas, Lou Malnati’s offers a cozy and welcoming dining experience. Their pizzas are a testament to Lou Malnati’s dedication to quality and flavor.
Pequod’s Pizza: pequodspizza.com/chicago/
Pequod’s is famous for its pan-style deep-dish pizza with a caramelized crust. Founded by Burt Katz in 1970, Pequod’s has been serving up unique and delicious pizzas for over 40 years. Their Lincoln Park location is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike.
Andrew and Nicola have traveled across the USA, sampling various iconic American foods, from massive Tomahawk steaks to authentic Texas BBQ. But today, they're on a mission to explore the deep-dish pizza culture of Chicago, known for its thick, hearty crusts and layers of cheesy goodness. Will the Windy City's famous deep dish pizza live up to its reputation? Watch as we embark on this delicious adventure!

    I think the debate has value as a fun, friendly rivalry between cities. As long as it's all in good fun, and no one's takin it too seriously, it's just a fun cultural thing for people to engage with. You end up with videos like this series, where people actually go and taste test and compare classic pizza places (or burger places, or hot dog places, etc). Of course, taken too seriously, the debate is meaningless. Which type of pizza is best? That depends entirely on the taste of whoever you ask.

    Lived in southern California all my life, and the only actual Detroit-style pizza I've ever experienced was from Little Caesar's. I started making my own and it's so much freakin' better, lol. Especially when the cheese "crown" comes out just right. LC's doesn't even really do the cheese crown, I think they just smash the dough up against the pan near the top to make it thinner and crunchier, but almost no cheese actually runs around the edges.

    I love that you did more of these. Pizza culture in Chicago is best explained by the improv saying "Yes, and." Do we eat deep dish? Yes, and do we eat thin (tavern) crust? Yes, and do we like Detroit style? Yes, and do we do Neopolitan? Yes, and do we have walking slices? Yes, and do we have Pizza Puffs? Yes, and do we have Skillet/Old-Fashioned pizzas? Yes, and... Deep dish is best known outside Chicago, but our thin crust (other places call it 'Tavern') is getting better-known.

    There is no such thing as bad Chicago pizza. Only less good Chicago pizza. :) We're actually known for two different types of pizza - deep dish and tavern style, which is a thin and crispy square-cut pizza. Most locals will tell you that tavern style is the "real" Chicago pizza and that deep dish is for tourists or occasional splurge.

    Being from Chicago, I've only had deep dish pizza a handful of times. That's mostly a special occasion pizza, and for tourists and family that comes from out of town for a visit. Me and my family usually eat thick crust Chicago style pizza cut into squares. That's probably why I like Detroit style as well, and the fact that I have family from Detroit. 😅 The deep dish is cooked with the sauce on top because of the extended time it has to cook because of the thickness, they don't want the cheese to burn.

    The ingredients need to be layered the in a certain way: Copious amounts of cheese is always the bottom layer to form a water-tight seal and prevent the crust from getting soggy. The most common topping, Italian sausage, is usually applied raw because the pie needs to cook for a long period anyways and precooked sausage can become overcooked. The sauce needs to go on top, again because any other ingredient would scorch cooking for that long. Though the logic is kinda circular, the pizza needs to cook for so much longer than thinner pizzas entirely because it's so thick.

    I’m a Lou’s guy myself but I love the burnt crust from pequads. Next time you’re in town try to get the tavern style thin crust. That’s what most of Chicagoan’s eat when they go out for pizza. Deep dish is for when family comes in for a visit.

    You have to go back to Chicago and try the tavern style/thin crust pizza. I’m originally from there and I would recommend (cheese, sausage and maybe pepperoni) in no particular order: Aurelio’s, Vito & Nick’s, and maybe Home Run Inn or Falco’s. There should be 2 categories of pizza from Chicago: thin/tavern and deep dish. I totally agree with your choice of Lou’s! Everything just tastes so fresh 🍕! I hope y’all get to go back!!!

    You guys made me crazy hungry! The crust stays crispy because it's protected from the other ingredients by that layer of cheese. Lots of people think "deep dish" means a thick, bread-like crust, but, as you found out, no. I think Pizza Hut made bready crust famous when they introduced "pan pizza" and people assume that's what deep dish is. I winced each time you said "lasagna" because New Yorkers like to hate on deep dish, likening it to a lasagna rather than a pizza, but they fold their slices in half, making it a sandwich, not a pizza, so what do they know? JK, ALL pizza is good pizza.

Really good, but yeah, I don't want that much bread. And while it is almost as good is Lou's, it doesn't reheat nearly as well the next day.

    Ahh you would have loved the Pequod's (Pea-Quads) in Morton Grove IL back in the days with the founder, Burt Katz. Check him out. Burt sold Pequod's and opened another pizzeria aptly named Burt's. While Burt has passed away, the current owners studied under Burt and carry on the tradition. You will find other YT videos about Burt Katz. Deep dish pizza at Burt's is the only one Anthony Bourdain liked.

The more typical pizza I've had here is similar to NY style 'tavern pizza' which can be pretty good.

    My favorite over thin crust and deep dish is stuffed pizza. Pretty much deep dish pizza, but on top of the cheese and other “toppings” like sausage is a another (very thin) layer of crust, then the tomato sauce is put on top and baked on. Sooo good! Chicagoans eat thin crust pub/tavern (i.e., cut in squares) pizza the most. Deep dish is more periodic or special occasion pizza. I love Connie’s Pizza the best, but sadly all of the locations except the original were closed. I eat Giordano’s mostly now for deep dish. Somebody probably said this already in the comments. Pequod’s is pronounced “pea-quads” Glad you enjoyed the pizza!
