As a native New Yorker, those cheese slices are so good. Rule number with pizza in NY is never, ever use a folk and knife. Doing so will tell every New Yorker that you are not from NY. Now these people learning why so many NY style pizzerias exist through out the US. Folding the pizza keeps all the toppings on the pizza. Every time I return to NY I have pizza almost every day.

You two did something I never do, eat pizza with no meat on it. I have never had a piece of pizza in my life with no meat on it, and I am 64 years old, so that is a long time. My favorite pizza is, you guessed it, the meat lovers pizza. My favorite pizza is at FireHouse Pizza & Pub in East Peoria Illinois. They make a thin crust meat lovers pizza that is to die for, and it is only $19.99 for a 14 inch pizza. They even have a warning on the menu and the box about that pizza, it says warning addictive, and they are right. I am addicted to it so much I have to get one at least once a week.

We need to head back to try the Tavern style!

One of the main reasons why NY pizza tastes different than every other place is due to the water. There's another YT video from the Food Theorists that tested it out (with water from various areas) and the NY one did infact come out different (ie better). It has one of the "softest" water in the country (which positively affects the gluten in the dough for pizzas and bagels making them softer and stickier as opposed to tougher). So even if a New York pizza maker moved across the country and opened a NY style pizzeria, it still will taste ever so slightly different because the local water is different.

I have a suggestion. Check out Long Island pizza. It's New York pizza but qualitatively better. I recommend you go to Deer Park Avenue in Suffolk County. Start from the Babylon end of Deer Park Avenue and try one slice from each pizzeria on that stretch of avenue (there are about 8 to 10 pizzerias including an Italian delicatessen). My daughter and I do that once per year and rate each slice - she likes Piazziaola and I like D'Lisa. While you do that, stop at Uncle Guiseppe's in North Babylon (it's and Italian American market). This is also the shopping plaza where Piazziola is located. When you are done with the stretch of Deer Park Avenue, get on the Southern State Pkwy, head east, get on Robert Moses Causeway, and head to the beach. Go to Robert Moses beach and chill out at Field 5. It's a fantastic beach. I refer to it as the poor man's Hamptons.

@@mikeymutual5489 I am from LI too and do not agree. You might be able to make a point about, say, boroughs not named Manhattan have equally good pizza but that's about it. And while LI is, as you say, "middle of nowhere", we have beaches far better than anything offered by NYC (and I am deliberately excluding Jones). Furthermore, the seafood. Sure, there is City Island but it pales in comparison to what is on the Island. And then there are the delis. And, once again, there's a reason why Long Islanders do not miss those in NYC as they are, at worst, equally good. A compromise I can make with you is Long Beach. You can stay at Allegria (which is on the beach), access, by foot, great delis (e.g. Lido), the best pizza (Gino's), the beach, an awesome boardwalk, and quickly Uber to two of the best seafood restaurants in the NYC metro area (Pete's and Jordan Lobster farm), as well as easily access the LIRR if you need an NYC fix (but why would you?). Maybe you might want to go to midtown for a decent family style Italian restaurant (Tony's Di Napoli) but, once again, why go to Manhattan for that when all of that stuff is on Long Island. There's a reason why Long Islanders seldom go to "The City" after age 27. Any of the culinary delights common to the NYC/ LI area is on the Island, and NYC is a headache. And, once again, when it comes to seafood, pizza, and delis, NYC is, at best, equal to the Island. You should know this since you are from Long Island, correct?

You compared apples to oranges. Your deep Chicago and Detroit pizza's had pepperoni and sausage and the NY was just cheese and/or different toppings. More grease w/ pepperoni/sausage. You can make a frozen pizza great by adding extra pepperoni, cheese, black/green olives, bacon or anything else. $4-7.50/slice when you can make a whole for $10.00. We have 2 great pizza restaurants in Apopka FL, Rosati's, deep dish and Jet's, Detroit. You're looking at over $20.00 for a small/2 maybe 3.

It is always a good idea to stick with a basic cheese slice when comparing pizzas. However, you should always get a slice of pepperoni (NY's favorite topping) as well, so see how well they do that kind of slice. So yes, you would have to get two slices at every stop! Of course, if you are still hungry, you could also try a slice of the square ("Sicilian") pizza to see how they do that as well!

To Me a (Chicagoan) Comparing New York thin crust to Detroit pan or Chicago deep dish is like apples to oranges. So I look at it like this, each is it's own art form. So if you grew up and all you knew was water-color paintings, the first time you saw something painted in oil, you'd be surprised maybe think the paint was too thick or the colors too rich. Likewise could be said if that scenario was reversed. So good pizza is a celebration to the art form of pizza. Pizza is an American thing. Yah they do it in Italy now, but did they before immigrants came to America? Or did this art form return from America?

The coal fired ovens are providing a crispier more tender pizza because they’re cooking at a higher temperature than the gas fired ovens are. Still hotter, are the wood fired ovens , when you try Vera Pizza Napolitano, it will be crispier and more tender because of the higher temperature than coal. Then as you decrease in temp you get thicker and crunchier/ chewier till you wind up back at Chicago .

As opposed to Chicago and Detroit-style pizza, NY pizza is more about simplicity. The best NY pizza combines an amazing bread crust with just enough fresh sauce and cheese so everything works in harmony. It could be considered "street food." which hearkens back to its food ancestor in Italy (with some New World changes). In fact, thin crust pizza (like NY pizza), is the only type of pizza in the U.S. that is directly related to the original dish in Italy (which you can also get in NY).

There must be good Pizza in Texas as well though? where is you favorite pizza from?

I 1:21 , the Pizzaiolo am back here to educate. The reason the pizza was dry on the bottom... not greasy... for a few reasons 1) pan is very flat. Not nearly the oil put on the pan prior to laying out the dough 2) New York Style pizza is made with All purpose flour. (most popular brand... Trump's All-Purpose) lots of bromate that allows the stretch to occur. with less hydration, there is no need to put in olive oil. Let it self-rise and as long as the dough is covered, not much oil is added as the dough builds up gluten 3) NY style... you'll notice a little gray outer band... that is due to malt....to prevent it from tasting like a cracker...a quick drizzle of oil is added before and even after the pie is cooked... if it isn't added...then you have a very dry pizza crust 4) Extra oily ingredients such as pepperoni, sausage or ground beef on a very thin crusted pizza will exhibit the grease 5) cheese that is already shredded in the package comes with an "anti-caking agent" ...which is (believe it or not)a plastic...that causes a grease pool upon melting. Hope I helped😉👍

We appreciate your detailed explanation on why pizza crust can turn out dry. Thanks for sharing the knowledge with everyone and it is invaluable! Thank you!

I know on my adventures nyc pizza is the best we offer in the usa if what i have tried. But ill be curious what one pizza joint was your favorite. Detroit style is a dark horse for some folks as best though.

Where should we have tried? Might need an excuse to revisit😉

NY pizza is easily the most famous of the styles you tried but New Haven, Connecticut pizza is the country's secret best pizza. The reason it's not as recognized or popular as NYC, Chicago or Detroit pizza is because New Haven isn't nearly the tourism destination that the others are but their pizza is hands down the best. On a scale of 1-10 it's nearly impossible for Detroit or Chicago style to get above an 8, NYC pizza can get into the low 8's but a good New Haven slice is in the mid 9s.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on New Haven pizza. It's great to learn about lesser-known gems in the pizza scene. We actually had a hotel booked in New Havenduring this trip, but our flights were delayed and it then didn't make sense to rush there for a few hours. We will definitely head there in the future.

Of course the pizza with pepperoni and herbs was the most expensive and the best tasting. I wouldn’t expect anything different. Toppings are always extra $ and tastes better than just a plain cheese pizza.

Totally get what you mean! Toppings make all the difference in a pizza. Thanks for watching

"fancy" is one of the quality grades used for many canned foods - usually guarantees all are of the same variety (no mixing of different types of tomatoes in the same can, for example), of the same degree of ripeness and minimum bruising, etc. In the US, the USDA (the federal regulator) stopped using this term and now uses "Grade A" ... but fancy is a mark of quality in canned product Looks like it was a beautiful day to eat pizza outdoors in New York! I do tend to think of NY style as flaccid, but I know New Yorkers love it and I wouldn't turn down a slice for four bucks on a sunny day in June 😋😋😋

Full disclosure, I'm from NY. I've traveled the world and had pizza from different parts. Nothing compares to NY pizza. There are good places to get a pie... nothing like NY.

Thanks for sharing your love for NY pizza! It truly is something special. Where is your favorite Slice from?

I don't think you folks had any coal-fired oven pizza. The vast majority of NY pizzerias are gas-fired deck ovens. Lombardi's, Totonno's, Grimaldi's, Johns on Bleecker, and Patsy's are a few of the old-school, coal-fired pizzerias in the city. Hope you're able to travel an hour or so north, to New Haven, Connecticut. Those that know their pizza consider it the best in the country. BTW, love your reviews, just subscribed.

I'm glad you tried all these different places but, the comparison is invalid since you didn't have the same thing at all of them. Nicola, sweet and delicate. Yeah, that's the first thing that comes to my mind, lol.

I always try new places as plain....it allows Me to see how good the main parts of the pizza actually are without masking it with toppings...crust, sauce and cheese...after that I typically enjoy sausage and mushrooms...sometimes onions...lol...another good place since you are not to far is Pepe Pizza up in Connecticut...though I would tell you to hit Louis Lunch in New Haven and get the ORIGINAL hamburger...or...Nardellis for an Italian sandwich...just saying...

As a Californian I am a neutral party. I've had both Chicago and NYC pizza several times and NYC always wins hands down. Chicago style is nice too but I feel like it's a "commitment" compared to a New York slice.

@@thebritstry No pizza in the world tastes like NYC Pizza. Its the water. Don't forget Jackson Hole Burgers in Manhattan and Queens; try the Eastsider. And Cuchifritos is a Puerto Rican spot in Spanish Harlem. It's a hole-in-the-wall, but the food is great. If you ever venture to Jersey, hit up Harold's Deli in Edison.

New Haven Connecticut, hands down. Sally's, Modern and Pepe's and other joints in the area are as good as it gets imo. New Jersey's got some great pizza as well.

Don't forget Zuppardi's. And NJ pizza is delicious. I think it's way better than NY pizza.

Best pizza is made fast and hot so the crust is crispy and the toppings are just melted and not baked.
