    I use a fork/knife for the first half. The ones I ate were a bit too heavy to comfortably hold the whole thing without losing toppings. Also, by the time I ate half a slice, the cheese is at that just right gooeyness to stretch a bit still, but not enough to have trouble biting through. Fresh, I need the knife to separate a piece off to eat it.

    Yeah, I'd agree. Native Chicagoan here, they're all good but I'd pick either Lou Malnati's or Pequod's. What I didn't know until this video was Malnati's and Gino's recipes are derived from Uno's recipe, I think that's a cool fun fact. Personally though (as a native Chicagoan) I prefer Chicago style thin crust. Thin crispy crust, sharp thin layer of tomato sauce, Italian sausage under the mozzarella top, tavern cut (square grid like our streets). It's easier to share and not as heavy as deep, goes great with beer. It's the thing we order for sports games, "super bowl size, chicago style" is thin crust but like as big as a table.

  • @danielschoen8402
    @danielschoen84023 жыл бұрын

    Lou malnati has the best sausage, both in quantity and flavor; uno is very good and their sheep milk based cheese makes it unique in the best way. Ginos East has quite remarkable tomato sauce though, to the point that I buy it in cans to use as sauce for spaghetti and other dishes that call for it. They are all good and it’s hard to pick the top 1 but unlike other comparisons on here, these all bring something unique to the table and are all impressively different. Chicago deep dish is absolutely undefeated among pizza styles. I can’t recommend it enough. Everything about it. Crust. Cheese. Sauce. And how they traditionally just have sausage as a topping or sometime pepperoni but the best examples are the ones with just the highest quality sausage.

    My dad grew up in Chicago and he says the best deep dish is a small restaurant in Appleton WI. called Stuc's, my family would go there on occasion and now its so nostalgic that nothing will top it, but I don't think its just the nostalgia that makes it great because my boyfriend loves it and just compared it to Lou Malnati's and he said Stuc's is better, he said Lou's just tasted bland compared to the flavor that Stuc's has, so I highly recommend Stuc's to anybody traveling through WI!

    You can ask for a "Sausage Patty" at Lou's. It's one giant sausage layer vs the pieces of sausage. I agree Lou's is the best, but I like to also get Gino's for the cornmeal crust sometimes. Have yet to try Pequod. Giordano's is not on my list of good pizza places. However most of the time Chicagoan's regularly order thin crust. Deep dish is the special occasion pizza.
