This and the dogs are my favorite parts of Chicago!
Would this be considered a pie? A tomato pie perhaps.
It’s a pizza pie
All of this arguing about if it is a pizza, yet the simple truth that it is a salad escapes everyone.
You’re a mad man, and your food classification theories are overwrought AND lead to bad conclusions!
A salad?! Clearly a deep-dish pizza is a form of quiche!
You are a true scholar of food theory I see.
But alas, you fool, should you thoroughly inspect the manuscripts (specifically Appendix C), you would see that salad theory firmly debunks cuberule for the farce that it is!
While admittedly mashed potatoes and rice are miscategorized and switched from where they should be, the cube rule is a parsimonious and more accurate model! The footnote misrepresents it as location of carbs, when it is clearly stated as the location of structural starch. When reading it in this manner it is much more clear than any soup-based hyperspace nonsense!
Gentlemen, gentlemen! There’s no need to fight!
However, if you would continue, I would be greatly amused.
NOTE: No offense intended with the “gentlemen” line if either of you is not male–I’m just trying to preserve the spirit of this Victorian era-style psuedoscientific slap fight.
But even so your precious cubic musing doth fall flat when you consider your deep dish quiche permutates quickly into toast the moment it is cut.
Not to mention one might argue it misses the classification entirely, for a slice of deep dish pizza clearly is endowed with two structural carb sides. And should such a classification exist, it would permutate once more should it be eaten outside first.
While the manuscript of elegant salads stays much more robust to perturbations, a deep dish pizza remains firmly a salad untill the last bite.
Is a pinwheel the same as a burrito? Of course not! Is a pepperoni roll a calzone?! Never! Structure matters! If it didn’t, why would you be able to order a personal pan pizza or a slice?! Clearly, they are different!
By your logic, I could pick out all of the greens from my salad bowl, hand you a bowl of croutons, and have given you a salad. Preposterous!
Pay no attention to Chicago, we purposely trained them wrong… as a joke.
A yes the only “pizza” you need to worry about drowning in if you ever pass out drunk while eating it
Yes but what a delicious way to drown
You’re a sadist for not showing us the cross section
The sauce covered a lot of it.
It looks delicious af and I’d smash, but why is it called pizza?
MFers are out there calling hotdog’s sandwiches and you gotta start this?
Saying deep dish isn’t pizza is their personality.
Delicious, delicious casserole
Sandwich, per the canonical diagram.

It’s it bad that I knew what this was before I clicked it?
Soup bread bowl
It looks like a bowl of marinara. 2/10.
For those who are unfamiliar with Chicago deep dish, the crust is thick, and the cheese and topping ingredients are underneath the sauce. That layer of sauce on the top is very thin.
Looks delicious, I’m assuming is a fork and knife in restaurant pizza rather than take away and eat with friends in the couch.
This is like seeing an iceberg and not realizing everything that was happening below.
Ok as an italian you got my interest; it kind of reminds me of a pizza ripiena without the top layer of dough
Wow, never knew it had so many layers ;D
thats really dependent on the place but it is a true pizza pie.
Sadly in my area there is no place that sells pizzas like it.
Hey there. I’m getting reports about you being uncivil. Please refrain from such behavior in the future and remain respectful to others in this community. The next report gets you banned.
all the locals i know prefer chicago’s other pizza, tavern-style thin and crispy. they might have a deep dish once or twice a year, if that.
I ate more Costco pizza than deep dish when I lived there.
Bro Costco had the best deep dish ever. I still think about that shit. There’s been a hole in my heart for years.
Pretty much just when entertaining people from out-of-town.
Who tf cares so much about semantics? It’s fucking cheese and tomato sauce, idgaf what it’s called, I’m eating it.
Looks like Giordanos, which is fine, but I generally don’t recommend since it’s very saucy and the crust is bleh. Try Lou Malnati’s next time — it’s far superior
Lou Malnati’s crust was so yeasty and unpleasant, and super skimpy on cheese when I had it. Extremely not worth the hype.
Sure, but Lou Malnati’s skimps on the cheese.
It’s not Chicago unless you choke on the cheese.
Is this is a real conversation or is this all gay code
Whatever it is it’s not pizza.
With that much filling, doesn’t the base get soggy? Can you leat a slice like a normal pizza? Ie: held by the crust
deleted by creator
No, it’s cheese on the bottom then meat then more cheese then sauce. It held up pretty good but not nearly as well as a normal slice of pizza. Think more like a sturdy pie crust in how strong it is.
Illuminati’s? That stuff makes me physically ill.
I don’t think that’s where we were, I forget the name. Why does it make you sick?
No idea. I was told it was the “world’s best pizza”. They had it shipped frozen to where I live and we cooked them and they were gross. My stomach and a few other people’s did not like them.
So much sauce! Is this normal? When I try Chicago style at home, having never visited, it’s like quarter that
Yes it’s normal, but it’s not that much sauce. The sauce is on top, and the cheese and meat are below. What you’re seeing is only the top layer of sauce, hiding the deliciously gooey and savoury layers below.
Cheese below sauce sounds like an unnecessary mess.
I mean, you’re supposed to eat it with a fork, not with your fingers.
Unless you’re into that. You do you.
That defeats the entire purpose of pizza.
Better bring wet wipes to all the dudes with facial hair.
