This and the dogs are my favorite parts of Chicago!

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.
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
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.
Lou’s sauce is trash. Gio’s is the way to go
Hey, I like Giardano’s lol
Lou Malnati’s crust was so yeasty and unpleasant, and super skimpy on cheese when I had it. Extremely not worth the hype.
Anyone know a good spot in NYC to get one? We got one of the chains in times sq but I’d reckon Chicago people wouldn’t recommend them just like we’d not recommend Sbarro’s.
Every time I see a Chicago Deep Dish, I’m like yo I’d try that as an unique experience.
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.
Pretty much just when entertaining people from out-of-town.
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.
You are correct, tavern style is the way to go.
Eat what you like but please don´t call it a pizza when it´s obviously not.
You guys are worse than the carbonara gatekeepers.
Clearly defined semantics serve the purpose of precise communication. When someone says “pizza”, I want to know what they mean, a pizza or a weird American pie. What is so bad about that?
Yeah it’d be pretty useful if different styles of pizza has different names. Oh well.
Two-wheel style car, or motorcycle? Sir, this is clearly a tomato pie.
Yeah it’d be pretty useful if different things had different names. Oh well.
If this is a pizza then beans on toast is also a pizza.
I love Deep Dish, but yeah it’s more of a pizza-flavored casserole.
It’s a bread bowl with tomato and cheese soup.

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
Pay no attention to Chicago, we purposely trained them wrong… as a joke.
Would this be considered a pie? A tomato pie perhaps.
It’s a pizza pie
Soup bread bowl
Who tf cares so much about semantics? It’s fucking cheese and tomato sauce, idgaf what it’s called, I’m eating it.
Don’t forget to have a proper polish with mustard, onions and sport peppers.
Hell yeah!!!
That doesn’t sound very polishing to me.
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.
I ate at Giordano’s and it was all sauce. Kind of gross it was like soup
It was gross because it was Giordano’s. They are the worst
Delicious, delicious casserole
Sandwich, per the canonical diagram.

It’s it bad that I knew what this was before I clicked it?
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.
