Detroit Style Pizza
« Reply #-1 on: February 29, 2020, 06:38:27 PM »
Hey y'all! Mrs RG here. We recently bought a Loyd's pizza pan and finally decided to use it tonight to make a Detroit style pizza which is a deep dish type pizza. It's a bit different than your usual pizzas. It has the sauce on top of everything. I have to say this thing turned out amazing. You get the crispy edges from the cheese caramelizing. Sooooooo yummy. The dough is King Arthur's recipe. I just winged the sauce.

WOW! Your husband sure is one lucky fella :)

She's right, this thing was all killer, no filler (as Guy Fieri would say). It's hard to tell from the pictures but it has Boar's Head old world pepperoni that we cut thick, Canadian bacon and hot sausage. Stephanie is the Pizza Queen, she's been making pizza since she was a teenager, lol! We actually met at a Dominos Pizza, she was a pizza maker and I was a delivery driver.

We are a pizza eating family! It is probably (definitely) my favorite food!

Killer, that KA flour does make good skin.  I like the Broil King slicer

That was a "throwdown" prize I believe. Works fairly well, I need to sharpen it.

We reheated the leftovers in the oven for lunch today, not a crumb left! Definitely a keeper!

The main difference is the crust. Chicago has an almost biscuit like crust, buttery and also contains cornmeal.

Also the Detroit has cheese applied very thick on the perimeter that, by the time it's done cooking,  makes a caramelized crispy addition and it's awesome!

Thank you everyone! RG is right about the difference in Chicago and Detroit.....the Detroit crust is light and airy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Chicago used to be my favorite but this is now I do believe. I think I posted a Chicago pizza on here before.

Caj, yes it was in the oven.☺️
