NY Style Pizza vs Chicago Pizza (1 Viewer)

[Village Idiot]

Marion's Pizza in Ohio. Been mentioned by several of us that live or used to live in the southern Ohio area. Cassano's Pizza King is very similar, but quite as good these days. Apparently they were voted #2 in the nation independent pizza store owner by Pizza Today magazine. I don't need no stickin' award to know how much I miss this stuff. St. Louis style - crispy/chewy thin crust, unique grind on the sausage makes it unique too. Going home to Ohio for Christmas and my mom will have several of these bad boys waiting on me and the family. Killin' me just looking at it.http://www.flickr.com/photos/masonbuzz/8183539865/in/set-72157632003563132

My wife is from Germantown, Ohio, every time we go back to visit she must have a Cassanos pizza.

I have folded up pizza when it is messy and I have no other option. It doesn't taste as good that way. I think it's because the underside crust is hitting your tastebuds more than the cheese.

Millions of New Yorkers that actually know what the hell they are talking about)

if you want a calzone, order one and stop trying to turn your slice of pizza into one on the street.

Totally different taste profile, not to mention texture.I'll be sure to have a knife and fork ready for you and your pizza when we get a slice after 'Cuse wins the national championship.

 

[Kool-Aid Larry]

BTW, I see the original title is misleading regarding "thin crust"New York style, as noted, is NOT paper thin. Pepe's in CT is paper thin. Some of the "gourmet" and more traditional Euro style pies can be very thin, but NY Pizza is not "paper thin" - it should hold up when you eat it properly, namely fold the slice in half and consume.To that end, Chicago Style isnt "thick crust" really either. The crust itself is not that thick, its just loaded and baked like a thick pie / casserole almost. And then you have Chicago stuffed pizza, a variant (and NY has a stuffed pizza as well, not that dissimilar from Chicago stuffed, each having to layers of crust with the middle packed with stuff)

chicago pizza is def thicker crust than ny, and their pan pizza, which is classic 'chicago style', is a thick crust.there are probably variants, but chicago stuffed typically doesn't have a double crust.think I'll go get a slice right now....

nobody is telling you to use a knife and fork.just eat your slice WITHOUT folding it in half. why is that so difficult?

 

[Rayderr]

pizza isn't meant to be eaten "on the run"

A slice of pizza is certainly an appropriate on the run food.

sure, it can be but that doesn't mean that's the ideal way to eat it.if the pizza is low quality, then just roll it up into a ball and shove it into your mouth. call it pizza if you like but pizza doesn't have crust on both sides, IMO. it's meant to be eaten open face.you can easily eat a pizza "on the run" without folding it like some freak. the only reason to fold it is if you are in a hurry and have no desire to prolong the enjoyable experience of eating a delicious slice of pizza.

I like to start with the crust and work toward the pointy edge.

Pizza hut did a whole ad campaign based on that for their cheese stuffed crust.

this looks appetizing? like I said, folded pizza is a weak version of a calzone. you don't need crust on both sides unless the sauce is a sloppy mess and the toppings are falling off it.

 

[Village Idiot]

Millions of New Yorkers that actually know what the hell they are talking about)

if you want a calzone, order one and stop trying to turn your slice of pizza into one on the street.

When you fold it, you are still getting the same crust to sauce, chesse, toppings ratio as not folding it.You are just eating more of it in one bite.Unless you fold it and cut your bite size in half to compensate.I prefer to not fold and enjoy the taste experience longer.

 

[Kool-Aid Larry]

here's what curlybored has to say on the topic:http://www.naturallycurly.com/curltalk/non-hair-discussion/110069-do-you-fold-your-pizza.html

I think that pretty much sums it up --- ny style is commonly folded by necessity.

 

[Koya]

but chicago stuffed typically doesn't have a double crust.

Obviously, things differ from place to place, but my understanding (from my Chitown Wife) is that stuffed pizza is just that - stuffed between two layers of Crust. (I think Eduardo's does it this way), whereas straight forward Chicago Pizza ("pan pizza") has one layer with everything piled on top (Uno/Deux, Gino's etc)

Why is it so difficult to eat NY Pizza the way NYers eat it? For one, it's less difficult, and the first 1/2 of the slice you are eating non folded because the corner has nothing to fold, then as you get mid way up the slide, you get the fold. Toward the end, up to you if you then unfold for the last few bites, namely an inch or two from the crust.I Don't go telling buffalonians how to eat their wings, let us decide how we are supposed to eat our pizza.

[One]

I love it all, but these are practically like different foods. One is straight crust, light sauce, chese and thin meat. The other is almost like a stewy pie.

IMO..

NY Style is solid, High Floor/Moderate Ceiling.

Chi Style is usually a toss-up, but can be amazing. Low Floor/High Cieling.

I admittedly am not the expert on this one (unlike some in this thread, I'll allow for local folks to provide their understanding of local cuisine, how it's made and how it should be eaten, unlike some others here), but my wife wouldn't even know what a sbarro's is.Secondly, looks like people are talking AWFULLY sure about #### they might not really know (I admit I don't really know, at least re: Chicago Style)

http://www.yelp.com/topic/chicago-stuffed-pizza-vs-deep-dish

that yelp thread has a few folks who have "seen" the second crust (albeit very thin in the case of Giordano's) being applied, and I am almost sure that Eduardo's stuffed has two layers of crust. If this is correct, some folks are going down in flames as knowing nothin' about pizza be it Chi or NY.

So you unfold it after the first bite?

I'm thinking 15%. Maybe 20%

 

[Koya]

FYI, Ignorance confirmed (at least by wiki):

Stuffed pizzas are often even deeper than deep-dish pizzas, but otherwise, it can be hard to see the difference until it is cut into. A stuffed pizza generally has much deeper topping density than any other type of pizza. As with deep-dish pizza, a deep layer of dough forms a bowl in a high-sided pan and the toppings and cheese are added. Then, an additional layer of dough goes on top and is pressed to the sides of the crust.

I think those from non pizza making regions should stick to giving dissertations on subjects that they might know something about. Like the cold and snow.

Usually about half way down the slice.

Yeah but no slice really fully folds. That is pretty much what most people mean when they say folded. When did everyone become a Chriso semantic argument wannabe around here?

I see lots of new yorkers fully fold their slices.Giving it a slight curve isn't a fold, imo. I'm talking one side on top of the other until they touch. That's what I have a problem with.

you should check it out -- it's pretty good, but it's just the same stuffed you see everywhere else.you can google locations, but I'm pretty sure they still have one downtown, and another on north ave in oak park -- the latter actually has a lunch buffet, so you don't have to get a whole pizza.

stuffed pizza is good, but I get maybe once or twice a year at most. Still don't recall seeing a 2nd crust layer on any of the ones I've ordered. It's usually all fillings.
