I'm sitting in a Pizza Hut for the first time in 15 years because my daughter had a certificate from Book It program.

There's a Zagat rated coal fired pizza place like 5 miles away. Best pie I've ever had. And I'm stuck in ####### Pizza Hut.

 
What is St. Louis style pizza?
Here

Very similar to what we get in Minnesota, and it really is the best.
It's like the Rams of the pizza world
I was looking for a pic of some of my favorite places but most don't have website and the one that does, doesn't have any pics. Flaky, crispy, crust. Oh baby.
#######it I would kill someone I didn't know to have more of this than I could eat right now ...

Best St. Louis style in Dayton, Ohio (though are there are a couple of others that are damn close)

Marion's http://thepizzafan.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Marions-Piazza-in-Mason-OH_Sausage-and-Pepperoni-Pizza.jpg

Crust is thin, crisp but has a good "chew' - not cracker like. Just the right amount of sauce and toppings (plenty, but not too much so its as much about the crust). The ground sausage is a big plus as well. Really, really miss this stuff.

 
St. Louis style is the best. I'm not talking the IMO's crap either.
I have never heard of it. I bet it's good thought. What is the style? Oklahoma pizza is crust on the bottom, then sauce, then cheese and on top you can put meat or non meat toppings. It is excellent.
First it's rectangular instead of round and cut into squares. At the good places the crust on the outside is kind puffy and crunchy but everything under the toppings is chewy. My favorite place uses pepperoni the diameter of a nickel and the whole thing is blanketed. Fresh homemade Italian sausage & sauce too of course. They use mozzarella and always top it with Romano too. A lot of people equate STL style with Provel cheese but that isn't accurate. Sucks because it's by my old house so quite far away. It's expensive, like $18 for a 2 topping large, but I'm telling you it's heaven.

I have to get some soon, I'll try to remember to take a pic.

Somebody posted this pic of a pretty good place on FB yesterday. The sauce usually goes further to the edges but you can see making an actual pizza wasn't the end game.

That's also what they do in Buffalo - tons of tiny pepperoni and each one curled up, a little crispy on the edges and a slight pool of pepperoni oil in the middle.

That looks really good.

We have one about 5 miles from the house. Never had their pizza though.

This is a couple of miles from the house and according to some radio guy that grew up and lived in Chicago, it's really close to the best back home. I'll get it every once in awhile. I like to mix it up. My boys like their NY style.

Yes! It's blanketed on too. You don't see much cheese.

I really wanted BBQ chicken pizza for dinner tonight but my brain got confused and I ####### ordered buffalo chicken pizza instead. It was like four hours ago and I'm still pissed off about it.

Different Donatelli's. There's only one (and it was on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and the featured the pizza).

I would love to try Ami's. We'll have to go there some time when we come visit.

Of course. There's a futon on in the hearth room. It's comfortable, I've slept on it many times. You could also have the extra bedroom. Cal rents it out for $1 a night. Pretty good deal IMO.

Because if it was cut into normal slices they'd be 12,000 calories each and Midwesterners would be even bigger tubs than they already are?

Pizza here blows. The only people in MN who like MN pizza are the rubes who have barely ventured out of their own zipcode.They cut the ####### pizza into squares. ####### squares. So dumb
