Perhaps unsurprisingly, I also really like the Chicago stuffed pizza style.  I've never had the pleasure of eating Giordano's, but there's a local Austin pizza place called Mangia that makes a delicious version of the style.

Yeah, and it really didn't look all that appealing. Cheese looks awesome, but way too much sauce, and on top of the cheese. Looks more like Pizza soup in a bread bowl.
Standard for deep dish is "sauce" above cheese. Not really "pizza sauce" though, it's usually stewed tomatoes.

One problem I have with many of the thin pizzas like NY and Neopolitan, is that they're just dry AF.  I always always ALWAYS order extra sauce on these styles.

That's never an issue with deep dish pizza, which is one of the things I love about the style.

Yeah, Columbus had a lot of good pizza. 

Tommy's 



Joseppi's 



The pizza here sucks. About the best you can do is wood fired.

I think we went to Gattos after the Gopher game there a few years ago. Got a large with all the meat. It was delicious.

I can't swing a cat without seeing some ad for cauliflower pizza. Have you tried that?

As a person who always likes a bread bowl, that sounds mostly fine.

I think part of the appeal for me is I get it like very once in a blue moon. Unless I'm in Chicago or get it from one very good place at home, I don't think I would go for it. The place I get it it at home has an interesting thin crust, very crispy, cornmeal on the bottom of the crust, not hyper thin, cheese a little browned on the top. Highly good.

One other thing I've not figured out, when I go back to Ca. I've yet to find a BBQ place I'm excited about. And I've had two great briskets in NY, so why can't Oakland get some lost Texan or Southerner who can do that worth a crap?

Again, I'd have to go rewatch the debate, and I'd sooner inject disinfectant.

I do find it strange that most of the attacks I hear on Biden seem to be projections of Trump:




I'm not excited for Biden by any means, but it seems weird that all the things Trump supporters attack him for are things Trump is an order of magnitude worse.
I said the same thing about 20 pages back.

Yes. They sell a decent one at Costco and we keep it in the rotation. It's not quite the same, and of course we plan our menu in advance so tonight was already teriyaki salmon and sweet chili sauce Brussels sprouts. So I couldn't quite do pizza anyway.

Even if I kinda dislike teriyaki, that's a good combo. Probably flavorful enough it could almost carry me through a low-carb life.

Speaking of Costco, those chickens they sell for $5 are insane.

Uno's is the only "Chicago style" pizza I've tried, and it was horrid.

I tried it twice in fact, once in an airport food court, and again out of a Casino Bowling Ally's food stand.

So each was probably the worst version of Uno's imaginable; and Uno's is of course the Sbarro's of Chicago style pizza in the first place.
Chicagoans don't go to Uno's.
