“Detroit-style pizza was originally baked in rectangular steel trays designed for use as automotive drip pans or to hold small industrial parts in factories.”
I love Detroit style, especially from Jet’s pizza, so when I last went to Detroit I thought I’d try the original Detroit style from Buddy’s Pizza. It was pretty disappointing, so I guess, copycats do improve it sometimes.
Jets is probably one of the best widespread chains out there. If you’re in the area though, Green Lantern in Royal Oak absolutely slaps and is hands-down the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life. Don’t mistake it for the one in Madison, since they only have a “tavern” style.
Detroit Pizza is my favorite pizza style. I love a good New York pizza but the toasty favors and tang of detroit style are my favorite by far. I got the special pan to make it, and Charlie Anderson on YouTube has a fantastic recipe.
Sad thing is though that when I moved to Detroit, I learned that the “representative” pizza chains here are terrible. Jet’s has so much sugar in their sauce it’s literally sickening to even smell their pizza, and Buddy’s is flavorless.
Hell, my favorite pizza place near me is ran by a Chaldean couple. Fuck their pizza is so good.
Dude, seriously, don’t take it too hard. Lemmy is a harsh place where downvotes are given out freely and abundantly. Kbin doesn’t downvote nearly as hard, and downvotes don’t get imported from Lemmy instances. You have a +6 from my point of view.
Just roll with it, and don’t let the haters get you down.
Mmm tell me more about how this pizza is contaminated with motor oil and antifreeze. That’s really making my mouth water.
Edit: Your downvotes have convinced me that thinking of an oil drip pan while eating pizza is appetizing. Detroit, I’m sure your pizza is as good as your football team.

My take was that buddy’s was a let down compared to the hype, but otherwise perfectly fine. They also charged for what the hype led me to expect.
Jets on the other hand gives you just as traditional Detroit style, but the quality advertised, expected, delivered and paid for is entirely uniform.
Buddy’s wants to be “nice” in a way that’s above what you can actually get out of a pizza place without being a “restaurant that can also make pizza”.

The tang is tetanus!
Detroit pizza is pretty good. It’s more or less a hybrid between Chicago and New York that matches the geographic location, same with Buffalo.
I am sure it’s true, but the wiki description sounds gross to me. A crispy and chewy crust does not sound appealing.
Geez everyone be gentle, I’m entitled to my opinions about pizza
Speak for yourself. That sounds delicious.
I would argue “sounds gross to me” is speaking for myself. But what do I know.

I don’t care about downvotes, but your comment explicitly says speak for yourself… hence my reply
focaccia??
Damn, focaccia pizza sounds dangerously good. Like I’d worf down a whole thing and immediately succumb to lethal levels of olive oil and cheese.
Welcome to Sicilian pizza! :) it’s a relative of Detroit style.
You sure are entitled to your opinion. But we’re also entitled to make fun of your dumb opinion
Oh we’re soooo distinctive, ours is square!
And cooked in old automotive drip pans!
They’re not used drip pans, buddy. They were brand new pans made by the UAW because that pizza was thicc.

lol you think they still make it in drip pans?
Or that they used used drip pans?
I don’t know, but I wouldn’t have thought that would have occurred to anyone in the first place.
