    I guess from my area ( Metro Detroit ) we favor the thin crust type.

    Born and raised in Metro Detroit and pizza has always been rectangular and thick. Positioning of toppings and sauce is debatable. Thin crust pizza comes from Pizza Hut, not Detroit.



    OP, your pizza looks EPIC and I'm putting the recipe in my box for future use. I've never had a Chicago style pizza but I've always wanted to try one.

    x2. Detroit has it's own "style," which is thick and square, generally with a crispier crust than other pizzas. Thin crust pizza is more California style, or traditional Neapolitan style (depending on how it's prepared/what's on it).

    If you're still in metro-Detroit looking for a good Chicago style, Lona's in Dearborn Heights is the closest I've been able to find to more authentic Chicago style (better than Pizza House, Pizza Papalis or Old Chicago).
