Coming from a pizza maker that did a Detroit pizza tour last month (Louis, Buddy, Cloverleaf, Mitch & Trumbull, Niki's, Tania's, Jets, Green Lantern, Pie Sci, prob forgetting another) this is going to be an excellent series. I know Buddy's is kinda the pedestrian pick, but for a same-day dough, I've got to say I was really impressed with the light, crispy/crunchy texture they were able to achieve with minimal greasiness. It's easy to use fat as a crutch with Detroit pies to make sure they have a crispy bottom, but that sometimes makes them too rich and eats heavily. I didn't experience that with Buddy's unlike I did with a couple others. Can't wait to see the rest!

I managed a Buddy’s back in the 90’s. Back then the sauce was not cooked and the brick cheese was ground to pea size chunks. The old timers always told me grinding the cheese made a difference in the melt. Not sure how true that is but it is how it was always done.

Hey Charlie, love the depth of your pizza videos. One suggestion: use steel pans instead of the aluminum Lloyd pans. It’s what all the Detroit style pizzerias use, and steel holds and transfers heat better so you get better browning. It’s more work to clean/take care of, but my results were noticeably better
@CharlieAndersonCooking

Pepperoni on top. Also. You need to tackle BBQ pizza. And ever controversial, "combo." A classic combination pizza is amazing, Pepperoni, mushroom (chopped), green bell pepper (chopped), Onion (but they need to be water soaked, usually chopped also), Sausage (usually kinda spicy version), Black olives(some people do not like this on a combo, but it is classic). And some places will add salami. One of my all time favorite combo pizza is Round Table Pizza, the King Arthur Supreme combo.

I would like advice from anyone here. I like to parbake my DSP; I get more crispiness out of it. However, the dough shrinks too much, creating a gap where the cheese falls and makes a puddle of cheese that does not crisp up or is too thick. I tried parbaking it with a small edge of cheese to try to attach the dough to the pan, but the dough still shrinks. The next thing to try is to lower the baking temperature and the baking time. I parbaked it at 500°F for 10 minutes; I'll try 450°F for 8 or 6 minutes.

I actually did take measurements of all of the pizzas haha, although I didn’t talk about it in this video.

I don’t think those differences were necessarily caused by using different amounts of dough though. I think it’s more to do with the hydration and proofing process. In Loui’s case, I think the dough was just weighed down by the sheer amount of cheese and sauce.

Detroit style PROVES that Chicago deep dish IS pizza and not a casserole. Both are crust, cheese, toppings and sauce on top. But detroit style has a very thick crust. Chcicago deep isn't thick, it's not pan. It's basically a crust that is pulled up the sides. Detroit and Chicago are both pizza, not casseroles. Detroit style is the easiest to replicate and get 100% right from home. Good stuff. I lived outside Chicago for 30 years. Chicago thin is my fav by far. But I love most all styles. Variety is the spice of life. I can't get brick cheese in Nashville. I do a blend of sharp white cheddar, full fat mozz and unsmoked provolone. It works well.
