So far, I only like Papa John's version of the BBQ Chicken and Bacon pizza. I totally devoured a couple of slices last night..yummm.

You guys should come to Savastano's! It's owned by the Savastano family and I've been working there since April

The deep dish pizzas are HUGE!

It's right on the border between Tulsa and Bixby, Oklahoma

Mack and Mancos in Ocean City NJ...end of discussion.
No corporate pizza can compare...

Damn Good Pies are...damn good (cue rimshot). Seriously though, I've yet to eat anything there I didn't like, although their hand-tossed "The Greek" is my definite favorite. (and they make killer stuffed mushrooms the size of a house)

Re-reading the thread and Casting Pearls' post reminded me of the pizza I'm like, always craving... It's called Senape's and if you live in/around Hazelton, PA you need to go get yourself a box. Now.
(it's mountain pizza...without american cheese. I know, just hear me out on this one)

Dibaby35 · 07-29-2010, 09:22 AM

Bills Pizza in Mundelein IL. Only place that I know of that has double decker pizza and has had it since the 50's.

I know a lot of people don't get the 'different cheese' thing but guys trust me--it DOES work. Some Old Forge style pizza contains a mix of your typical pizza type cheeses with American and cheddar thrown in....some, cheddar or American only--either way--it's all sooooo good.

Hazelton is around an hour from me. (Everything in PA is at least an hour from everything else...) I might try that.....good suggestion!

Mmmmm, yum!!! Shakee's in Tuscon, back
in 1976! Papa John and Papa Murphy's
(take n bake, great value!) are good.

Angelo and Vince's which I believe was outside of Pasadena but it was really late and that neighborhood was incredibly dark. LA neighborhoods are not my thing. It was complete with real mobsters running the show and screaming clearly *questionable* things in nearly unintelligible grammar at guys on the other end of the phone. This was back when a car phone came in a leather bag and still had a cord.

Had a standard crust, red sauce, pepperoni, sausage and mushroom.
and
An olive oil, basil, pizza Margherita that I recall we added something to.

goofy girl · 07-31-2010, 05:27 PM

Lombardi's in NYC. For sure. OMG I want to go get on a train to NYC right now for some. Followed by a (few dozen) Butter Lane Cupcakes. Oh dear me I need to get to the city.

Holy crap. That pizza looks worth a 2 hour drive.

My favorite deep dish is Lou Malnati's in Chicago. Grew up with it and have never found anything remotely close until I found Felix & Oscar's in Des Moines, IA. Damn good pizza.

For thin crust, White Cottage in I *THINK* Itasca or Wood Dale, IL is great. Second is a place called the Tavern in Des Moines, IA. Yum. They make a Bacon Cheeseburger pizza that is TO DIE FOR. Its got cheese, bacon, hamburger and PICKLES. On the pizza! Insanely good.

All of these pictures are killing me. I think we need to arrange a pizza tasting tour of the US. Seriously. Let's buy a bus and go

Don't tempt me, Goofy. I've put together field trips to baseball stadiums in the past, so this isn't out of the question.

Actually, this can be accomplished to a certain extent in metro areas like Philly, Boston, and NY, who offer diverse styles of pizza. It's not as long a trip, but can be done at a lower cost, and in far less time. I know at least a dozen and a half places in Jersey alone that bake their pizza in different ways, and with different doughs, and other ingredients.

Hmmmmmmmm..........perhaps a post NJ bash event?

Your post pulled me out of deep lurk mode! I just had to comment.

I live in South Tulsa and I've had your pizza twice. Pepperoni each time. It's fantastic! Still need to get back for the sausage!!

Great to see someone from the area posting!

Yeah, Hazelton's where my mom grew up and we have so much family there. The entire area just feels so homey to me

I have nothing to add to this thread. Lou Malnati's reigns supreme.
