We tried Detroit style pizza in Detroit, hopefully this was authentic Detroit pizza….Let us know if it was!

[@vodengc520]

This looks exactly like my homemade Detroit style (the first place you went to). The only thing is that I don't have easy access to Wisconsin "Brick" cheese, which is I believe the traditional cheese for Detroit-style pizza. Instead I use a 50/50 blend of mozzarella and muenster. It's still absolutely delicious. That cheese crown is the best part, lol. The secret of the dough is high hydration, at least 70% (I usually go for 75%). That's what makes it super fluffy and airy instead of chewy and dense.

[@daveyhouston]

Is that the pink panther theme in the background???

[@wellingtonlima9879]

I used to be a chef in Boston. You guys are missing out on the East coast. Connecticut for pizza and Maine for lobster. Watch Mark Weins tour of New Haven and Maine for the lobster

[@georgekappos3222]

Only the tourists use a knife and fork. 44 years of deep dish an never used a knife and fork

[@JustMe-dc6ks]

Make sure to try some white pizza in NY as well.

[@Cody38Super]

The little burnt lace edge is GREAT!

[@thebritstry]

Yes, Done correctly it really adds to the flavor!

[@kevinprzy4539]

Detroit Style Pizza is so underrated imo

[@thebritstry]

we totally agree! Detroit style pizza is a hidden gem. Thanks for watching

[@romulus_]

it's starting to catch on. we have 3-4 spots here in oakland california. I went out to detroit last summer and had it at loui's -- reminded me of eating pizza as a kid in the early 90s.

[@MacGuffinExMachina]

Definitely my favorite, and I'm not biased. From Louisiana, where we have no regional pizza style... which honestly surprises me because New Orleans has a lot of Italians.

[@hamburglar83]

As a Chicagoan i think it’s the best pan/thick pizza. And it’s all over the country (in Chicago not counting jets theirs like 20 spots now)

[@nicholasemmons1755]

I agree but there is something extraordinarily special about New Haven pizza that makes it the clear number 1 here. Honestly can’t believe it only received 6% of the casted votes.

[@Cody38Super]

I'm so impressed with Nicola eating straight tomatoes....wtf?!

[@thebritstry]

Yay! 😀

[@rich_t]

The beauty of Detroit style pizza is you don't have to use a knife and fork as you would with a Chicago style.

[@thebritstry]

The topping is definitely not in danger of sliding off. 😀

[@The_Crucible714]

Chicago deep-dish is a “lasagna pizza” hybrid.

[@tony_25or6to4]

You don't have to use a knife and fork with deep dish, it's just easier when it's really hot. I've picked up a loaded Malnati's slice and eaten by hand.

Detroit style is phenomenal. That cheesy crust in the edge is soooo good, lol. 👍

[@thebritstry]

They were all great! The edges were perfectly crispy. 😀

Thank you for your kind words about the pizza! it was delicious! Let us know if there is anything else we should try?

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@chaddnewman2699]

I grew up in Tennessee in the ‘70s, when pizza wasn’t easily available in any form. My dad lived in Detroit as a kid in the ‘50s, before moving back to Tennessee. When I was a kid he would always talk about the pizza he had when he was a kid “up north.” I lived in New York and New Jersey in my 20s and 30s and never experienced the pizza he described. I was in Detroit a few years ago and finally realized what he was talking about. Really exceptionally good pizza.

[@thebritstry]

Thank you for sharing your personal pizza journey with us. It's heartwarming to hear how food can connect generations.

[@lindadeters8685]

My favorite is Chicago tavern style, which, you guys didn’t have, but, honestly most pizzas are good if they’re freshly made. Each has a place.

[@tejida815]

💯

[@thebritstry]

Sounds like we need to plan another trip back to Chicago! to give it a try. Thanks for watching

[@thaddaeusjohn]

I grew up in Detroit and it's the BEST pizza!!

[@thebritstry]

[@LouisLark-by7rb]

The Detroit pizza look delectable, quality, and cruchy. It actually reminds me of the Pizza Hut's franchise when their pizza use to be succulent. However- I immensely like your British infectious cogenial accents and authentic analysis of the foods. Your opposite perspectives are complimentary of your online camera chemistry.

[@thebritstry]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the Detroit pizza review and our different takes on the food.

[@wandar3578]

I have family who live in Detroit and I have tried Detroit style pizza. My uncle and his sons (who worked for General Motors and Ford) says that on a full pepperoni pizza, has two red stripes that run parallel to each other indicative of the Ford VS. Ferrari race at LeMans.

[@thebritstry]

That's cool! Who would've thought there was a pizza connection to a legendary race like Ford vs. Ferrari at LeMans? Thanks for sharing this fun tidbit!

[@kateg7298]

I love the story behind Detroit pizza. It's so distinct from New York and Chicago. My winner is Chicago pizza. The herbs are perfect, the sauce is thick ad spicy and the longer cooking time gives the flavors time to meld together beautifully. Giordano's is THE place. My mother and father in law own Renaissance Faires and we'd absolutely take over the place after a long day and hoover the pizza. Hunger is the best sauce, but nothing will ever be a better pizza to me.

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for sharing your Preference and your wonderful Memories! Sounds like we need to head back to to try Giordano's. New York Pizza Video is being uploaded on Saturday.

[@ik7578]

The sauce on top of the pizza is done in 2 stripes which represents when Ford beat Ferrari.

The twin stripes on the gt40 right?

Pie Sci is the science of pizza, not a play on Sci-Fi. They even have a Science Lab, which features weekly experiments in pizza.

[@stevenhaas9622]

Their Detroit style game is weak though.

[@thebritstry]

Pie Sci is more than just pizza - it's a whole pizza science lab! So cool to see them experimenting with different toppings. Thanks for watching

[@stevenfietz1154]

the caramelized crust is the best on Detroit style especially if they used Brick cheese from Wisconsin

[@thebritstry]

Yes, The caramelized crust if done correctly it really adds to the flavor!

[@Notstradamus]

I'm from Detroit... and I'm getting older, every day! When I was in Grade School, maybe in the late 1950's or early 1960's, I went to school with another boy, whose father (and Grandfather) were the original Founders of Buddy's! I have loved Buddy's pizza, my whole life... I don't think that will ever change... but I do also love the place at Michigan and Trumble, and a few others. Over the years, everyone (even the national chains that service the Detroit communities) off a pizza in the "Detroit Style."

[@thebritstry]

That is so cool! Honestly they were all so good. 😀 Detroit style pizza is amazing.

[@joevolpe512]

“Detroit style” is also Sicilian style just like my Nona and all of her sister in laws used to make. You spread a light layer of olive oil on the pan to get the crispy base.

[@thebritstry]

Oh wow! We feel that we need to go to Sicily now to try it. 😀

[@The_Crucible714]

I don’t know about the shape of the pan in Detroit. Here in NYC the thick, square pizza is known as “Sicilian” and the round pies are “Neapolitan” or “regular.” Fun fact; the “white” pizza was named “Margarita” after an Italian noblewoman who preferred a sauceless slice that was prepared especially for her in Naples.

[@thebritstry]

That's a cool pizza history lesson! New York and Detroit have their own unique pizza styles for sure. Thanks for watching

That’s the pretty standard method of eating all but the deep-dish Chicago pizza everywhere here in the US. We can always clock a tourist when observing someone go for the flatware while preparing to devour a slice! 😂

[@elkennedy9176]

Detroit style is my favorite style of pizza. Its deceiving. I love that I don't feel like I'm stuffed after eating it. It's airy and not so compacted.

[@thebritstry]

Your right! Detroit style pizza is very good! It's like a sneaky, delicious treat that doesn't weigh you down!

Told yah :-) Buddy's looks to have the most legit pepperoni of the three. When cooked properly it deforms into a "cup" with fatty pepperoni oil pooling in the "cup" and crispy perimeter.

[@thebritstry]

Thanks! Keep the suggestions coming. 😀

[@JesseLJohnson]

Its cup and char pepperoni not so much that its cooked right its that its a different kind of pepperoni. You can buy it and put it on a microwaveable pizza and it will still cup. I have had some that wasn't so good before though that tasted more like salami that cup and char pepperoni.

[@Trapper50cal]

@@JesseLJohnson It's partially the thickness isn't it?

[@stevenhaas9622]

@@Trapper50cal no. the cupping comes from using natural casings which shrink when cooked.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We love sharing our adventures and passion for food with all of you.

[@johnhelwig8745]

Detroit is my home town. Glad you enjoyed the visit. I enjoyed watching you. BTW Detroit style adds brick cheese (origins from Wisconsin) and that is what browns so nicely along the edge. Like Andrew, the burnt sides are my favorite part. BTW: I recommended your YT channel to the "BLANKS No One Asked For". They asked for YT channel recommendations they can collaborate with. Since they are a bunch of guys in North Carolina trying UK foods and snacks and you are Brits trying US foods, I figured it would be a good match.

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for the info!😀

[@erichallada910]

I live in Chicago and I eat Detroit style pizza a lot. I might eat Detroit style pizza once every 2 or 3 weeks. I usually eat 1 Chicago Deep Dish pizza each year. Anyone that lives in or around Chicago always says Tavern Style pizza is the way to go and what we usually eat over here. Deep dish is usually what tourists get when they come to Chicago because it is different

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for sharing! It's always interesting to see the local pizza preferences in different cities!

[@rocker76m88]

[@LilPetey2415]

If you are going to New York City, you should also check out New Haven, Connecticut, if you have the time, as they have been often rated as the top pizza despite being in a smaller city. The two big names there are Frank Pepe's and Sally's. Love your takes on food in the US!

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely add New Haven to my list for the next food adventure.

[@LilPetey2415]

@thebritstry i forgot to add Modern Pizza. Possibly the best of the bunch.

[@JoshColletta]

A bit of sports history behind the name of that first restaurant, as well: the corner of Michigan and Trumbull is where Tiger Stadium used to be before the baseball team built and moved to the new Comerica Park. Ernie Harwell, the longtime radio voice of the Tigers, would welcome listeners to each home game "at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull." Just about every Michigander who was around before the move knows that phrase quite well!

[@thebritstry]

Thank you for sharing this interesting tidbit of history! It's always cool to learn about the connections between sports and local landmarks. Thanks for watching

[@aliwantizu]

Detroit area resident here. Detroit Style is more like a Fruit Pie thickness whereas Chicago Deep Dish is more like Birthday Cake thickness. Chicago also has a very thin style called Tavern Style. Yes, Buddy's is the original, but I don't think they are the best. Michigan and Trumbell is named after the intersection where the old Tiger Stadium (where the major league baseball team The Detroit Tigers used to play) was located. It is Much better than Buddy's. Pie Sci and many other places (such as Jets Pizza) have the "Detroit Style" crust, but then a more "traditional" top with the sauce then mozzarella cheese then toppings. It's good, but not "real" Detroit Style. Detroit Style pizzas that also are better than Buddy's can be found just north of Detroit in nearby cities Hazel Park (Loui's Pizza,) and Royal Oak (Palazzo Di Pizza.) Thanks for sharing! ~Be Blessed

Visually, I'm going to say you guys made the right choice. I've yet to visit Michigan and Trumbull, but I've cooked professionally for over 30 years in Michigan and have tried a great deal of pizzas in the area, and have developed a Detroit-style pie of my own that does very well. That said, visually, the Michigan and Trumble pie looks absolutely off the charts! Perfectly caramelized edges. The sauce looks thick and caramelized. Great topping distribution. That cup pepperoni looks top-tier. Great pull on the mozz. Whoever developed this pizza REALLY knows their stuff. Hats off to their chef.

Wow, your description of our pizza has us craving a slice! we appreciate your support and hope you a chance to try Michigan and Trumbull soon! . Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!

[@patricialavery8270]

Detroit Pizza is probably descended from a type of Sicilian Pizza which was very bready and rectangular.It was called sfinciuni,and I have no idea how to pronounce that.lol.Alot of commercial American pizzas use Asiago,which is a very pungent cheese compared to mozzarella.Mozzarella has a nice milky taste when fresh.

They went to the Buddies tourist location. The key to Buddies pizza is the cast iron pans they have been using since the 40s. Cast iron pans get seasoned the more you use them adding a deep favor. That location doesn't have the original cast iron pans. It opened in 2016. Locals go to The Original Conant location in the hood for a Buddies pizza.

This is my favorite style of pizza. The way they get the bottom crispy is they put oil in the pan, so it's basically fried bread. Just a little vocab note - we call the whole thing the crust, not just the edges, that goes for any type of pie. Also the cheese isn't burnt, it's caramelized.

Detroit Style is very easy to make at home. Very forgiving dough for beginners. Chicago Style Pizza bakes for twice as long, that's why the cheese is less burnt. Traditional Detroit Style Pizza uses Wisconsin Brick Cheese and the Sauce is ladled on in lines, not full coverage spread. You oil the pan and the dough basically fries.

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for sharing that info! Detroit Style Pizza is delicious.

[@javiervigil2511]

I don't know how it compares but motor City pizza makes a frozen pizza that's in most grocery stores, and it's really good.

[@thebritstry]

We will have to try it to see how it compares. 😀

[@doomguy4607]

Detroit is my personal favorite. Chicago is a bit too much and New York is a bit too little (dough and cheese wise). Online it seems most people prefer new york style due to thin and crispy, but I just love a bit of a thicker soft dough that detroit nails without overdoing it! Also weirdly enough detroit style reminds me of 1990s pizza hut (which is a good thing)😂

[@thebritstry]

Detroit pizza is a wonderful style of pizza, we really enjoyed it. We wondered if Pizza Hut modeled their pizza on Detroit style?

[@hardtackbeans9790]

I'm a thin pizza guy. But Detroit is good too.

[@The_Crucible714]

Same. Give me a paper thin crust (that snaps when folded) and just the right balance of cheeses and sauce. I could expound extemporaneously at great length, extolling the joy of this Italian taste treat! Lol 😂

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for watching! we have a New york pizza video coming out on Saturday.

[@jeffbartholomew1152]

That looked so good

[@thebritstry]

Oh it was so good! 😀

[@The_Crucible714]

I swear I could have pizza for every meal the rest of my life and die happy. Particularly the excellent slices I was raised on during my formative years in Brooklyn. I hope they travel to arguably the best borough of NYC during their visit, particularly out to Bensonhurst or Cobble Hill. These are among the oldest Italian enclaves in the city and where the heart of the pizza beats loudest (and in my humble opinion, by far the best!). 😂

[@kimthames2531]

Thanks for the uplift after a tough day. Thanks for hitting my hometown of Detroit. Brick cheese is an American cheese. If you want to buy truly excellent preserves and jams try Michigan company called American spoon. You can order on line. The lemon curd is the best ever. But they also have a great fig, Marionberry and more.

[@thebritstry]

Ah you are very welcome! We hope your days start to feel better.

[@goldheart47]

That’s cool, the both of you are in search of the perfect pizza 🍕 😊

[@thebritstry]

Yes we are! New York Pizza video out on Saturday!

[@ericfredenburgh4577]

2 hours from San Diego in Culver City is a Vera Pizzeria Napolitano, there are 4 or 5 dozen in the US , if you have a pizza there , it will put American pizza in perspective, from thin and wood fired with San Marzano tomatoes all the way to the baked at cooler temperature thicker things like chicago and Detroit It’s called Cafe Ugo 3865 Cardiff avenue Culver City ca

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for the recommendation! we will definitely try and get there in the future.

[@gregbedford9706]

Welcome to Michigan! Come back for some coney dogs! Also, just travel up north for fun and vacation.

[@thebritstry]

Thank you for the warm welcome and the great suggestion! Michigan sounds like a fantastic place to explore more in the future!

[@MikeBoardley]

I was just at Michigan & Trumbull and ordered this exact combination. I loved the pizza. I think I preferred the white sauce pizza.

[@thebritstry]

That's amazing! The pizza was delicious.. That white sauce pizza with garlic is really good!

[@jimhoffman6979]

You guys make me want to try Detroit style Pizza in Chicago. It looks Great!

[@thebritstry]

It was sooo goood!!! Definitely give it a try if you get a chance!

[@Swatican]

Did you notice the sauce on top? It doesn't cover, it is 2 racing stripes to represent Motor City

[@thebritstry]

Oh that is so clever of them.

[@Buddha-ci8fz]

I have yet to try Detroit style pizza but looks really good!

[@thebritstry]

You should definitely give it a try, it's delicious! Thanks for watching

[@Cody38Super]

We knew who the brains of the outfit was....we didn't need location 2 to flush Andrew out.......;))

[@thebritstry]

Lol! We all know who the boss is!

[@jasonlebeau1288]

Detroit isn't deep dish. Deep dish, as you experienced in Chicago, is like a pizza crust swimming pool with a solid layer of cheese then traditionally sausage with your sauce filling the rest of the "bowl" along with any other toppings. The thick rectangular crust style of pizza is called a Sicilian or grandma pizza. Detroit pizza is basically this Sicilian or grandma pizza with the addition of a ring of cheddar baked around the edge of the crust. NYC, Chicago and Detroit are all great pizza places but I think you're really missing out by not going to New Haven, CT and getting possibly the best pizza in the world.

[@Noturavg82]

Detroit-style is my favorite

[@thebritstry]

Thank you for sharing your love for Detroit-style! we loved it too! Thanks for watching

[@kennethsajovie4473]

Chicago is awesome deep dish truck driver from Pensacola Florida

[@thebritstry]

You got that right! Thanks for watching!

[@noahwalker8359]

Michigan and Trumbull has the best Detroit style pizza out there, but Grandma Bobs is also just as good.

[@thebritstry]

Michigan and Trumbull was very good, we didn’t get to try Grandma Bobs. Hopefully we will try it next time we visit.

[@nathanwahl9224]

What a terrible chore having to go all around the country trying such great food!!! Nice work if you can get it! Looks like you're having a great time and it's fun to watch! If you drove to NY, I should have had you honk as you went past my house about 90 minutes out of Detroit. Have you noticed that we tell distance by how long it takes here, sometimes?

[@thebritstry]

Thank you so much for your kind words! It's definitely a tough job, but someone's got to do it, right?

[@markjacobs6484]

Great episode guys. I Am A Pizza Lover too and I am planning a similar trip like yours in my near future as well. Well probably visit some of the same places you guys did along with a few others through the South. Will also be doing something similar along the lines of the barbecue world. I have lived in Texas for most of my life so I have eaten in many great places already but I do have a few more on my list hers to go. After that I'm going to go to Kansas City, Memphis Tennessee, and the Carolinas. All of this is for the love of BBQ. Love the channel keep up the great work. Take care and be safe....Later.......

[@thebritstry]

That sounds like an amazing trip you have planned! BBQ adventures through the South, where do we sign up! LOL. We have just visited Kansas for the BBQ so we have a video coming soon.

[@markjacobs6484]

Hey, good deal. Looking forward to seeing it. Maybe it will give me some ideas on places to visit when I go to K C. I'm planning a road trip this Saturday to visit Bar-A-Barbecue in Montgomery, Tx. It was named to Texas Monthlys top 20 newest BBQ places in the state in September last year. So I feel the need to go check them out. Take care.

[@JenniferKlumpp]

I grew up in Detroit (actually in, not in the suburbs).. the sauce on the top is NOT a requirement. The requirements are deep dish, rectangular, and cheese all the way to the edge. Buddy's likes to insist that their way is the only real way, but they are wrong.

[@bradbertram7596]

Respectfully disagree. I'll agree that Buddy's is overrated and basically hot garbage, but I don't agree on your description of a Detroit-style. Rectangular, yes. The same as a deep dish... no. You're looking at it from a shape perspective. The dough composition and cooking technique is quite different. The dough is a higher protein from traditional dough, and it needs to have a higher oil content to fry in the pan to create that crisp texture on the bottom and sides. "Cheese all the way to the edge" is an adequate description, but I would argue that you need to actually stack the sides a touch to create the customary caramelized cheese barrier. "Sauce on top is NOT a requirement"... I just plain disagree. Sauce on top allows the oven to more readily caramelize the tomatoes. Do you have an example of a legit Detroit-style pizza that puts their sauce under the cheese? I'd genuinely love to try it, if so. Honestly not trying to gaslight you. Just in disagreement, and genuinely curious. Regards.

[@wendellgee11]

I predicted that this would be your favorite. Personally, #1 NYC, #2 ST. Louis, #3 Detroit. ❤

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for sharing your top 3 cities! we appreciate your input. sounds like we need to plan a trip to St Louis! the NYC Pizza video is out on Saturday

[@beridis111]

New Haven Connecticut has the best Pizza on the planet Frank Pepe's Apizza, Sally's Apizza , ,Modern Apizza and Zupardis Apizza should have topped the list or made it the 4th stop after New York its worth the trip because the any of the four places I listed would top the list ..you'll at least have to fit it in on another trip in the future I live near Chicago, while Deep Dish and its really good. its for the Tourists , the locals Eatr thin crust Tavern Style Pizza,, there's some incredible Pizza joints which Vito and Nicks tops them all! Go tavern style if you get back to Chicago defiantly need to get to New Haven for Apizza! in the future .your missing out dont forget to check out the Clam pie,,yes clams on a Apizza out of this world!

[@thebritstry]

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll definitely add these pizza spots to my list for my next trip. We couldn't fit it in on this trip but next time we will.

[@beridis111]

@@thebritstry when you are there fit in a stop at "Louis lunch" they are the original classic hamburger sandwich they have been around since the 1890's

[@stevenhaas9622]

Ain't no pizza like a Detroit pizza cuz a Detroit pizza don't quit!

[@thebritstry]

The Pizza was delicious in Detriot!! Which pizza shop is your favorite?

[@lledes01]

Just want to say Detroit may have made Nicola a tomato or tomato sauce fan. Detroit style pizza is amazing for sure. But there are a lot of incredible tomatos such as deep-fried green tomatoes.

[@thebritstry]

Detroit really knows how to work its tomato magic! Thanks for watching

[@lledes01]

The magic radiates around the state. You want a 10/10 video come back during apple cider, and donut season. Angels sing for that food and experience. Haunted house, yummy cider, snack after. No one on you tube has done it yet.

[@RealzFoSho]

Not "drip trays". A drip tray would normally be larger surface area to catch drips from a wider area. The pans were automotive parts trays. Line workers would keep parts in them for their assembly work. That's why they are the size and shape they are, not overly large surface area but fairly deep to keep parts from falling out when you have your hand in pushing them around to grab one, perfect to hold a bag of nuts or bolts.

[@thebritstry]

I appreciate the clarification on their purpose. It's always great to have viewers who know the details. Thanks for watching

[@the_tig]

You guys need to make it to New Haven, Connecticut to try their pizza. Sally's, Modern or Pepe are the ones to try.

[@thebritstry]

We are planning to do this soon!😀
