Born in Chicago and I find our pizza disgusting. If I wanted lasagna I'll make it. Same preference. Thin crust...and plenty of meat and Jack's is eating up one area of my freezer right now. 5 for $10 at Kroger this week. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Right now my favorite is Neopolatin style when I can get it. I lean more thin crust but will eat just about any kind except Pizza Hut. Whatever Pizza Hut does to theirs my colon doesnt agree. My favorite combo is bacon, onion, jalapeno, and pineapple. Come at me🤨. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hate Chicago Style Pizza Prefer thin & Crispy, but can eat thicker crusts as well. Hawaiian Pizza is my favorite. Ham and Pineapple are a perfect match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Louis-Style Pizza | Experience the Tradition Square pizza is best. I never knew square pizza existed until I met my wife from Illinois. An Illinois pizza chain called Monicals, thin cracker crust square cut and a delicious house made French style dressing. Funny to me pizza story. I worked at a really crappy pizza place called Mr. Gattis for a couple years in high school. Had an arcade. But the main attraction was the 54" tv. The Amish absolutely love IU basketball. Whenever they showed up for 9pm games, after we had cleaned up, the manager would make us fire up the oven and reset the buffet. So one night I told the pizza cutter to cut the cheese but not the crust. Watching them saw at the crust with dull spatulas was my revenge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m gonna have to try J Christopher. Texans make great food, Houston is like some kind of food capital, BBQ, Tex Mex, Steak, etc — but man they can’t make pizza here, it’s been killing me for years lol. I’ll hit up J Chris when I can thx for the recommendation. Grew up on Mother Bears, Garcia’s, Noble Romans, and our other favorite IU pizza places, trips to Chicago for Gino’s East.
