Hey Everyone, I love this website! However, I am from chicago, born and raised, so there is a couple things I noticed are not quite "authentic". The main thing is the amount of sauce- with chicago style pizza, there is a good 1/4- 1/2 inch of sauce over the whole thing, with big tomato chunks as the main component. It completely covers the cheese- when you order a deep- dish pizza, all you see is red- no white from the cheese. So maybe, readers should double the sauce recipe for an authentic chicago pie :) Also, I agree with joy- I would try lou malnati's next time! It's my favorite out of all the chicago pizzas! Next is giordanos, and then Uno's/Due's and Gino's east tie for third.
