i dunno but I am gonna guess the ones who started cooking it in a woodfired oven and also bothered to rotate it during cooking

Damn I came into this thread thinking OP had a point, but....OP BTFO

They cook more evenly if they are

>>17569412
It makes sense for how the dough is formed. A dough mound is rested and becomes roughly spherical, and wants to stay roughly spherical. Flattening it evenly produces an end result that is roughly circular. Prettying up the rough circle makes it a nice circle, and thus you result in your common pizza shape.

A square shape is unnatural when looking at the process of making the dough, though it is possible (hence, your sicilian/detroit style).

Truly a 101 IQ take

The debate over New York slice vs Chicago deep dish vs Italian Neapolitan pizza is stupid when Detroit style is easily the best style of pizza.

Because that's just what happens when you spin the dough

best and most important post in this thread. detroit pizza is everything pizza should be

>>17569656
Just seems like a square shaped pan pizza to me

do you see the crispy dough? burnt and delicious cheese on the exterior? the way the sauce is on top so that it melts down into the cheese? the old style pepperoni?

growing up in michigan "detroit style pizza" was just the deep dish you got at jet's. it's neat to see it become a nationally respected thing

>>17569775
To be fair I've only really ever seen it in Chicago. Hope it goes national

Thin crust/Non-deep dish pizza here that isn't complete trash is relatively hard to find and Detroit style is a nice respite from deep dish, which is great but definitely not something you can eat more than once a month max.

Years ago in the upper midwest I stopped in at a small town dinner. I ordered a piece of pizza from the menu. What I got was a six by four inch blob of red sauce, cheese and bread. I was like, holy fuck this ain't no pizza. I tried a forkful and damn it was good. Square, round, I don't really care. If they know how to make pizza it's all good.

Has there ever been a restaurant or chain that specializes in triangle pizza? And no, i don't mean normal pointy pizza slices in a circular pizza. I mean a triangular-baked pizza cut into smaller triangle slices.

Imagine picrel, but as a pizza. Perhaps each side has a traditional crust, or maybe it's made like a thin or pan pizza.
