  1. 9:48 *happy chicagoan noises*

  2. I just got good at doing the old recipe. I do not have a food processor so can I do it in a stand mixer

  3. I made your first recipe. Liked it a lot but am excited for the updated crust. I’ll be making it this weekend! Thanks Brian!!

  4. ???? will fill it with spaghetti bolognese instead of pepperoni, tomatoes and italian sausage ???? can't wait!

  5. The ending credits dance feast is the best part of all your videos for me :))

  6. Geez, the opening shots had me drooling. Definitely looked legit. I'm originally from Chicago, still nearby. I'm a @GinosEast guy but almost ALL pizza is good! I approve of your changes to the original. I mean, shredded mozz? Really? (But then there's the whole "it's all good" thing so you get a pass.) I'm not sure yet how you got the cross-section to be more accurate this time but, seriously: LEGIT!

  7. Just ordered the fennel seeds, & when I get up I'll make the dough, then I'll wait 3 to 5 days to make it, because we all know, it is about the crust!

  8. I'm going to try this, but I'd probably blind bake my crust because I hate a soggy bottom. Thank you Brian!

  9. I love pizza and have making them for nearly 50 years. I made a deep dish a few years ago for my friend who also loves pizza. He would only eat one piece and I had to freeze it as I could only eat two. ( Second one was a mistake ). Sorry to say not a fan.

  10. Your deep dish was the first video I ever watched on your channel and also the first one I commented on. Absolutely insane it has been 2.5 years. Cheers to the next 2.5 years.

  11. Actually I think All Purpose Flour is perfect for a Chicago Deep Dish Pizza and Thin Crust too

  12. You gotta try to go for the Lou’s sausage disk instead of dollops to really bring some chicago nostalgia

  13. Deep dish pizza isn't pizza, it's a soup pretending to be a pizza.
