Detroiter here, very confused when "Detroit-style pizza" became a thing, because I can't understand if people mean "deep dish pizza" like Jets, Papa Romano's, and Pizza Hut (maybe just Pizza Hut in Detroit?) or if they literally just mean Buddy's. Because a bunch of the things people ascribe to "Detroit-style pizza" are literally just done by a single chain with about 15 restaurants that people only go to because they serve beer.
I kind of think the latest "Detroit-style pizza" thing is just a result of Buddy's getting some VC money and doing a national advertising campaign.
I'll also add that I've never been to a local non-chain pizzeria anywhere in the Detroit area that did a "Detroit-style pizza." Either one of a dozen pizza-and-wings places or something like Hippie's Pizza is more the norm.
Actually the closest pizza place to me does pretty good ribs. Better than their pizza, anyway.
The push to call it Detroit style is I believe recent but it’s been around as Sicilian style for a bit. Jet’s is a National chain and does it. A bunch of places in Cleveland have it as Sicilian style too
Nope, Detroit style is the best.
Mmmmmmm tastes like depression and motor oil

Did you assume I was making things up, lol
Not sure this isn't a bit
Wait I was right omg
Welcome to Detroit history 85% of it is related to cars, 10% related to racism and 5% related to how we were an Underground Railroad stop.
Yes honestly

There's a really good place around here that does Detroit style and it slaps.
There are also decent Chicago-style places, but literally nowhere nearby that can do a decent New York slice.
Let’s just agree to a stalemate here :left-unity-2:
