The one thing different I learned from Chicago pizza makers is if you really want to up your crust game, use butter to lube the pan and then dust the pan with parmesan cheese the way you would dust a cake pan with flour. The cheese will caramelize to the crust giving it a crispy, nutty, tangy, cheesy goodness.
-
I absolutely love how you revisited your own recipe. It gives me a certain amount of comfort and confidence to keep cooking at home, knowing even the pros are always learning.
-
I think it's awesome that you revise and post recipes if you feel like they could be improved. Yet another reason why you're the best food youtuber. Thanks Bri!
-
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.
-
One of the things you do, and you do it much more explicitly than any other food YouTuber, is demonstrate order and multi tasking in your videos. I think that is such important teaching. I really think it makes fairly elevated recipes much more accessible. And you do it while maintaining a crisp watchable pace. Well done.

I waited tables at Uno's as a teenager. After adding the cheese layer, they parbaked their crusts which not only added a crunchy layer (texture), but also kept the crust from getting too soggy. It was delicious. A parbake would be good here, too.
-
Dude, I literally just re-watched the old recipe 2 nights ago to brush up because I'm hoping to make it this weekend, and then you put a new one out today lol
-
Advice for people who want to use cast iron: your pan will heat up very slowly compared to Brian's aluminum, so put the pan as low in the oven as you can so the top doesnt cook too fast. Dont skimp on the oil in the pan, either!

Made the og recipe about a week before this video came out, and admittedly was my first time eating a deep dish. I thought it was really great. So, I was pumped to try the 2.0 today (let the dough go for 48hrs). Had about 4 taste testers today and one stated "this is one of the best pizzas I've ever had". Another great recipe from Brian in the books! Can't thank you enough for all the great recipes and how you format your vids, keep up the amazing work!
-
I made version 1 about a week ago and agree, the flavors were spot on, the crust didn't get as crispy as I would have liked. Glad you made an update and can't wait to try it.
-
I made this last night and it's fantastic. And the sauce...OMG... delicious! Thanks Brian🎉
-
I’m a Chicago guy who loves deep dish so I will definitely try this once I buy the proper pan. Two weeks ago I had some meat lovers deep dish pizza from George’s on the northside of Chicago and it was very similar to what you’ve made here Bri. The only difference is he goes with us sourdough crust and put cornmeal in the pan before the dough. It was phenomenal.
-
I'm so glad you posted this. The oven in my new apartment has trouble going above 450, so I didn't think I'd be able to make my own pizza for a while, but this one might work.
-
We absolutely LOVE the old recipe. Looking forward to trying the new one!
-
I love this new idea of deep dish. And I love that you revisit previous recipes and try a new version. Can't wait to make this!
-
Just made the original recipe for a family gathering and everyone was blown away! So I would recommend both the original and the revised recipe, you can’t go wrong with either!
-
The ending credits dance feast is the best part of all your videos for me :))
-
Can't wait to try the new version! I think i've made the original version at least twice in the last few years, and it was still the best deep dish pizza I've created.
-
LOVE that you are open to revising recipes!
-
looks amazing gonna try it thanks Brian!
