What is your favourite type of pizza? ๐
Personally, I'm partial to a thin crust cheese pizza folded and dipped into either hot sauce or ranch. But I also enjoy modest amounts of meat, greens and pineapple.
Detroit style!
My favorite type of pizza is "nearby and warm," though I'll happily settle for "nearby"
Personally I'm partial to free pizza.
Detroit style. The crispy corner pieces!
I like a good buffalo chicken pizza with red onions, slathered in blue cheese
Kebabpizza
Medium crust, Hawaiian. Extra onions
Olives, sundried tomatoes and italian sausage.
Caramelized onions, thinly sliced potato, fontina cheese (no tomato, mozz, etc.). I made it among other pizzas for Thanksgiving one year and it was the best by leaps and bounds.
A simple NY style slice with extra cheese. Maybe some Buffalo sauce to dip in if I'm feeling fancy
Definitely Chicago style, even if I can only eat it one time a year without my heart destroying itself it's still my favorite
I like a Calzone.
Okay this'll sound strange but hear me out. Red sauce base, kalamata olives, vegan feta, and lots of fresh mint. I've never been fancy enough to make my own pizza dough but when I'm assembling a pizza that's my go-to. It's so good.
I also have an unhealthy mint addiction btw
Cheese with both hot sauce and ranch, or black olive and pineapple. It's great because no one ever wants to steal any of my pizza.
I love greek pizza which is a white pizza with garlic, onions, spinach, feta cheese, and olives. But the place that made that best closed. I also like a bacon cheeseburger pizza, which is just bad for me.
Thin crust Italian style pizza, topped with tomato sauce, walnuts, thinly sliced Italian ham, and a mix of gorgonzola and mozzarella chunks. Heaven.
I like the meaty feast ones, particularly spicy ones. In fact, since discovering hot sauce a few years ago, I've been adding it to pretty much all of the pizzas I eat.
If I'm in the right mood, I also do enjoy a good ham and pineapple as well.
Plain NY slice from the window on the counter. Something about that 2nd heat up really brings the crisp out.
Pineapple pepperoni on a white slice
I will defend this hill with my life
I'm partial to the little cuppy pepperonis. I think they're called old world pepperoni. Not a lot of places use those pepperoni.
A fully original Margherita from a simple small pizzeria in a less touristy part of Naples. That's hard to beat (and usually really cheap for the quality you get)
Does it have to be just one?
There are so many delicious pizzas out there.
My favorite 'everyday' pizza is black olives with bannana peppers, thin or regular crust depending on mood. Mozzarella cheese with a little parmesan sprinkled on.
Any other favorites I have tend to be specific pizzas from specific places.
I Love steak pizza, but a lot of places I try it from are lackluster to say the least.
Meat too dry and lack of flavor is the most common issue.
A lot of the places just throw some cheap steak on top of a regularly prepared pizza. Regular pizza sauce and only mozzarella cheese = boring.
I've got a local place that does a decent steak pizza but is too expensive to justify more than once in a blue moon.
Dominos steak pizza is actually pretty good to me because of the cheese sauce they use. But it's Dominos sooo...
I like thin, crispy crust. I like garlic sauce over traditional tomato for pretty much any style other than Hawaiian (white sauce is too savory for the sweeter ingredients). I have no real favorite when it comes to toppings, only toppings I would never use (chicken, broccoli, BBQ sauce, and ground beef). Especially the chicken because it's always cooked twice so it just turns to bland rubber. ๐คข
I hella want that candied, caramelized jalapeno Hawaiian pizza I had when I went to the restaurant in a local brewery (Dustbowl Brewing Co.) again, right now. That thing was good.
Three meats with some hot sauce (Like red hot, sriracha or spicy tomato salsa) on top in thin crust. But pizza is pizza.
I made one recently that was pretty nice - tomato base, sliced (cooked) pork chipolatas, pineapple and cheese. Plenty of oregano and basil.
I don't really have one specific type of pizza, bounce around a bit.
When I was growing up, the norm for my family was thick crust, pepperoni, black olive. I like that, but I tend to feel that it's nice to have a bit more going on. That plus onion or chicken or hot sausage can be nice.
I do like Hawaiian, though that does tend to have more moisture than would be my ideal.
This pizza I make is my favorite pizza. Just some bacon under the cheese.
there's something that will always be special to me about the Round Table mushroom pizza, it is the perfect mushroom pizza and i've yet to find a local place to me that hits every time like that, no one slices the mushrooms as thin and they get too wet, it's such a great pizza
Salami
- Perfect balance over a wide range of cheese/sauce/... ratios
- easy to get right (=works everywhere)
- not soggy
- ...
Tuna
It's pretty common in Europe amd Italy itself, but for some reason not so much in the rest of the world. Especially with thinly sliced onions on top.
Also, Sujuk
It's like pepperoni, but a lot better
Crunchy thin crust, chili flakes, jalapeno, and pineapple.
I like em all (minus pineapple). The hipster pizzas are quite fun too
Thin crust, heavy sauce, mozz, pepperoni, jalapeno, pineapple.
Salami & Fungi
Always a little too much garlic...
Anything BUT pepperoni, I really don't care for it on a pizza
Calzone hand held style
I like several kinds.
I've posted before about the cast-iron pan-pizza I make myself, and that's the best I can do at home.
There's a local restaurant that makes not-really neapoletan pizza (the bottom is too thick and the oven isn't quite hot enough) but they have really figured out the flavor profile on their dough, sauce and fillings, netting excellent results.
At times I really crave and enjoy a Pizza Hut pepperoni pizza. I wouldn't call it my favourite, but sometimes it's exactly what I want.
They no longer exist, but there use to be a local chain of pizza restaurants that would make giant sheets of pizza in bulk, and let you pick three squares from three different (or the same) pizzas for a meal. They had a potato-rosemary pizza that I adored. I still want to eventually recreate something like it at home.
There's a new chain that popped up recently which I really like. They make oblong pizzas with a wholegrain dough, that they then slice into strips. The meals come with a sauce to dip the pizza-strips in. The result is delicious.
When it comes to toppings, I generally want a strong umami tomato sauce, mild cheese, and some kind of spicy meat like pepperoni or equivalent.
But I've also tried white pizzas (pizzas with no tomato sauce), pizzas where potato or even pears were among the toppings, and they can be absolutely delicious.
Domino's in the USA has / had? a Wisconsin five cheese pizza that is amazing.
Pan crust with Alfredo sauce and spinach is peak and redefines pizza.
I buy those canisters of pizza dough at the grocery store. Make a simple sauce by warning canned tomato sauce, adding a little olive oil, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and just a pinch of red pepper flakes. I spread the dough thin, add some olive oil and bake. After the doughs baked on its own for 5-6 minutes I add the sauce, spread spinach around and depending on the time of year some basil leaves from my herb garden, then top with mozzarella cheese. Continue baking until the cheese is melted.
Simple and refreshing.
Swedish suburb pizza, thin crust, full fat cheese, with ham and shrimp toppings, and some sauce bearnaise on the side. And a Trocadero soda to drink.
Ok, not necessarily my favorite but I want to shout out a Tandoori BBQ Chicken pizza I had the other day. It was like a standard BBQ chicken pizza (which, admittedly stretches the definition of pizza) and throws Indian food on it.
My favorite right now is also somewhat blasphemous; I fancy a good spicy pepperoni square pizza, done up Detroit style (but marketed Sicilian). Buttery, crispy crust, truly splendid.
Quick edit: y'all are also splendid. Great tastes all around!

Pepperoni. My favorite place to get pizza? Sal's Tomato Pies in Madison.
Marinara Starita in a restaurant called Starita in the city of Naples. Sourdough crust and amazing tomato sauce. After that New York style pepperoni pizza and detroit style vodka sauce deep dish.
This is probably not going to sound as good as it is, butโฆ.
Dominoโs Philly Cheesesteak pizza is amazing.
Recently have come to really like thin crust. I've been buying fresh pizzas from the store and adding my own slices of mushrooms, I like em thicc.
Tomato pie with ketchup, pineapple, and hot peppers.
